Modern handheld gaming has long been dominated by Nintendo and Sony. Each hardware manufacturer has multiple viable offerings derived either directly, or evolving from the respective DS and PlayStation Portable product lines. All of these devices are impressive multifunctional devices, with designs meant to encourage gameplay on the go, integration with the Internet, backwards compatibility to previous games, and so on, but each goes about this in different ways. Taking a few minutes to examine the main features, and getting more familiar with available options, accessories and possible limitations of each handheld is the optimal way to determine which is the best choice for a player.

The wireless revolution in personal electronics has made online functionality and connectivity to the Internet a huge focus in handheld gaming.

By utilizing these portals, players can greatly expand their chosen platform's potential, maximize gaming fun, and increase the overall entertainment value of their devices.
