[QUOTE="Heil68"]I'm afraid so. I made a mistake and bought both a PSP and DS and guess what..MOST BORING THING EVER. Jesus. I'll never buy another handheld. Eponique

>Didn't play Pokemon

Mobile gaming had The Elder Scrolls in the GBA era.

>Didn't play Astro Boy
>Didn't play Megaman Battle Network
>Didn't play Castlevania
>Didn't play Phoenix Wright
>Didn't play Golden Sun

Lemmings and ex-lemmings shouldn't play handheld wars, they would get hurt. See: Windows Phone 7.

I've played both the GBA and DS Castlevanias :x

Except you never did that, did you? What did I ask of you in spite of repeatedly being abused? That you understand my love of handhelds and buy a 3DS. But you wouldn't even do that!!!charizard1605

I'll buy one from the UK in a few months. Consoles prices are ridiculous over here.

Then we may yet have a future together. (how ridiculous? They can't be worse than India. The Xbox 360 launched at $400 for the Core system, and $500 for Premium. The PS3 launched for $1000).

[QUOTE="Another48hours"][QUOTE="ShadowDeathX"]Handhelds > Home Consoles. More unique games + Little shared library with PC = Win!

You mean unoriginal games made by devs to lazy or too dumb to move onto real hardware and still make prev gen games that all play a like with some exeptions? Like the fact the jrpgs people were complaining about the whole gen was somehow better on the DS when the majority of them did the same thing they were complained about for on consoles?! but somehow Jrpgs are good on portables magically because?

There is a reason why they don't move to consoles. Majority of console gamers won't give those games a chance. They are just going to go buy the same games from the same game serieses every year.

Not really, we accept each other's flaws and learn to live with them. That's what a relationship is like, it demands sacrifices.

It's clear your relationship is in shambles. You should ditch him while you can.

[QUOTE="Another48hours"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] Now you're sad? Should have thought about it before you acted stupid :cry:

And well, handheld wars are boring because NINTENDO ALWAYS WINS. It's a given. It's a monopoly. What would you expect?

And before last gen, there literally was nothing but Nintendo. No wait, there was the N-Gage.

charizard1605

and the NGPC, a nd a bunch of popular thing like Gp2x, and Zodiac which all sold more but hey you don't know that those are so they don't exist.

In the GBA generation One belongs to the pre GBA era, so it doesn't count, one was never released outside of South Korea, and one sold like 200,000 units. Yep, those ones totally belong to this discussion.

NGP is considered GBA era because that's what sites keep putting it in whether it belonged or not.

Both zodiac and Gp have WW models. GP announced 40 million units sold in the post in an article about korean tech. How much did the GBA sell again?

GBA sold more than double that 82.14 million units sold worldwide I'm interested in seeing a link to the 40 million GP units sold worldwide though

Not like either had games or anything.

I agree. There have been plenty of cases of retail games being moved to XBLA/PSN/Steam and vice versa.

true that. How much did it sell in the US?

they stated in the article that U.S. brought slightly more than have. So I would say 25 or so million. Even though strangely, Gp ignores the fact it did well, adn focuses on the fact that their native asian countries didn't buy it as much, and decided to release all their exclusive stuff only in asia and I also heard there manufacturing site and stuff can only be accessed from there (Their real one.), but too be honest, this is just plan nationalist BS and they should have expanded on that, GP has never gotten numbers like that before or after. Too bad they don't give out info or discounts or anything outside of Asia since then. Even though it makes no sense business wise. Idiots. i wanted to see how much the Caanoo sold and what games I could have gotten for it :(. Although, even at 25 mill, I think they still lost since you said the total was 85 ww. But tell me the numbers anyway.

Whatever you said was irrelevant to the argument. MS bought Twisted Pixel because they want them to XBLA games. It has nothing to do with handhelds.

What is a GP? I hope you're not talking about the NGP. That was a disgusting flop, Vita has probably outsold it WW by now. No way it sold 25 million in the US. If you're talking about GamePark then that's worse because it wasn't released outside Korea and did terribly in Korea itself.

Oh that.

Yes, XBLA games have very low revenue compared to console or even handheld retail games. Twisted Pixel is a tiny dev that makes tiny revenue/profits. Falcon makes more off PSP games, and Marvelous looks like a billionaire in comparison.
