I cannot quote all that. I'll just say this regarding my jack of all trades quote. I don't have a particularly good memory, and that's not what i saw when i looked back at my posts. yeah, guess that was a shot at the PSP, based on its mediocre performance in the areas aside from gaming. As I say, if it's going to do everything, it's not always going to do everything well.

The games are in fact the only thing i like about the PSP. That's why i bought it, that's why i buy every console. They have games I cannot play on other hardware. To pass those games off as bad because they're not for a specific system is frankly... retarded. It's also known as fanboyism.

I don't like the audio playing capabilities, because it provides you with a giant list of everything you have in your folder, in a completely un-customizable order. The files cannot be played anywhere except for this menu.

I don't think the PSP sucks at all. I have some dissatisfactions with it. I also have a few gripes about the DS. Neither is perfect, perhaps neither is better.

I do apologize if I've inadvertently taken any personal jabs. When i get into a debate, I think i tend to do that sometimes. I did not mean that you were talking too much, just that you systematically addressed every single point in my posts, something I don't usually have the patience for.

I'll concede that the 3DS oughta have USB support. I don't view it as perfectly necessary, but you're right. It probably doesn't actually cost that much, and it wouldn't be that hard to put in. Though given the 3DS' rather large price, I'm still not sure they need to be paying for video, audio and image codec licensing fees in addition to money spent on hardware.


And, when I listen to music on my PSP I always note that after about a minute it'll skip to the next song and say corrupted data on that song unless I re-insert the stick.. Just thought I'd point that out as we were taking jabs at PSP's other capabilities than gaming

No, no, no, no, no. I do not want to see the 3DS becoming a multimedia device. Damnit, mobile phones do all of that now - web surfing, IMs, video and audio playback - and they're rarely ever not in our pockets. So why the heck would Nintendo have to bring any of that to their handheld consoles? We want to play games on them, that's all we've ever wanted to do on them for 20 years! The proposed movie playback will either never get off the ground or will flop like a Magikarp, and it's not like people actually used the DSi as their main music player or web browser either. Which is something I'm happy about. Leave the multimedia nonsense to Apple and Sony, and leave Nintendo to do what they're best at - making and marketing games.

    I want a handheld gaming system with a tablet sized screen, like a 8 or10" screen, with controllers that can detach like the Switch.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol
