The NPCs Discuss - The Future of Handheld Gaming

On today's episode: Handheld gaming was originally dominated by a select few. The likes of Nintendo's Game Boy and it's offspring, the Nintendo DS, were the rulers of the gaming-on-the-go scene. Competition from Sony with it's PlayStation Portable and PlayStation Vita, Sega with the Game Gear, and many others could not keep pace with the house of Mario. However, Nintendo's attempt to bridge the gap between handheld and home console became an overnight success, and the Switch continues to be a best seller since it's release in 2017. That got many others thinking of what they could provide in lieu of a Game Boy-style device - either stick with the ability to provide retro gaming in place of what Nintendo had previously done -or- take the ever-expanding PC gaming market and make it even more accessible in an on-the-go package. And that's what we are here to discuss today: The Future of Handheld Gaming.
