Has some pros: The only "normal" portable gaming device available at a price that is appropriate given the current state of affairs. PSP and Vita - it is easy to see why many feel this way, but their time has long since come and gone. Having this drawback: A cost associated with purchasing anything that is not a console. Games are pricey. The asks are quite pricey. The production quality is not quite on par with that of Japan, and the customer service leaves much to be desired.
