if you could squeeze any console into a handheld what'd you choose

[Samus Aran]

I would say SNES, but those games could just be put on the GBA with relative ease anyway, so I'll go with Gamecube.

And since when was the Genesis your favorite overall? For ages now you've been saying the SNES was your favorite. Honestly I can't see how anyone would prefer the Genesis over the SNES considering the awful sound quality and just the general shortage of great games in comparison to the SNES. Not that it's a bad console at all, because it really is great, but the SNES still trounces it.

I'm pretty sure they make SNES emulators for PSP, so yeah. Also, the GBA lacks the X and Y buttons.

Hasn't stopped them from porting like 50 SNES games to the GBA already. They've managed to work around that little issue one way or another.

but how... 

[Samus Aran]

but how... 

I don't really remember. For FFVI, the Y button did nothing anyway and they just changed the X button's only option (bringing up the main menu/pause screen) to Start.

Plus, for most SNES games, the L and R buttons weren't used much, so they could change Y and X button functions to L and R on the GBA. It all works out somehow.

And the GBA has a resolution of 240x160 whereas the Super Nintendo is like 256x224

I'm sure people could work around that.

Most X and Y buttons weren't used, or if they were, R and L weren't so they could replace those buttons.

Also PSP and DS both emulate SNES, not very well though

PSP is a fucking beast at emulating the SNES. The only games it can't play are pretty much Super Mario RPG and Starfox.

[ncba93ivyase]

That's cutting out a lot and it really doesn't work well for a lot of games.

[ME##]

I'd probably pick the PlayStation 2 or SNES, but as it's been pointed out before the PSP could easily be considered them with emulators and ports of PlayStation 2 games.

The psp is pretty good at emulating the snes, but the ds sucks dick. The only game that I can get emulate near to perfect is super mario all stars/super mario world, which I have already played to death on other consoles.
