I've been thinking about this a lot over the festive period, not least because handheld gaming has quietly become my primary way to play again, but something about this year in the handheld gaming space hit differently.
Not since the Nintendo DS days has handheld gaming been such a daily driver for me as it was with the Steam Deck and then the Xbox ROG Ally X this year, to the point I've actually only turned on my Xbox Series S for the kids.
