RE: Game Systems?
Well looks like I'm gettin a Wii for a REALLY good price!!! Though I'm actually thinking about ditchin my PSP. I almost NEVER play it anymore (I play the DS more GAWD that Advance Wars DS is ADDICTING AND challenging!). I also have a 360 at my place and really don't play it too often either. I work and go to school too much to do that lol.

Here's an article of old handhelds and comparing their sizes to the newer Ngage... http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/featu...stmas_Past.php
Not to mention, I also had the Game Gear from SEGA too.
The cool thing about the Nomad is that it can connect to the TV so that you can watch and play it on a bigger screen and you can connect an external game pad, something I wish the PSP had as an option, then it would really be portable! It was basically the Sega Genesis console made into a handheld console. The same cartridges were even used between the two.

Hey TE, it was. I just read the stats of it on the site.

Sega's Game GearBy 1991 there were few companies out there who could stand against Nintendo in video gaming. In fact there was really only one, and that was Sega. Despite the pretty broad failure of their Master System, Sega persevered and released the Sega Genesis (Mega Drive if you've got culture). When it surprised many and started to take off Sega decided it was time to parlay their success and follow Nintendo into portables. They recycled the architecture of their Master System, fit it to a decent screen, and the Game Gear was born.

that game might as well be called fast and the furious. It is so far from being realistic its not even fun. It really is just a ricer pleaser and that is about it

Are you sure? I could have sworn that it had backlighting too. I know I hated the gameboy (the first) because it wasn't backlit, but I could have sworn that the GameGear was. Hell, it's been so long, I don't remember, lol.

I wish I had kept my GameGear and Nomad. I gave them to my nephews though. Man, they didn't last long either
I should have kept them and sold them on ebay in 5 years, lol.
