The mobility of handhelds is nice indeed. I was not a big handheld fan, but just recently, I started to really appreciate how convenient they are. I am having some problems going on lately, and having something so nice and portable to play has been relaxing, and I’m starting to really enjoy handhelds more than I used to. I even decided to splurge and get a 3DS, which I originally didn’t want, and I am having the best time with it. I haven’t had this much fun with a handheld before ever, but being able to sit anywhere and just relax is great. Not that it’s stressful that console games are more limited where you can play them, but that added flexibility has just been really nice right now.

Having given up my DS several years ago, I didn’t realize how much I had missed mobile gaming until I got a tablet. Though it’s not quite the same thing as having a dedicated gaming device in hand, I love the fact that I don’t always have to be tethered to a TV to play a game. Plus, most of the games I play on-the-go tend to be very easy going (it’s not like I’m revving up for some FPS action while on the bus), so they provide nice respites from the world’s distractions.

If they ever happen to bring a version of Animal Crossing to Android devices, I definitely make note to check it out.

That’s the thing with Animal Crossing though, there is no story. You kind of just make it up as you go along.

I’ve never gotten along well with handhelds. I love console games the most and play them every day. I get rather upset if I go without them, so when I play handheld games, they are in addition to console games, which ends up cutting into my time. But, you are right, you can play handheld games when other things are going on. That’s not so simple for a console game. Next to impossible, really.

And I never played the handheld “Animal Crossing” games. I played the one on the Cube and Wii, and I am going to sell the Cube one because the new one is the same thing with more features. And who knows if I’ll continue to play the Wii one, as when I have limited time for games, I don’t know if I want to spend it fishing and delivering packages. Perhaps a handheld “Animal Crossing” is the way to go, then, I can still spend my console time fighting evil.

Never played that game. But i think Handheld games are still strong and i still enjoy them. Depending on the story, I would follow games into hell :-)
