Provided I can muster up the energy, I use my DS on the tube too (and I'll expect I'll be using my PSP, when/if I ever get it!).

There's so many different handheld devices / phones / consoles / media players around these days I figure they just dont stand out as much..

[Ady]

I play handhelds on publics all the time, and I'll do the same once I pick up the new machines. I've never had any trouble whatsoever.

I played Ridge Racers on the PSP on the train and nobody cared. Actually, the old woman I was sitting next to didn't look too impressed with Ridge Racers' music before I put the headphones in.

Damn, here I was looking forward to all the attention I'd get while playing my PSP in public.

Can't do it, especially not on the bus - I get major travel sickness anyway, so have to be looking out of the window all the time. Gaming on the move just doesn't happen for me.

Plus if I started playing my DS on the bus in the morning I wouldn't want to get off and go to work.

Actually...

[Saurian]

Own up - cmon be honest

Who's missed their stop?

Lumines made me miss 3!

[plauZ]

Damn...I was also looking forward to the attention I'd get with a psp .

[Rossco]

I've missed my train stop playing Tiger Woods on my mobile. I cried when I realised what happened, took me another 55 minutes to get home and a ?3 ticket!

[Hulk Davidson]

I won't play Sarawu Wario on the train any more, some of the vigorous rubbing games can look very suspicious to people sitting behind you.

[mr_fantazmo]

yeah, or feel the magic, the one where you have to shout to get her attention! I was embarrased doing that one, and i was in my house, alone!!

[plauZ]

same here...I whistled

I played Touch Wario the other day on the tube, one of the misc Teddy levels, thinking I wouldn't have to blow. I was racking up a good score when suddenly I had a mini game where I DID have to blow. I was gunning to unlock some stuff so I was NOT gonna lose a life, so I attempted this subtle "sigh/blow-out the corner-of-mouth-downwards" which got me no-where, and which only succeeded in making myslef giggle at the absurdity, which succeeded in bringing more attention to myself than I would have gotten by just blowing normally!

I have noticed that playing Feel The Magic mic games does not work on the Tube...there seems to be constant noise which makes the sensor go off all the time. On the Candle game the guys were ALWAYS dizzy without me doing anything. I thought it was the movement of the train, but I tested it while in between stops and the game still kept picking up sound from nowhere, strange.

Touch Wario rubbing etc is acceptable, but the Twist game is just too much. The day I got it I limited myslef to playing it on the platform, and turned in circles in a "subtle" way rather than turn the DS itself.

It is very cool to have the 2 Wario gamesstuck into the system at the same time!
