This might sound weird but I always like taking a handheld with me when I go to work or go out for a while in general. It helps with my anxiety knowing I can play a game to calm me down even if it’s just for like 20 minutes in the bathroom. My favorites to carry are a 3DS, switch, or vita.
I used to carry around my 3DS for that connecty matchy thing that I don’t remember cause it’s sitting my bedside table for the passed 10~ years.
well, yea that’s what the phone is for.
it’s a ‘safety zone’
I want my hand held
What?
I want my HANDHELD
You want me to hold your hand?
Used to. Then I finished the 3DS Backlog. Switch doesn’t fit in my pocket, especially with a pouch which I prefer to have, so it mostly stays home
I bring technology on vacation in case I can’t sleep or something. I agree, it’s hard to find great mobile games, but I can’t find pocket space for a handheld or controller for emulation.
You unironically sound like a “do you have any games on your phone” type of person.
If anyone has had those torturous dark days of unexpected 4 hours stranded, they would understand always carrying like a switch just in case. Even if you dont turn it on more than 20 minutes a week. Its about that one time.
No, I like handhelds but more just to play on the couch, I never really bring them anywhere unless I’m staying for a couple of days.
I bring my Steamdeck to work every day, but I might actually use it once per week
To e to of I’ll put 5 be qm
Reach out to a therapist.
No.
My phone is a glorified Gameboy. I’ve got every emulator I can download and about a thousand games for NES/SNES, Gameboy, Sega, N64, and PlayStation. As long as I can plug in for power I am unstoppable!
I want emulators on my phone 🙁
Stop buying Apple.
If I’m expecting to be out for days or more, I’ll bring my 3DS. I might not use it, but at least I have the option. Mostly, I bring a tiny Tetris handheld with me, fits in my wallet.
the most hand held thing I carry around is my smartphone or ipad these days. If I’m traveling then a laptop.
My switch has some joycon drift that infuriates me to bring it with me when I travel. I used to bring my DS and GBA with me, but then I was told to watch my surrounding areas when im traveling instead of gaming.
