>in robot voice "MIDSTATION"

They are so afraid of the Switch 2.

>>712822637 (OP)
>saars pls stop buying switch 2's there's a new snoy console incoming it will bring you portable lesbian adventures in space

>>712822908
If devs are forced to develop with a portable device in mind maybe we can scale down from this graphixfaggotry we're currently living in.

16gb of shared ram would be funny

so another generation where devs have to cater to the gimped hardware

>>712823098
But that would only make the Switch2 stronger because games would be optimized for handhelds now.
This only hurts the Deck

>>712822908
They completely lost their domestic market chasing Europe and America and now they are losing those markets too. I think this a case of seeing someone else that is so much more competent than them it triggered an identity crisis

Basically this is PS5's equivalent of Series S, except less limiting than Series S, while also with limited PS5 compatibility.

Future PS5 games might be forced to release on handheld, but old games would have to be updated to potentially use lower performance/resolution modes.

>>712822908
they're completely different markets dummy
the only thing they have in common is that they're illiterate normie machines

sony want to be nintendo so bad lmao it'd almost be cute if it wasn't so pathetic

>>712822637 (OP)
Because having the most powerful handheld worked so well the last two times.

>>712823649
Sony has no idea what it wants to be, if they actually wanted to be Nintendo they wouldn't have shut down Japan studio which was their most Nintendo like dev and they wouldn't have bought bungie while green lighting a billion aborted gaas projects. They also wouldn't have abandoned their domestic market to chase pots of gold in foreign lands

>>712823624
The difference being the switch two has games coming out while sony cancels theirs

>>712824032
It's always funny to see tendies pretend they care about Japan Studio.

>>712824117
Always funny to see a snoy dumbfounded that people can emulate or have multiple consoles

>>712823649
Everybody is working on a handheld. Nintendo is not special anymore.

>new Sony handheld
>when Japan Studio isn't around to support it
No fucking thanks

Portable ps5, that would be how much ?900 dollar? 1000?

>>712824309
None of these handhelds are really portables, they're all way too big.

>>712824309
The difference being nintendo is the only one making it cost less than $700 or be some 3rd party seller like Asus

>>712824438
I don't see them going back to vita sized. Handheld that fits in your pocket is a thing of the past.

>>712824365
japan studio was around back when the vita released and they still didn't support it other than gravity rush

>>712824520
The Sony handheld will probably be subsidized too. $450 isn't exactly cheap.

>>712822637 (OP)
This shit will be 800 USD and suddenly the price won't be a factor anymore.

>>712824117
oh but I do care

I'll gladly play gravity rush once it makes its way to the switch like patapon and minna no golf, snoyjeet-chan ;)

>>712824183
I'm not even convinced you've played a single JS game. Quit being a poser.

>>712822637 (OP)
No games?

>>712824660
There is no conceivable way in hell they can release something with PS5 tech in it for anywhere around $400. The loss per unit sold would be astronomical

>>712824771
K

>>712822637 (OP)
They will have more consoles than exclusives lmao

>>712822908
They are banking on pocket PC market and success of Portal. PS Portal apparently massively exceeded Sonys expectations and sold more than their VR kits somehow. I wonder who the fuck buys that shit and why but yeah thats apparently a thing somehow.

>>712824804
PS5 is using Zen 2 processor with RDNA 1.5 graphics, that's 2019 hardware essentially.
This would be using UDNA.

Steam Deck is already not THAT far off when it comes to running PS5 games at low resolutions.

>>712822637 (OP)
So, will it use cartridges like the switch and the vita, right?

>>712825368
You can expect it to be fully digital

>>712824891
Yep, not a single game. Pathetic. Pretend you care about something else poser. Stick to pretending you play nintendo games at least no one will check your homework.

>BB isn’t Japan studio
Ok champ

>>712825082
Nobody asked for you noise, imbecile

>>712824520
Deck is cheaper.

>>712825872
And is only sold from steam as opposed to walking into an electronics store and buying it

>>712826053
Not really, you can buy Deck at retailers

>>712826206
Where? Never seen it at target, Best Buy, GameStop or Walmart

>PS5 dev kits are getting reduced bandwidth mode, suggesting unified game development and that current PS5 games could be updated to work on handheld
Didn't MLID report on this a few weeks ago?

>stops replying
That right, run away coward

>>712826268
I'm in Europe and I can get them

>>712825730
Imagine being too afraid to respond >>712825539 because you look like a tool. Bloodborne is a Fromsoft game. Japan Studio had no creative control over the project you faggot poser.

>>712822637 (OP)
>>UDNA based
Bullshit. RDNA4 just released and AMD are new releasing a new CDNA. UDNA won't be ready for a good while.

>>712822908
switch has the entire handheld market in its the palm of its hands. the steam deck is a mere drop in the bucket, so of course sony wants a piece of the pie too

712826813
so I guess that part of the gamebox that says japan studio on it means nothing

>>712826742
where? you still have yet to name any place selling them

>>712827720
Dumb fuck.

>>712824771
If there's an anon who hasn't played Tokyo Jungle then they can get the fuck off my video game discussion board.

712827860
nowhere close to an argument, I accept your concession

Nintendo pissing and shitting itself rn lol.

>>712828076
yah, because as we know the vita and PSP were so successful

>>712822637 (OP)
There is zero reason to buy handheld consoles anymore.
If it's larger than a smartphone you may as well just buy a normal home console.

>>712823480
>chasing Europe
lol
lmao
We are not like mutts.

>>712822637 (OP)
Cool, can it be docked like the Switch? If not, I don't care.

>>712828205
The PSP was successful. Are you stupid?

>>712824438
>>712824564
They are very portable, just not in your poket.
I never put a console in my pocket anyway, you will ruin it, only stupid kids do it. I welcome portables like the Deck, fucking finaly no Nintendo gimmicks and games, unlike with Sony.

>>712828509
against the DS?

>>712825052
>sold more than their VR kits somehow
That shouldn't be surprising at all. The VR games industry is an extremely poor state and the quality of its video game output is abysmal (most of them are basically worthless shovelware) and by far the most worthwhile content comes from community mods and community ports of "flat" games to VR.

VR on PS is locked to Sony's walled garden and as such all that community content does not exist, you would have to be insane to buy that shit. They've released some limited support for the headset on PC, but I think it's too little, too late. That's why it's easy to expect that some generic streamer handheld which at least works with all the shit on the base PS console would sell more, the addressable market is far larger than walled garden VR crap.

>>712828509

>>712822637 (OP)
It will be the first console to have -1 games.

>>712824762
This for sure.
>$800
>won't have any features that the PS5 controller didn't already have (if not less)
>digital only, no physical media
>gonna need those fucking special proprietary SD cards that are triple the price of normal ones, just to expand its internal memory
>always online, PS+ will probably be mandatory to use it
>$100 games

>suddenly, this time it's different and based

>>712827720
actually
where is it?

>>712822637 (OP)
Nintendo won so hard that everyone had to change and copy them

>>712823186
hardware isn't really the problem anymore, PC has insanely powerful hardware and it's being completely wasted on inefficient bullshit that doesn't improve gameplay

>>712824117
its always funny to see console warriors project their ancient playground bullshit onto people who dont even use consoles anymore.

>>712828283
we buy playstation in such large numbers they handed the entire company to a 2 europeans who fucking killed the brand

>>712834672
If you're in burgerland you forfeited your Europeaness, I don't make the rules. Once in America, always a mutt.

>>712835256
Everything gay in this modern era is a co-op game with California and the Europeans.

I don’t travel much so I wouldn’t buy one unless it had really good exclusives

>>712822637 (OP)
>Cheap tablet with oppressive Snoy OS and some stupid chopped up controller shit on the side
stop

>>712822637 (OP)
why is sony making a handheld, to play what games?

>>712822637 (OP)
whatever, it won't even sell 10 million units

>>712824117
retard
>>712824597
actual retard.

>>712822637 (OP)
this is how they'll justify charging 900 dollars for the PS6
>can't afford it? just buy the handheld bro

>>712838860
>why is sony making a handheld, to play what games?
All the games that get released as exclusives and PC fags say are walking simulators but then get released on Steam an are the highest played games that year

>the more consoles, the better!
They really think they can just get by releasing more consoles instead of more games lmao

if every console turn into mobile slop can't devs just make games for phones in the first place?

>>712822908
It’s more that they are losing their market to Steam so they are trying to move into handhelds. Hybrids are the default now for consoles as PC has eroded the traditional home console. Japan is really the only market that is left where hybrid will have a significant share (Nintendo will likely struggle in the US this generation) and Japan is handheld country.

>>712842190
they tried that, phone users just don't buy full fledged games

>>712824438
Battery and heat

It's hard to fix this, otherwise it they would be phone sized just fine.

>>712843352
This
RE2 on a phone is just a e-peen flex, that's it. Phone game users only care about gambling and things they can mindlessly play.

>>712822637 (OP)
i'm down as long as it's an actual handheld or xperia play 2

there are no fucking handhelds anymore...
