Handhelds vs. Consoles

Which do YOU prefer?

I prefer handhelds, because...

Well, that's self-explanatory.

LTS originated on a handheld.

Handhelds - 2
Consoles - 3

Re: Handhelds vs. Consoles

Handhelds, because you can play them where ever you go!

Console- better game quality, better graphics, and better selection of games.

Yes. But how would you like it if I compared a GAME BOY COLOR against an XBOX360. Unfair? I think yes.

Re: Handhelds vs. Consoles

Handhelds. They are portable (duh  tongue ), usually cheaper.

Also, the handheld vs. console graphics fight is invalid. Handhelds have much smaller screens, and you can't see tiny details on it. It doesn't matter if it not as powerful, because the screen can't show it.

I asked which you LIKED better, not what IS better.

Depends on which game you play though. Pokemon HeartGold vs...let's say...Where's Waldo?

In that case, I think PS3/XBOX360, cuz PS3 has 3D Dot Game Heroes, a great parody, and it has LBP2, and the 360 has Halo Reach. You can't question the awesomeness of Halo Reach.

I think consoles, because of course, better graphics, better games, better multiplayer, better EVERYTHING.

Where's Waldo isn't even a console game.
How about, Halo Reach against, say, Pictochat?

I'm trying to prove that neither consoles or handhelds are better than each other; it's a matter of opinion.

Yes, although I play some of the exclusives for it. Everything else is on the 360 or PS3.

I wasn't! Where's Waldo was for the NES I believe; HeartGold came much later. Comparing...Portal 2 to Pokemon Red, for example, wouldn't compliment the previous statement. I'm NOT trying to say that; I'm trying to say "It depends."

To prove the number of votes for consoles has to equal the number of votes for handhelds. Adding onto my opinion, the DSi's L&R buttons wear out faster that any of the consoles'.
