Dammit Sony, you just had to improve upon it and then you went and fucked it up with the Vita :/
and now the steamdeck replaced all of them.

honestly with how bulky and heavy it is it's pushing the limits of portability. gone are the days of pocket transport! or maybe I should just get oversized pockets lol
It is more portable than a ps4/5 as some people will say that.
But steamdeck is right now the most "portable" modern device with the best price / performance value. it cant be carried like a ds in your pocket thats for sure but with a nice package it is pretty good to handle.
true true I love mine but I'm always scared to bring it anywhere because I feel like I'm gonna end up dropping it

jncos ARE coming back
My niece showed up to Thanksgiving in a pair of them and was lecturing her brother on how he doesn't understand baggy clothes. I was like I lived through the last time these were popular and I still don't understand it.

laughs in Steamdeck
Huh excuse me?! Have you seen the handle on the GameCube?
The Vita stands as the best when hacked and paired with a sd2vita.
Now, but when it was released, it sucked. I think it's biggest downfall was they didn't add a UMD drive to it so it wasn't backwards compatible with any of the PSP games. If they kept that, it might have sold well.
Not to mention those stupid overpriced memory cards.

Sony’s industrial design is second to none. The PSP still feels amazing to hold, despite being an antique.

PSP really was the shit man.
From chains of Olympus to birth by sleep to dungeon siege trone.
Than the vita came and fucked it all up, used it for two games, danganronpa 2 and binding of Isaac.
Fr, it truly felt like I was just playing a pocket version of a PS3. I took mine EVERYWHERE, and played it WAY more than my DS lol
And those "portals" you could load on to the memory stick and access via the web browser with games n shit lol
Idiot. All I need is a Nokia with snake
Nah they fucked it up with the sliding PSP Go. If they continued and improved on the original PSP design, it would most likely be competing with the Switch at the moment.
Serious question because I never had any handhelds back in that era, but what made the Vita suck? I've heard there's some great games on it despite opinions about the console and it's always been unanimous that the PSP was great, but how did Sony screw it up? Not going out and buying either one right now, but I never really see specific reasons mentioned.
They dropped the UMD drive and replaced it with that gimmicky rear touchpad thing is probably the biggest reason.
They dropped something incredibly functional and would have given the Vita access to the entire library of PSP games at a time when it needed that library the most to compete against the smartphone (Vita was released in 2012)
I think the 3DS/DS were able to remain dominant so long even in the face of strong competition from the rise of the smartphone was because of the deep library of older titles to keep it going forward.

Nah, DS Lite was the sweet spot. Best of both worlds with GBA and DS game selection, pocket sized.
Shame the hinges crap out on it though.

No psp was complete junk. The psp version of games were so bad compared to the original. The disks were expensive, shit selection, one analog stick and a bad one.
Gameboy sp was the best handheld.

I said a read portable console!: a smartphone
I never had a Vita so idk what was wrong with it. I did have two variations of the PSP and the only thing that was bad about it was the available library. There wasn't a lot of really good games for it. The metal gear spinoffs, SOCOM, and Work Time Fun are all I even really remember playing more than just once or twice.

nah bro it was Nokia N-Gage
Where is the Gameboy Micro?
Or did it already win and this is for second place?
I do love my Switch Lite tho. Never had a single issue with it, while my wife's normal Switch can't keep working joycons to save its life. Vampire Survivors does bog the framerate occasionally though.
