Butt ugliest hand held console ever

[HercTNT]

What is your opinion on the ugliest hand held consoles ever. My top 5 are:

1. The gizmondo:  Bizzare shape and ugly trigger buttons coming out the top
2. Atar lynx model 1:  Large and dog bone type shape did not do it for me
3. Sega Game Gear:  Sorry folks, I got no love for its design
4. Gameboy micro: I know some of you love it, but i personally could not stand it
5. Gameboy advance: This ones tough as it depends on the color. Certain colors on this design looked terrible, while others looked just fine.

Once again, since hoobs missed it, here is my wifes pick for uglies hand held

Sega Game Gear

I gave five votes on the other polls, but this only needs one:

Cybiko.

Where you dropped as a child? Seriously, I demand an explaination. Have you actually used one? The screen is laser sharp, the buttons are neigh on perfect, the case is metal, it fits in any pocket, and it plays GBA games, which are awesome.

Don't give me that "everyone's entitled to their own opinion" bullshit either. I want answers!

[HercTNT]

Zeta, i hear you, and you are rightly entitled to answers

Your not gonna believe me but i swear to you this is true. I cant stand the way the design on the top and bottom of curves in towards the screen.  The screen is excellent i agree, but it's just way to small for what i will tolerate (the dingoo a320 was pushing it, but also has an excellent screen). And finally people with larger hands have learned to hate such small systems as playing it for even a short period of time becomes very uncomfortable. I"m straying away from the topic though, and the answer is i hate the design on the front.

And no, i was not dropped. I was born at the top of a pine tree, fell out and hit every branch on the way down. I"m so bright, my dad calls me son.......................

I get the bit about the Gameboy Micro. Man... that thing's a trainwreck for those of us who don't have girly hands.

[Samurai Ghost]

Probably the Gizmondo, Game.com, or N-Gage.

The Game Gear is actually pretty comfy to hold and play for long periods of time.

[SignOfZeta]

Yeah, all the old handhelds were so much more comfortable than the new stuff.

[Necromancer]

I'd vote for either the n-gage, r-zone, or that epoch thing that Chris posted a while back.

[Arkhan]

ngage for me.

or GAME.COM or w/e it was called

Dog bone shape, Dinosaur Bone Size.

Just so that the people voting for N Gage know, there are two different N Gage units. Both are like an iPhone 4S compared to:



Also, there was an "upgrade" called, of course, the Cybiko Xtreme (barf):



Still think the NGage is the worst?

BTW, I had the chance to play a SNES emulator on the NGage QD. It wasn't that bad! The controls were actually decent and you don't have to talk into it sideways like the original. Overall though, yeah, f*ck that thing.

[Necromancer]

That ugly ass thing certainly looks worse than an n-gage, but it's about as much of a game console as a TI-85 is.

I always thought it looked neat. Fit really great in the hand, and had quite a few nice games for it. Loved deving on the thing, too.

And now you wanna go dissin another great machine.... I think I'll just go back to playing drug wars on my 85....

[Arkhan]

drug wars was awesome.
