Rumor is Sony is making a handheld

[the-pi-guy]

"By the way, I can confirm that Sony is preparing a new PSP for release, but dang - there are only PS4 games in the launch lineup, which are generally available on PC, and therefore on SteamDeck. Retail chains, by the way, are quite sceptical. Either Sony is doing something completely, or they are still keeping secrets from their partners."

That'd be cool but Sony has been so bad with supporting their hardware. Unless it can run games without any extra dev work, just like steamdeck, it's doa.

All i want is a sony style steam deck. 

They will get grilled for not having exclusives,.. nor does steam deck. 

They will get grilled for not supporting 100% of their psn library,.. nor does steam deck.  


To understand this people need to not think of the hardware as a platform but psn as the platform and this is one way to access it.    If this can support all of my "ps4 games" then i'm trading in my steamdeck.  I like the idea but is is soo poorly made and doesn't access my backlog.

I didn't realize PlayStation portal was completely sold out. Maybe it's giving sony some confidence in handheld gaming.

It's been sold out for several months. Actually this past week has been the first time I've seen it reliably in stock.
