And here we are again, putting together a ridiculous list. Given Nintendo has stopped releasing a new handheld variant every year, now seemed like the perfect time to judge dozens of hardware manufacturers on their portable offerings. Here is Every Handheld Console Ranked From WORST To BEST.

    This is just a list of more obscure platforms for Doom fans to port Doom to.

    Ben : "Oh yeah, here we go... Hand held time... I've never held a hand before..." Peter sheds a single tear
  • @SRPC21
    I’d definitely consider the GameBoy Colour to be different to the GameBoy/Pocket/Light. The GBC had its own extensive library of games.

    Nintendo on home consoles: Yeah I hold my weight Nintendo on handhelds: Omnipotent chanting in sacred dialect
  • @chbmckie
    How about "Every Mario Game Ranked from Worst to Best"? I'd love to see more of these long-form videos! Your channel is criminally underrated and is now my favourite!! Keep it up!
  • @alexbenton6306
    AWWW YEAH HERE WE GO HANDHELD TIME. I’ve held a hand before but I’m going to give this all I’ve got!
  • The 3DS was such a great console. I honestly forget the 3D function every time but it had such a fantastic RPG library. I still play mine quite often.
  • I just wanted to say that in Italy, back in the 2000s, we all loved so much the My Life console. We would exchange the little cards and even if it was oh so bad and dull, we still enjoyed it, and made a lot of great memories. :)
  • @aidancommenting
    "Electric fun boxes" Still better than Microsoft's naming scheme
  • @dr666demento
    Goldstar still exists. The Korean company was initially named "Lucky Goldstar" then the "Lucky" was dropped. now it's "LG electronics".
  • @Bubbabyte99
    I had an original Leapster as a kid (not the Leapster Explorer), and I absolutely LOVED it. DEFINITELY the cream of the crop when it comes to educational game systems.
  • @stuxmusic
    Calling out Barcodes as the mark of the beast. That's a deep joke and I love it.
  • @agactual2
    I’m pretty sure Ashens has reviewed at least 85% of these
  • @adamwalton9312
    Keanu Reeves is apparently Duck Man, must have missed that movie...
  • @LightOfReason7
    The Atari Lnyx was so cool, and so much better than anything available at the time. Tod's adventures in Slime World was terrific. All they had to do was to market it better. You could connect up to 12 players
  • @jkbobful
    If the Vita had half the triple A support of the PSP it would have been awesome it had so much potential

    Primarily, I love the background music. The music is what makes Triple Jump, oh and the horseplay dialogue so epic. Makes one want to just exercise. Heck, I listen while I'm taking on tasks while at work. Amplify the music by making the violins sound louder, the low pass deeper, the high hats sharper, the piano step key solos and harps louder in your videos. Perfect.
