Apparently, the Nintendo DS is
the illicit love child of the Tapwave Zodiac and the Game Boy Advance SP, conceived on an unexpected
night of boundless portable passion sometime in 2003. We have to admit - that situation is a little difficult to
picture and, to be even more honest, we think that attempting to do so any further will most likely cause irreversible
psychological trauma. Well, more than we've already managed.Who do we have to thank for this unspeakable mental imagery? None other than Daveynin, the guy that drew up this interesting family tree of sorts that traces the origins of our favorite portable systems all the way back from the Milton-Bradley Microvision in 1979. It's an interesting look at the many gaming devices we've gone through (even some you've probably never even heard of) and is easy to follow due to gigantic and oh-so-helpful arrows. And who knows, perhaps by the end of this year we'll see some arrows coming out of the DS.
And please stop thinking about handheld devices having sex. Just stop it.
