The thing with the handheld market against mobile has always been the clash between quality software and accesibility. Everyone has a phone, everyone has access to the sea of FTP mobile offerings, and no dedicated handheld console is going to take that away from mobile. But it is also irrelevant due to the nature of the mobile market itself: it thrives on convinience over depth, and a 1000$ piece of hardware limited only to the games (and control scheme) of a phone is doomed to fail against a dedicated gaming hardware that has access to quality software. The only exception to this is Apple, and that's mostly due to brand recognition.
