Portable Systems

One interesting topic in regarding to consoles are portable ones. I myself have three portable gaming consoles the oldest one that I have is the original GameBoy Color. I used to love this gaming console because it would allow you to play your favorite games on the go especially entertaining when on road trips. It was a bit big but it did its job some of the most famous games were pokemon games they were a big hit in the late 90s. Everyone wanted to battle with each other so they had to buy the multiplayer cable. This is a very interesting topic since the years past they started to develop smaller versions but then all of a sudden they came out with the Playstation Vita and then the Nintendo DS 3d these are huge and can barely be put in your pocket. Whats the point of developing these kinds of “portable devices” if they are not small. It all ties back to the consumer they want bigger screens but for what might as well stay home on your TV. Now that we have smartphones that we can play games in does this market really make anymore sense because I hardly see any portable gaming systems around I used to see kids everywhere that had them now I hardly do. Portable vs the in house Tv consoles. Do people just prefer to buy TV consoles let me know what you guys think about this topic.
