On the train, on the can, on the couch .. Portable games go with us everywhere. Some folks just mute their DS and others bring headphones along. This week, we want to know:
How do you play portable games?
[Update: Assume we're asking for the way you play games the majority of the time.]

usually got the music going on the ipod.

Well…it really depends. If I’m taking a crap at work, I usually keep it muted. If I’m playing around the house I use the speakers. If I’m playing after my wife goes to sleep, I use the headphones. So…ALL OF THE ABOVE!

All polls should have have either or both of the following choices:
None of the above.
All or more than one of the above. (Applicable for this poll.)

It depends on where I’m playing my DS. If I’m on my porcelain throne (ahem.. potty), I wear headphones.
If I’m just laying on my bed playing it, I just use the DS speakers.

I chose “speakers on the system” because I have them on at a really low volume most of the time I play, but I agree with mrdctaylor: I do all of the above, and especially have to mute it when I’m at work (in the bathroom) and someone is around…
Don’t tell anyone!

I only use headphones when I am playing something like EB Agents where the sound is critical. Does everyone else play in bed before they go to sleep?

More than any of the choices given, I actually play my DS through my car stereo using the same cassette adaptor that I use for my CD player and XM radio. Also makes a great “iPod ghetto” with a flash card.

Either the speakers on the system or muted while I listen to something else. Usually I’ll listen to something else while I’m playing Pokemon. While making great strides in the music department, I’d still rather listen to something else while playing that game.
