    I am addicted to playing games. I use to play it on my PC and console but whenever I am outside of home then I use to play it on portable games. I think every player should have a portable game to enjoy. I love it because it is portability and mobility. Share your opinion about the benefits of portable games.

    The main one is, of course, the portability just like you said. You can take it everywhere with you.. to the holidays, to the office and so on. In the past they also used to be way cheaper - nowadays that's not quite as true anymore. You will also find a ton of good exclusive games on handheld consoles.

    I love bringing out my Mario or Pokemon games and playing them for a few hours. It is just very handy and convenient.

    Obviously, as stated by other, the portability is the most important thing. I can't take my desktop with me when I travel and play on the airplane.

    What I like about portable consoles is their games tend to be more casual and not as attention demanding as something on the PC. Pokemon, for example, is easy to pick up and play for a little while on my DS, but if I need to go or do something, it's easy for me to just save and put it down.

    I don't like portable gaming that much, but I recognize there are a bit of benefits for those who enjoy it. You can play everywhere you want, there lots of good games (but this is not a specific benefit of it of course) and usually is a bit cheaper than console or PC gaming.

    The benefits for portable games is that you can pretty much carry them any where along with the charger for said device. You don't have to wait until you get home or another area to play the game, you can do it on the go or just sitting around.

    I don't actually know how to categorize portable game, I guess the only advantage is that you can carry it anywhere and play anytime. I still love my play station, computer and Xbox thought.

    It's just the portability but all in all, consoles are still the best when it comes to handling best games, like ever.

    I think it good to play portable game while you are travelling to another area. You do not have to take your console and depend on any LED or computer. Just keep your portable game charged and keep on going.

    I think they can be really useful when you can't make use of the big console, laptop and desktop. Though they are going to be limited with the usage. Still they can be effective in many ways. I'd prefer them when travelling.

    Obviously, it is portable. It is way more convenient than other gaming tools.

    Portal games are also a bit more easy to set up and protect.

    Its because of its flexibility. Gaming anywhere and everywhere you want gives you a sense of convenience and this is the main reason why portable games is very popular specially on people who often travel. Having a game with you just take out boring times.

    I think some portable games make the things a bit easier. most of the PC and console based games are heavy for sure.

    I don't think portable games are demanding in any way. In fact they are good enough for small games. And can be given to the kids.

    You've said it yourself already, portability and mobility. It's like having entertainment on the go. A way to entertain yourself when you're outside the house stuck in traffic or what not. It's an excellent way to pass the time.

    I think devices like android phones and the tablets are going to be the future and we are going to see how more effective can be long term. So yeah we have to wait and see on the future for the same.
