[QUOTE="raxadian, post: 9026831, member: 469653"] The Gameboy had the advantage that Nes games were quite easy to port to the Gameboy, trying to up Gameboy sales with ports was one of the reasons the Nes was keep alive for years after the Super Nintendo release. The Gameboy Color was basically a portable Nes so while slightly more complicated, it was still easy to program for. The GBA was supposed to be a portable Super Nintendo, but not only it had color problems but lacked enough buttons to be a portable Super Nintendo, making any port of the Super Nintendo made to it quite bad. Only games created specifically for the GBA looked good and took advantage of the hardware. The DS was quite close to being a portable Nintendo 64 (without the expansion pack) but Nintendo insistence that every game had to work mainly using the touchscreen, at least early on, hurt it when it came to 3D plataformers. Despite that it still did quite well. The 3DS had and has several problems, unlike the DS it has regional locking, the microphone works worse that the DS version, and during it's first years it lacked mainline Nintendo games. Heck early one the top selling games was a Nintendogs game! It still did quite well, at least way better that the Wii U, more so in Japan were it basically killed any other portable. [/QUOTE]
