It goes w/o saying that Nintendo practically owned the handheld market for the longest of time, and they still do today w/ the you know what. Of course that doesn't mean other companies didn't try to take a crack at it. So if you have some experience w/ handheld games or devices that aren't from Nintendo, then feel free to share.
The PSP is one of my favorites for this. It was actually my first owned handheld since the Game Gear and GBA in my house belonged to my brother. I only really got to play a few games for it back then, namely GTA Liberty City Stories, before it went missing. I bought one again a few years ago, and while it admittedly hurts my hand to play after a bit, it has some really solid titles. It's impressive to have been able to play near PS2 quality games back when it came out. Heck, I prefer Liberty City Stories over GTA 3. And I can't say much on the Game Gear since Sonic 2 was the primary game I remember playing on it way back when, and I've been having access to that game on the Wii VC for a while now [Master System version]. I mean it's cool that Sega had enough sense to put a backlight on it unlike the Game Boy line.
