Handhelds: Then and Now

With the up coming launch of the PSP slim I took a look back on how far the handhelds have come. Note the two handhelds I put together. The system on the left would be the Saga Nomad released in October 1995. Of course the one on the right is the PSP Slim releasing sometime later this year. Not only does the newer handhelds take better pictures but we all know how much smaller the games and systems are and how much more graphic power they all have. The PSP slim can plug into TVs and also has its own line of UMD movies and stores music. Back then if you bought a gaming handheld thats what you got, a handheld that only played games. With more buttons and colors today you wonder if you could ever go back to your brick gameboy and play the pee green color games with out the saving options.
