50Hz/60Hz and PAL/NTSC don't apply in the world of handheld games.

Thank goodness our handheld games don't perform worse than handheld games from other regions.

The 50Hz/60Hz thing applies to electricity. Handhelds are powered by batteries so that solves a big problem.

PAL/NTSC are different standards of televisions and would you believe PAL is supposed to be superior? Handhelds have their own screens.

Handhelds live by their own rules. Consoles live by the rules of others. An example of which are tv manufacturers and retailers. None of them give a damn about video games and we constantly have to adapt to their negligence. A modern day example is the input lag you get with these new tvs.

If only we could take what makes handhelds work so well and apply them to game consoles! I'd love a game console that had it's own output device like a projector or some super flexible screen you pull out like a curtain or something.
