We all know about handheld consoles, the main ones are the
    DSi
    PSP 3000


But I was watching "the gadget show" and then were deciding the best handheld consoles....
They decided to test the
DSi
PSP 3000
Apple iphone (because you can play games on it..)

Spoiler: The winner was....
The Apple iphone?




Pics, so you can them....
Spoiler: DSi

Well you can play the games on the Ipod Touch so that point is moot.

It's a... touch screen media hub.

The iphone is just a phone with some fancy gadgets, the psp looks like a cheap remake and the dsi is a ds WITH A CAMERA!!!
Therefore, dsi wins

Calling the iphone a games console is like calling a DSi... something that's not a games console because it has extra crap.

I believe that analogy is a bit more specific and fitting.

iPhone is just a flashy phone that thinks it's a game system, a computer, and a camera, plus other things.

Mainly just used by people who want everyone to look at them and their new, fancy iPhone.

Me too.

I have an iPhone, but I definitely wouldn't call it a game console. It's a phone that happens to play games on it as well. (And does some other cool shit.) If I want to play handheld games, I still go to my trusty DS or PSP.

I admit, the on the go internet and stuff is pretty neat, but for a gamer like me, the iPhone just isn't suited to gaming.

The iPhone will never ever beat the DSi and the PSP when it comes to gaming. Sure the iPhone has some games but those games are not "hard core" games so the quality may be questionable.

I think it doesn't. The iPhone may be a better media device but as a phone its meh. its camera sucks to be honest. No settings for the camera. Overall, it is a good media device but that doesn't mean it's a better phone. End of story.

Apple iPhone is a phone.

Nintendo DSi is a handheld game-console.

Playstation Portable 3000 is a handheld game-console.

Yeh I know ^-^;
What I meant by this thread was that "the gadget show" decided that even though the Apple iphone is a phone it is still a better a better handheld console than the DSi and PSP even though it isn't one. They said it was because it was touch screen and had the accelorometer thingy but is there ayone who disagrees/agrees and why ^-~

The iPhone has a better touch screen then the DS, because it allows multiple pressure points, so you can touch more then one spot at once, this is probably because people use their thumb/nail to touch the screen. Goddamn Apple, GET YOUR OWN SUPER AWESOME IDEA.

Well the TC should rephrase: The iphone is in a class of its own and therefore should NOT be compared to the DSi and PSP. I have all three so I think I'm allowed to say that.

Each system was designed to run specific types of software and for specific features only they have--the DSi has 2 screens and 2 cameras, the PSP utilizes UMDs and the iphone...do Ieven have to say?

Before someone can ask it no, I don't think Apple will try to make a handheld to compete Nintendo and Sony. Nokia's failed N-Gage systems are proof of why phone companies should just stick with what they do best and not take any unnecessary risks. For fear of going off-topic that's all I'm saying about the N-Gage XD

See--the iphone and the DSi are like sidekicks (Nintendo has hinted at the possible release of a simple word processor via DSi Shop). Aside from their primary functions they offer other nifty features XD

My DS will never be replaced, not even by the iPhone. Yes i guess the DS is a sidekick. I always bring it with me, because when i don't i usually regret it (like i get stuck waiting for something and i think "gee, i wish i had my DS here")

Because the camera totally has to do with how it functions as a phone. :yuusaku:

I had an iTouch and that was ... enough to turn me off from the iPhone. I have a feeling it'll be unresponsive and just poorly constructed. Plus any game that can be played on your phone is usually of terrible quality.
The DSi looks pretty good though, and I don't know about the PSP.

Do you mean that thing about some random company sueing Nintendo about the Wii Remote? :jake: Well of course, they probably just wanted a piece of Nintendo Pie.

As for my opinion on this... eh. Sure, iPhone/iTouch are awesome, but they shouldn't be compared up to game consoles.

Having Mario means Nintendo is releasing new games for the iPhone, now is Nintendo doing that? No. Not some stupid remake.

Phones can have good cameras. Examples: Samsung Omnia, HP 910c, my BlackBerry.

That is not a Mario made for iPhone, it is a ROM being run in a Nintendo Entertainment System emulator for the iPhone. Get it right.
