It is unfair to compare Consoles to Handhelds

IMO it is.

Consoles often go to families were there is only one but there may be a couple DS or PSP for individual people. I remember I had gameboy and my brother had a gameboy.

So I dont like it when people go DS>Wii>PSP>PS3>360. They should be completely seperate. DS>PSP and Wii>PS3>360. They do not directly compete with eachother so we should stop acting like like they do.

This is all imo. What do you think

I completely disagree with this part. All entertainment is competing for the same money. If money is spent on the DS, that is money that can't be spent on any other console or handheld. One console or handheld's success hurts all others in terms of potential sales.

Right on

I often go to the game store and say "I need a new game" and I look in the DS and Wii sections then if I see nothing that interests me I browse the used Gamecube and PS2 titles. 

99% of the time I have layed the ds has been in my house so I say portable is merely a feature of the game system of choice.
