Handhelds use to focus on pick up an play games. Games that don't require much of an investment time wise. Console games, on the other hand, required a person to sit down, get comfortable and dedicate large portions of time playing a game.

That's what "console quality" means.

Really? I've marathoned handheld games for 10+ hours before. Just because handheld games are structured to accomendate a pick up and play mentailty, doesn't mean that I'm forced to conform to that mentality. There's also no rule that says I can't play a home console game in 15-30 minutes sessions, and considering how different genres are structured, it's completely possible for the majority of console games.
