"Will Sony Handheld outsell Gameboy?"

With sony now entering the handheld region of gaming will there console outsell the Gameboy and GBA? Do you think Sony can beat the Big N or do you think Nintendo's experience in the market wil put them ahead of the rivals?

I reckon sony will sell a lot but then nintendo will relase another needless gba extra which will put them back on top...

Sony always do well with selling game consoles so they will do well with the handheld probably. I'm not sure it will be ableto beat Nintendo but it will be a challenge for them.

It will probably do well but it won't beat Nintendo. Most people already have a GBA/SP so I doubt everyone will spend more cash on the sony handheld.

It's a tough one but the gameboy has remind so strong since 1988 it's outsold everything. Sony would need to produce something very impressive to compete.

I think Nintendo have the experience to be able to cope with an attack from Sony. But that said, Sony did make a surprise success with the PS1, beating the very experienced SEGA with the DC, so maybe the underdog can make a fair old attempt again? But I doubt it.

I'll keep an eye on the sony handheld though because the newest GB version I have is the GBC and I have only 1 game for it, so maybe a Sony handheld could be a bit fresher and have more original games?

So I'll hold off and not bother with the GBA/SP for now because Nintendo are bound to release another handheld around the same time as Sony

Sony's handheld has PS1 ports... so no not more original games.

Wario Ware... best game ever?

Wario Ware - best designed Game Boy Advance game (see my review) but not the best game ever.

Another hand held from Nintendo or even Sony's handheld are far way off - well 1.5 years, thats long enough for me. I just got a GBA SP recently and so far its been well worth. It doesnt matter about power and 3D capability, there are already some great games out on the GBA that you'll miss. Besides, a new console will take at least six months to start to take off.

Y'all forgotten about the Nokia N gage? It is meant to have support from Sega. I fancy getting one anyway. Just to be different.

I don't think that it will be a success, but fair go to Nokia for having a shot. The same with Microsoft and the Xbox.
