Ooh, thirded. In fact, I almost always play my DS with the tv running in the background.

I remember one time when I was sitting in my room at age nine, playing Pokemon Yellow in my Game Boy color, and I smelled the air and my room smelled like mushrooms (I hate the smell of cooking mushrooms), and for some reason I smelled the speaker on my Game Boy Color and I smelled mushrooms, so I didn't play my GBC for about a year after that. Mind you, I didn't find out until much later that someone was cooking mushrooms in the nearby kitchen, but I still didn't play it for a while.

Also, I must have an overactive left index finger or something, because every handheld console I own gets a broken L button after a couple years.

Handheld console games can be just as engrossing (if not moreso) than console games; given the fact that I've gone through Dragon Warrior III on GBC three times, I've probably logged at least two hundred hours into that game alone. And don't even get me started on Pokemon.

Oh, and speaking of Pokemon, my Game Boy Color is the yellow one with the the pokemon in the black border surrounding the screen (it came with Pokemon Yellow).

Also, fun fact: Killer Instinct on Game Boy is better than Killer Instinct on SNES.
