Comparisons between the screen resolutions and physical sizes of the NGP, 3DS and other portables reveal that the NGP is the largest handheld yet, but also that its resolution annihilates those of previous handheld consoles.
The NGP falls just short of total HD support, but certainly offers a far more versatile display than the 3DS. However, for purposes other than pure gaming it may find itself being compared not to the 3DS but to smartphones and tablets, rendering this comparison moot.
There is still no word on the price of the NGP, although Sony has said “it will not be like the PS3” and that “it will be reasonable.”

Never expected the X360 power supplies to serve as benchmark for handheld devices sizing.
Yeah I would compare it to actual home console considering how big it is
If it can fit into my car it's portable.
Dude... You mean your toy's car?
If it can fit into my pocket it's portable.
in your pocket? ewww thats just disgusting :S
Really, i carry my wallet and phone in my pocket is that disgusting too or your just thinking of something dirty?
as @diamonddust said, in the past all things were portable which could get in a pocket from a trouser. nothing else
if it can fit into anus and pass the security, it's portable
of course, we don't show the ps3 >:D , wouldn't be that good for them
My ps3 and 360 fit into my car so... both are portable?
Yup along with you monitor......
Nice one, bro.
I'm sure you'll have a great time playing your portable consoles without a screen and a reliable energy source.
Not that hard. Alot of cars have screens in them and all you need is something to convert DC to AC.
You play your 360 in a car?
Enjoy your scratched disk and corrupted saves.
Biggest handheld yet? Try Atari Lynx. Nomad was probably bigger as well.
It's huge......
and
Awesome display is awesome.
*ahem*
that's what she said.
There is still no word on the price of the NGP, although Sony has said “it will not be like the PS3″ and that “it will be reasonable.”
Even so, many people's wallets will be crying their hearts out after buying either NGP, 3DS or maybe even both.
They forgot the TV for Xbox.
While the NGP has "HD", the 3DS will have 3D. I, personally, will be looking forward to the to visual enhancements of the 3D variety as I've yet to experience them at all, much less in the context of gaming.
Er, what is it that I said that was so wrong that I got downvoted so much? :(
Lol dude dun take it so personally, anything goes here in sankaku
all the fookface did it

Specs aren't really that big of a deal for me in terms of consoles. Exclusives are.
If I wanted the most powerful thing imaginable, I would build a computer.
But interesting games are always more important that power. And this is why console wars are silly to begin with. It doesn't matter what they can do other than play interesting games.
Admittedly the handheld is a little different in that it can be compared to things like the iPod or various phones in terms of power per portability instead of just by power in general. But not by much.
So basically, it's like how I never felt bad about owning a Wii. Because it had interesting exclusives on it. Power meant nothing. And I don't care about any of this stuff about these two new systems until I know more about the games being released for them.
Oh dear, I am sorry for the lack of spaces. There weren't there when I typed this.
Im baffled by this touchpad on the backside.
Because you have to loosen your grip to use that and ur psp can just slip out of ur hands, let alone it is a silly idea to attach a touchpad altogether
Can't wait for my Neon Genesis Portable!
hello Neo Geo Pocket!
I am still waiting for a PFP ( http://kaminomi.wikia.com/wiki/PFP) release to spend all my money on it...
People who will buy 3DS will become blind... Using a 3D effect on such a tiny screen is madness.
Did you NOT listen to the news... that's ONLY for ages 6 and under because their eyes are still in the development stages.
Believe what you want. Every time I watch 3D in motion I get headaches a couple minutes later. Just a though of spending hours playing games in 3D on screen of handheld device, sends shivers down my spine.
...and it's not because I did the same thing as Mickey on my avatar>_>
3D with glasses and without glasses are not the same thing at all. Try to know what you are talking about before talking.
That's incredibly ignorant of you, Vodkasaurus Rex.
People's tolerance of 3D is highly variable, thus the 3D slider on the 3DS. :/
Well the same thing can be said about everything else 3D related but people still go to theatres and buy 3D TVs and Monitors. at least you can turn off the 3D on the 3DS so you dont have to worry about it.
3DS without 3D?I pass.
Size is a big issue when it comes to portable gaming device...
PSP is big enough, and now they are miking it much bigger =="
pretty soon it might not even fit pocket anymore
If it fits in my jacket... then it's portable to me.
agree with that size
-.-
Jean pocket is my indicator. Battery life too I guess.
If it fits in a pocket in my 40x32 pants, then it's portable. If it last less then 5 hours of gaming per battery charge, then it fails. I don't think I'll buy the NGP nor the 3DS.
Ever thought of the power consumption with the devices? They coming out wit freaking nice renders and shit, of course they're going to consume a lot of power. It's already good for them to keep the standard of 4-5 hours of gameplay, not to mention that you're going to become a gaming whore if you're going to continue playing it for over 4-5 hours straight. Get a life maybe?
Ever been on a long trip with no opportunity to recharge?
I have a life, that's why this sucks.
Well there is always the solution I chose with my laptop when it came to long road trips. It's something you really should have anyway if your on a long trip in a car. A jumper box, can find them with built in air compressors and usually two wall style plugs, they usually have a cable to plug it into the cigarette lighter of a car which can serve as a source of continuous power. Best part about them, one strong enough to power a laptop computer cost about the same price as a new game, should be more than enough power for a handheld console.
not to mention that you're going to become a gaming whore if you're going to continue playing it for over 4-5 hours straight. Get a life maybe?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>
So you never done some cross country travel by airplane?
As someone from east coast who visits family in reno, nv at least once a year, a longer battery life would be appreciated.5-6 hours filght(counting boarding,taxing, etc)with a 15-40 min layover (which all AC outlet are full most of the time) followed by another 1-2 hour flight. I go though a couple batteries.
Why does this new comment system make it extremely hard to follow conversations now?
While large for portable standards, it's still reasonable, I think. You could go to the other side of the spectrum. Remember that Game Boy Advance Micro? THAT was diminute...
It's getting too big to fit my pocket. Maybe even my financial one.
Well high res doesn't necessary equate to large size.
That said the the thing is quite large, but most people carried the PSP1 in their bags anyway.
Maybe they can shrink it down in the future using higher pixel density screens.
