why is this not in the portable consoles section?

Thanks, but that just points to an organization fail of the section. You'd imagine the default sort should be the popularity sort or name sort. Date sort is broken as there is no way 3DS should be in the middle. I've been trying to add my gadgets to profile and I've given up as it's way too much more work than it should be

Date sort is by when the product was added to the site, not by when it was released.

The best way to add your gadgets to your profile is to search for them using the "search" box in the upper right hand corner of every page. As you type the name of the product, possible results will start to appear in a drop down—typing in "Nintendo 3DS" would have given you the Nintendo 3DS right away. Clicking on it takes you to the product page.

(And hitting ENTER while using the search box will bring you to a page of search results.)

yeah, like I was saying, way too much work than it should be; especially for the casual user. I got tons of gadgets. It would be nice to enter them in. But I don't feel compelled to find the specific model numbers to do searches. Chances are, if they are sorted by popularity and brand for each category, I got the top few (I have all the top 10 and despaired at having to enter each page to add them). There should be popularity sorts like by most have, or most wanted, or most had

I was initially enthusiastic to enter my gadgets, but with it being so much work, it's not worthwhile

Right now we are working on better sort options, including popularity. I hope that when we get those up you'll give your gadget list another shot.

Cool! Thanks for responding! I look forward to new sort options. Sort by date is probably most meaningful by release date. popularity by trend might be interesting too. Look forward to the site update!
