I have a feeling this is a duplicate... anyway:

Handheld: 3DS
Console: Gamecube
Mobile: iPhone/Pod
Overall: Gamecube

I don't see why the GBA SP would be better than the DS when the DS plays games for both

Nononononono.
GBA SP is a freaking classic.
Original and Lite DS can play only GBA games,
But the GBA SP can play every Game Boy game ever made.

Oh. I didn't know that. I've only ever had an advance and an SP so there aren't any GB or GB color or any other kind of games I'd be trying to play.

"freaking classic" is not any sort of actual argument.

The original DS was released only 1 year after it, and video games are so relatively new that their timeline is confusing, but are either old enough to be classic.

Besides the SP is just a remake of the original GBA so wouldn't the GBA be more qualified for the title? There's not functionality lost between the two afaik

Anyways it is all open to opinion to "guys what are you doing" implies that people are being wrong.

By classic I really only meant that it will stand the test of time.

I don't know man, I see a lot more people with DSes (mainly Lite but it is pretty much the same) 9 years after its release than I do 10 years after the GBA SP.

I think most even somewhat decent consoles stand the test of time in some way. The NES I wouldn't call the greatest gaming system. Influential, important, etc. yes, and the games are fun, but only a few of them are as good as the games releasing now.

People will be nostalgic for the Wii, PS3, and Xbox in 10 years and the fun games on them won't be diminished by the newer ones.

I think that nostalgia has this sort of cycle, where it goes from it starts out brand new, everyone loves it, new thing comes out, old one slowly disappears from mainstream attention, but still lingers in a way that people will feel nostalgic for them and look back to the past.

Yes, that's what nostalgia is...

Guys what are you doing.

GBA SP is obviously best handheld.
SNES is best console.
Nexus 7 is beat mobile (but that's a tablet so who cares).

Hey, just because it is your opinion doesn't mean it has to be everyone else's.

Ugh, okay, I just don't word things correctly sometimes!

I understand, I've run into similar problems too.

I'm sorry to ruin your nostigal feeling but... GBA > DS

                                                             ?

Do you understand the concept of opinions? I personally don't prefer GBA to DS, but that isn't fact.

Sorry if this came off as a bit mean, my point is: don't make it seem like you think your opinion is dominant.

Consoles come from different times, so they're all different in a way. The Wii had motion-controlled controllers, the XBOX had multiplayer games and etc. etc.

I think that it depends on what games your interested in. Like Family games, FIrst Person Shooters, Adventure Games, CLassic Games, ect.  I prefer Xbox because Im into first person shooters, and PS#s are a little expensive. If your into Classic Games, or Family games then A wii  is good for you. I have both and love each of them.

Ok, guys, calm down. I didn't ask, " Why is your opinion better than everyone elses?" so seriously, relax. [/offtopic]
