A handheld game console, or simply handheld console, is a small, portable self-contained video game console with a built-in screen, game controls and speakers. Handheld game consoles are smaller than home video game consoles and contain the console, screen, speakers, and controls in one unit, allowing players to carry them and play them at any time or place.
This is a list of all video game lists, sorted by varying classifications.

Greatest Hits is a branding used by Sony Interactive Entertainment for discounted reprints of PlayStation video games.
