PSP.
Homebrew is a big factor.

DS. PSP doesn't have enough games that interest me personally, the GBA is... outdated, really, and the cell phone......
You're kidding, right?

I like my psp but it just seems so fragile. Having that flip top on the ds means never having to worry about the screen being scratched. (yes I could get a case for the psp) Psp is a bit bulky and the DS has better games.
I have used the gba slot on my DS so does that count as gba or ds

And the cell phone......
You're kidding, right?
No I'm not.There are some people who can't afford to go out and buy a DS or PSP, and they most likely already have a mobile phone, so they get their mobile gaming fix on a cell phone.It's kinda like a PC of mobile gaming in that you need it for other reasons anyway, so buying games for it is a lot cheaper than buying an entire other system to do that.
EDIT:And I put the GBA on there because there are so many good games for it, especially for RPG fans, and some people haven't upgraded yet.

Super monkey ball for the iphone has already sold 300k so yes cell phone games are a valid choice for the casual gamer

When I said cell phone, I really meant more along the lines of an average one, not the iphone.But the iphone counts too.

I know, it's just... cell phones really aren't ideal, you know?

Also, In Japan cell phone games are quite popular. People play them on the trains all the time. There are a fair number of people who play the psp and ds too.
I myself played my cell phone on a regular basis on the way to my job. The price was generally low for games and they were quickly downloaded. I had a wipeout clone as well as bomberman.
In NA everyone drives a car so that makes it a bit more difficult to drive and game (though some do). I think if we saw a mass shift to public transit the sales of cell phone games would explode here.

I play my DS a lot, although I play GBA games on it more than I do with the actual DS games. So, would that count as GBA?

I honestly play my DS more than any system at all. I very seldom touch my XBOX360 or PS3, and when I do I tend to use them more as DVD players than anything else. I do enjoy my PSP, but I don't have close to the library for it that I do for the DS though.
Edit: I have to admit I play quite a lot of GBA games on the DS too.

Although I used my DS a lot, I don't always carry it with me. Cell phone Tetris has occupied me in many waiting lines.

PSP and homebrew... two words that go well together. I can play Open-source Transport Tycoon Deluxe from the comfort of my bed! It's probably my favorite 'homebrew' game. Not exactly 'homebrew' as its pretty much just a PSP port of OpenTTD (http://www.openttd.org/).

My bro wants a Pandora, which is a handheld made solely for homebrew. Actually looks pretty good, but I'll give it a miss for now until the handhelds we've already got die or whatever.
