thats the thing handheld vs home console. tell me when the Wii passes it becasue then it will be the same market. |
It's the same market when the same types of games are made for the same demographics. |
you try to take a Wii on the road with you. It wont be very entertaining. handheld gaming is gaming on the go not gaming in a room in your house. |
Only about 20% true. A lot of people play DS in their living room, bedroom, bathroom..... but in their house. Mostly because the act of being mobile requires your mobility to be performed for you - you can't drive while playing a DS, for example, at least I wouldn't recommend it. And for that matter, Wii seems to have a pretty portable nature itself.... easy to hook up, one chord, small.... it's great to carry in a laptop-sized case while on the go... in the motel, at your parents', to and from the dorm room, etc etc. |
you have to remember that handhelds were designed for cartrips, taking to school and playing during breaks, plane trips, etc. And you know what I was meaning. The fact you dont have to have TV in your car to play it or use a TV is the main concept of portable/handheld gaming device. Its the same thing with computers Desktops arent supports to be moved around a ton. Of course people do it. Is it practical? hell no. Useful in a BYOB comp, hell yes. lol |
another point is that handhelds are more inexpensive, yet they seem to not get any big franchises, but thiis seems to be changing.
Example Dragon quest 9
