A Handheld History

Awesome book for anyone who has an interest or nostalgia for portable consoles history. It’s a solid book that’s filled with great artwork and design.

Kitaba lafım asla olmaz ama maalesef pttkargo ile gönderilmesi takip aşamasının(takip kodu bile yok) ve ulaşım süresinin bir çileye dönmesine sebep olmakta… Kısacası mecbur değilseniz bu satıcıdan almayın çünkü pttkargo ile gönderiyor. Hatta bir örnek vereyim, başka bir satıcıdan aynı yayıncının başka bir kitabını aynı tarihte aldım ve o kitabı aramex kargo ile yolladılar. Aramex 7. gün kitabı elime ulaştırırken pttkargo 18. Gün ulaştırdı. Aradaki kargo kalite farkını buradan da anlayabilirsiniz.

Nice to see such a book out there. While a lot of retro gaming books focus on games and systems, this one has something more to it. Sure, it talks about games and systems like all the other books, but it is also about stories and experiences people had with these systems, which make this book feel much more personal. You'll read stories about kids (back then) wrestling with their gameboy games while in car, using street lights to see the screen. Anyone who own these systems (like myself) back in the days can relate. This book brings back memories. Not just about the consoles, but about our time playing with these back in the days. It's well written, and the pictures are great. Photography is nice. Although the paper it is printed on doesn't give them justice. Still, a recommended read for everyone who was a kid back in the 90s and loved portable gaming.

A fun and interesting retrospective of the history of handheld consoles. Offers a lot of good contextual info, personal insights, photo showcases, and original illustrations.
