Whomever drew this picture is awesome!
So, it's been a while since I have posted (or talked about for that matter) any 'tidbits' on Hand-held Games. That's changing. I have recently experienced a "self" resurgence in utilizing my hand-held systems over the past few weeks and I must say: I've been sucked back in! The culprit for "sucking" me back in? Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. What an excellent game. This, however, isn't a Mario and Luigi gush-fest...this is a post covering four of the most anticipated Hand-held games for 2010 (for Warp 9 that is)!
