The days of sitting huddled under blankets late at night so I could play Pokemon with the sound on, nowadays I'm an adult and can do that kind of stuff during the day (cause I have working headphones now)and it's only been recently that I actually heard the full soundtrack of a handheld game. Normally I listen to the first 4-5 tracks (equal to about 3-4 hours: Title theme, town theme, battle theme, dramatic cutscene theme, boss theme) before I finished the first session of play then don't bother with the volume from then on. The exception being Golden Sun: The Lost Age, where I had working headphones, a somewhat rare commodity in my life (I tended to buy very cheep ones which don't last long), since then it's been a steady succession of more and more titles, from one or two GBA games, to a dozen DS titles, to pretty much every 3DS game I've played to date.
There are many games which have great songs in them that I just missed out on cause I didn't have the gear and someday (with help probably from speed runs and pirated OSTs) I'll hear them.
