I’m glad steam deck propelled a new wave of handheld consoles that actually has decent specs
I even saw an article yesterday indicating Sony is developing something as well. 2 years away, but still, I never thought they were going to try again after the psp and Vita failure (failure is subjective, I still love my psp). I fully believe the success of the steam deck has revived there interest in it as well.
Is this something new? 'Cause they had that remote-play screen for the PS5 a while back that seemed to come and go without anyone noticing.
Because it’s not the same class of device. The PS Portal is very niche. It’s a $200 device that basically just runs the PS Remote Play app.
I’ve used PS Remote Play on my phone and laptop, and it’s just not good in the cases I actually want to use it: when traveling away from home. Even with a good Internet connection it’s only “okay”. It’s utterly useless when in transit (trains, places, etc.), and 99% useless in any public place (e.g. cafe or library WiFi).
These are all cases where the Switch, Deck, and similar devices excel. The PS Portal addresses a much smaller market.
Not referring to the portal, I still have no idea why it exists. This is a recent leak of a new handheld.

There’s the Playstation Portal, which only streams games from a PS5, and does a worse job than a Steam Deck… Which probably explains why so few people care.

Yes, it’s just a leak, but I hope it’s true.

Soon, Only Not Yet.
Yeah hopefully we can get something decent in the 300 dollar range. I haven’t looked too much into these but they all seem to be 6-800.
