Re:    Form SB-2 Registration Statement (Registration No. 333-133550)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Handheld Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the ‘‘Company’’), in connection with the Company’s Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (as amended from time to time, the ‘‘Registration Statement’’), initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) on April 26, 2006, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ‘‘Securities Act’’). The Registration Statement relates to the registration of the offer and sale of up to 3,500,000 shares (the ‘‘Shares’’) of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the ‘‘Common Stock’’), and up to 525,000 shares of Common Stock (the ‘‘Over-Allotment Shares’’) which the underwriters will have a right to purchase from the Company to cover over-allotments, if any. This opinion letter is being delivered in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-B promulgated under the Securities Act.

In connection with this opinion, we have examined the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws, each as amended to date, the Registration Statement and such other documents as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this opinion.

We have also reviewed such other matters of law and examined and relied upon such other documents, records and certificates as we have deemed relevant hereto. In all such examinations we have assumed conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to us as conformed or photostatic copies, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the genuineness of all signatures on all documents submitted to us. As to any facts material to this opinion that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others.
