For me, it has to be PSP, it was WAY ahead of its time.

Also remember that I added windows 95 in it to see the capabilities and it was taking 10 minutes just to boot into windows hahaha

I broke it when I got drunk one day though, still miss it :(

Me and my brothers had game gears growing up, those things chewed through some batteries, but had some darn good sonic games on them

Game gear for me as well. When your a kid, your favorite console is whichever one you were lucky enough to own, be it a gift from a parent, or one you bought with chore money from a friend.

I loved my Game Gear. I always had the AC adapter, so I didn't actually burn through many batteries (never played in the car because the motion gave me a headache). Although I eventually had quite a few games, the ones that I played the most were Sonic 2, Mortal Kombat, and Spider-man/X-Men Arcades Revenge.

Nostalgia alone will probably always keep the Game Gear my favorite handheld, despite how awesome all the Gameboys, DSs, and PSP things that get made. That said, the Neo Geo Pocket holds a high place in my heart as well.
