It's a portable Genesis, meaning that it is WAY better than all other handhelds next to the psp/ds.
Bad Points
In contrast to what most people believe, the size and battery consumption are not that big of a deal; the gameboy is smaller and can be used longer but the way it's held is unconfortable and it is only 8-bit
General Comments
- when compared to the gameboy advanced (basically a portable snes), it actually uses the same cartridges as the genesis, as opposed to snes ports. the gba only has 2 face buttons thus limiting gameplay in snes ports.
- the nomad plays all genesis games
-i personally consiter the nomad to be another remake of the genesis, like a smaller genesis 3 (the genesis 3 is about twice the size, comes with a 6-button controller, and is equally incompatible with the add-ons) this makes it the most portable console in exsistance
