Gentlemen, how do we "fix" handheld gaming?

Gentlemen, how do we "fix" handheld gaming?

I wasn't aware it needed fixing.

We'll see what the switch does.

If Sony manages to produce another handheld, don't go the Vita route and produce a garbage library. Just make a good PSN / remote play / PS1/2 emulator machine.

Done.

Make a phone/console like the ngage but not shit. Dont make garbage "mobile" games like mario run EVER.


Who am I kidding, normies eat that garbage up....

I've had more fun and immersion on my 3DS than I've had for a long time. Handheld gaming is fine.

>I've had more fun and immersion on my 3DS
What were you playing?

The Zelda remakes, Etrian Odyssey and SMT games.
Hours and hours of fun.

>Switch is too big to be considered a real handheld
>Vita killed any change of a successor
>3DS was good but is basically being superseded by Switch
>Nintendo focusing more on mobile
there won't be a true handheld this coming generation

sell it as a console gimmick

True, but I literally just want a handheld to play in bed.

Release games

Why should we care what Bob thinks about gaming?

>Switch is too big to be considered a real handheld

This is bullshit.

Is it a self contained console that you hold in your hand?

It's a fucking handheld.
End of story.

I like the size increase with the switch. Handhelds were never small enough to be 100% portable. I always needed a bag. That micro-GBA thing would be the only real exception.

>b-but they fit in MY pockets!
Whatever kind of monster you may or may not be, you are a minority.

>>Vita killed any change of a successor
lol

>unpocketable
>sticks jut out too much to even hope to keep it in the largest pockets comfortably, so you'd need to detach the buttons each time you put it away even if you have an 8 inch pocket
it's a tablet that's also a console.

>muh pockets

Is it called a pocket-held console?
No.
It's called a handheld console.

>dude just keep your handheld in a bag like a fucking laptop it's still perfectly mobile

>handheld
>shit battery life due to power-draining games

yeah no
it's a home console with portability

Leave mobile gaming to us

I've never in my life seen anyone actually put a handheld gaming system in their pocket.

what do they do with it then?
don't tell me you're the kind of manchild that carries around a backpack everywhere, or worse a manpurse

What's the point in a handheld if you need to cradle the thing in a bag to even use it out of the house?
This is why smartphones are taking over.

Its alrrady fucked. Underpowered gimmicky shit is all nintendo pushes for and Sony just said fuck the vita.

They might make a successor but literally only for japan.

We need some console level power
The ability for local multiplayer
Proper sticks and shoulder buttons

Time to Switch it up!

ok

>vita has no games but has great hardware
>3ds has games but is held back by its shit hardware

>>vita has no games

That's just a meme.

DELET THIS

The Vita just needed to use Micro SD instead of that shitty proprietary bullshit they overcharge for. It's one of the reasons stopping people from buying it.

vita has a ridiculously huge library...just not the game you want for it.

That and the audience for pantsu quests isn't that big.

you cant really put the vita in your pocket either

With that criteria Sony never had a handheld saving the PocketStation or whatever the hell that Japan only thing was called.

we don't need to, it's pretty okay, friend
