Which do you prefer, handheld consoles or at-home game consoles? I tend to prefer handhelds, they're just so convenient. I can take it wherever I go, but I can't do that with home consoles. Don't get me wrong, I love my home consoles as well, I just prefer handhelds over them. Handhelds also have Pokemon.

 

What's your opinion?

While so far my Wii U has been collecting dust as opposed to my 3DS, I much prefer home consoles because there's a magical feeling about sitting at home in your own couch staring at your own TV with a glorious 1080p experience. You just can't replicate that experience on a handheld.

It's hard to chose. It all comes down to games, and right now, 3DS is my favorite console... So I have to say that right now, I prefer handhelds.

Why can't I prefer both? They both offer different gaming experiences. I love them both.

Home consoles, better graphics and better games. :)


Hi, my name is Alph. I live on a planet named Koppai. I am famous for saving my planet from starvation. My best friends are Brittany and Captain Olimar, NOT Captain Charlie. I like surfing the KopNet and playing Kopetball.

I like both, and kid icarus uprising really showed that console quality games could be on handhelds.

Both for me, they fill different needs.  I play my 3DS when I'm out and I play my Wii U at home.

So the President of NoA STILL goes to school? O_o

 

And as for this thread, i pick handheld consoles because they have more library of games than home consoles do.

I wouldn't say one is better than the other, since they both have pros and cons. However, right now I have been playing more of my handheld gaming devices lately, because of the fact that i'm on the go a lot of the time.

I'm most fond of my 3DS. I can play anytime, anywhere. The games are there, and I love them. Consoles are a different story. While it may have the better and grander experience, I'd get more out of it on handheld.


Some people always have a cellphone on them. I'm so awesome I always have a 3DS.
