It would be an instant hit. I mean if they get a psp, color it white put "Xbox whatever" on it and add a SECOND ANALOG STICK (and possibly a bigger memory card built in if it wouldn't effect the cost much) it would sell dammit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:x Or possibly sony could make a psp2 with the second analog stick:roll: Anyone agree or have idea's for an awesome handheld that could be made???

 MS-based handhelds are notorious for having a short battery life.

ya, seeing the three red rings of doom at home is bad enough but seeing it on the go anytime and everytime you take it out, man that'd be torture.

They would probably just loose another few billion on that venture also.

Lol, i'm 16 and let me rephrase, this is an "i wish"situation. Everyone knows to come out with a true instant hit they would need something revolutionary; this would probably be a hardcore gamer device only. (But the second analog stick would out sell the psp in the long run). Any way does anyone have idea's for a cool handheld possibility???

I'd rather they didn't. If they make a handheld then it will only divert attention away from the 360. Market experts have already been very critical on Sony's attempt to get into the handheld market and have cited it as one of the reasons PS3 isn't doing as well as it should right now. Having 2 platforms to develop for splits your resources and more importantly splits the attention of your first party developers.

Nah, the Apple iPhone has a better chance of entering the handheld market than MS does.

xbox was to push MS into the living room and to help sell more MS software. Thats the only reason. I dont think handhelds will help them sell more copies of windows and stuff. Like if you have an xbox u probably have windows OS im guessing... because you can transfer stuff and things now. So if you want to use the xbox as a media cener you will probably get windows instead of OSX.
