I disagree. They're different entities. I almost never see any threads or discussion about handheld games on gaming sites on the internet. Consoles is where it's at.


Well there should be and I think that more people are going to recognize what has happened in the industry of videogames. Things have changed this generation compared to previous ones escpecially in Japan where a lot of highquality and big titles are announced for portables where they previously would be developed for consoles. It wasn´t like this previous gens but it sure is very clear today. I used to think the way you do but there is much evidence today that all systems share the same arena and compete with eachother and therfore should be compared.

It hasn't yet changed in the west, though. Just because Japan is now handheld dominated, does not mean the west will follow (though it's possible).

Slimebeast seems to be primarily interested in western games, and western devs have yet to put their major titles on handhelds. Until this starts to change (if GTA Chinatown Wars sold tons), I don't see the problem.
