Like the title says... When I was young (I'm getting old now) portable consoles were all the rage. My Gameboy went everywhere with me. All my friends had one and with a link cable and tetris we had hours of fun. Now with the advent of high power smartphones things like the Vita and DS just don't seem to have the pull they use to. Personally I'd rather have real buttons and not a touchscreen but maybe I'm becoming the minority...
