I don't get the "not pocket-able = not portable" comment. Are iPads, eReaders, and laptops not portable? It fits easily in a backpack or messenger bag for a flight, road trip, or playing on public transit. Doesn't that cover like, 90% of portable play scenarios?

Don't get me wrong, I really like that the 3DS was pocketable, and sometimes I did slide it in my pocket. But mostly it lost out on pants real estate to my phone, keys, and wallet.
