Is It safe to play handheld games in a Thunderstorm?

Question

I always wondered about it.

I know you can be shocked on the phone or a computer but what about a handheld game like a DS, Gameboy or PSP? Its not hooked up to anything and it is not in wireless mode.

Is it safe or can you still get shock because it is an electrical apliance?

Answer 1

ya i play my ds all the time when it is a thunderstorm it is fine as long as ur not next to a window where it lightening or u dont have it plugged in

Answer 2

Unless you have it plugged to the charger it is fine.
