Handhelds are not consoles..

Aaah, the eternal debate. Isn't the definition of a Videogame console just any device whose main purpose is playing videogames? If it is, then they count.

Well, honestly there is little to debate. We just need to check any dictionary. let's see the Merriam Webster:

5: an electronic system that connects to a display (as a television set) and is used primarily to play video games

Counter with Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_console

"A video game console is a device that outputs a video signal or visual image to display a video game. The term "video game console" is used to distinguish a console machine primarily designed for consumers to use for playing video games in contrast to arcade machines or home computers. It includes home video game consoles, handheld game consoles, microconsoles and dedicated consoles."
