This is good for vanlifers who can’t fit a TV inside their vans, parents of small kids who don’t own iPads, and… that’s it? 🤔
Can you even use this as a standalone second controller for the PS5?
Just buy a portable monitor. There are even ones with OLED or high refresh rates now.
It’s like the Wii U, except with even lower adoption rates
Daily reminder that Stephen Totilo (currently of Axios, formerly of Kotaku) would plug his Wii U into airport wall outlets and play games on the tablet controller thingy
Sony looked at their metrics and saw that 99% of PS Vita owners only used it for Remote Play and came to entirely the wrong conclusion.
I don’t know why they don’t also let you run Android apps on the thing, it apparently even runs Android under the hood!
$200 is a little pricey for such a single-use accessory to a $400–$500 game console
I still don’t understand why it exists and who thought that it would sell.
I would totally buy this if the price wasn’t so outrageous. This things as expensive as a Switch Lite.
It looks very pointless as is, but it would actually be amazing if it could play cloud games. People who don’t have a PlayStation could potentially get this and a $15 subscription.
for the people who will inevitably jailbreak it and make it work with their home PC, or try to run emulators on it.
“Or try to run emulators on it” this
Well some people though Quibi would make money
This should of been $100 max
It is, there just also happens to be a $100
