xbox 180 is an xbox handheld. i saw it in some magazine. but since micrososft owns rare, would their handheld games be on that instead?

I can't see why they wouldn't. But then again don't trust me...

I believe most people have said that Rare only makes games for the GBA/DS is because Microsoft isn't in the handheld area of gaming. But, once this Xbox handheld thing comes out, I'm betting Rare will only be allowed to make games for MS's and not Nintendo's (MS would start to lose money againest Nintendo if they did).

By any chance did this happen to be the Game Informer April 2006? Because I saw that one and Micro$oft is making a handheld. But it's not going to be called the 180. You, my friend, have been punked.

Xbox 180 the best name for a handheld they could probably actually come up with. That or something off the wall lame like YBox.

Hmm. Would that make a new handheld of the same name generate MASS CONFUSION? ;).

I heard about that, and from wht I heard, it dosn't sound all that great.
I'm amazed that Microsoft will let them make games for Nintendo handhelds period. I guess Microsoft is just being money hungry and Rare is just being torn away from Nintendo in the process. I just hope that Diddy Kong Racing DS comes out before the Xbox handheld, or else another Rare project will go down the drain.
