Honestly, I think there are many handheld games that are up to console quality. For the most part, I think that handheld games are made so that you can play the game for 10 minutes (many times even less) and stop, or go 2 hours at a time. Console games often do not allow you to do that. Usually you need to play in at least 30 minute bursts to get anything out of a console game.
I used to not play handheld games very much, but I play them almost exclusively now due to being able to play them in places where I can't play a console game and being able to stop at a moment's notice if anything comes up.
I honestly don't understand why someone would not play a handheld, really.
