  • What I miss about this era of portable gaming was that it was:

    1. Portable

    2. Fun, pocket games had a different design ethos around it. Longer play sessions were allowed since you can play it everywhere. But it never made you feel like you couldn’t put it down since you might have to drop what you were doing to make your next connection. It’s why I think Pokemon has been so successful. Outside of the elite 4, you could pause at any time and moment with no penalties in your game.

    My recommendations for unique games for those who want them.

    Pixel Junk Monsters - Tower Defence

    The Sims 2 - Seriously a fun adventure game in the theme of the Sims.

    Patapon 1 or 2 - Rythem adventure game

    EveryDay Shooter - Twin stick shooter
