I guess the question is, what makes RPG's a no no for handhelds and
exclusivly for home systems and yet, other games aren't. Why are RPG's
special and other games for handhelds aren't? Unless you are saying that
any game that isn't a port of another game that is on a home system isn't
the right kind of game for a handheld.
