Any handheld consoles with parental controls? Mainly looking for timed sessions (programming.dev)

Having the parental controls to limit someone’s play session is a newer concept. Most older systems like PS2, PSP, and PS3 just have age restrictions on the games, where a parent needs to unlock the system to play. (At which point you could just start a timer)

You might be able to leverage that.

Otherwise the oldest system I am aware of that has this feature is PlayStation Vita according to its manual.
