If Microsoft Announced A Handheld, Would You Buy It?

If microsoft announced a handheld, would you buy it? Well I know I would. I would really like to see some Xbox Live on a handheld and just some cool games.

Would you guys buy one?

I would probably buy it, since I buy one of everything that comes out. Do I think it would be successful? Uncertain. If they stick to MS ideals though - online play, xboxlive connectivity, same game library (in terms of style) - then yes, I'd think it'd be amazing.

It would be great if it had xbox live connectivity - and if they could work it so it could connect to the 360 / share gamerpoints. It would be fantastic if you could just add the handheld to your current account with no further cost - but suspect that with MS that there would probably be a slight uplift in cost to add the handheld to live.

I would buy it, because it would probably be the best handheld online by far.

I think the next big thing for handhelds will be two analog sticks. The PSP had one analog button thing but there should have been another one to make FPS games even better.

I would say no.

I have no need for one. Wait I already have one but it is larger. It's called a laptop.

LOL, good point.


Well I would look into it. MS will probably release a xune gamer version or some tie-in like that. XBLA games on the go would be freakin sweet though.

seriously - Castle Crashers on a hand held would rock Especially if you could connect to your buddies wirelessly and play with 4 people on their own machines.
