>PSP 2 starting price will be $600I hate humanity
>>738060683FIVE HUNDRED AND NINETY-NINE US DOLLARS
>>738060683Or they'll sell it cheaper but use a proprietary memory card format. That's how the vita became a success, after all.
>>738060683The seething from Tendies will be unbelievable.
There's pretty much no way Sony would get me interested in something like this.They COULD, if they actually made a prosumer device with free online, the ability to download all my legacy purchases from their previous handhelds and consoles, and a good selection of new and original games, but the idea of sony even considering any of that is just laughable.
>>738060683The seething from Steamies will be unbelievable.
>>738061017Free online would unironically gauge me back. I'm tired of modern consoles taking away our freedom we used to have.
>>738060683A new generation of larpers will rise, can't wait
buy one to play......... what?at least the trannydeck has your steam library or you could install other games / nintendo has their handful of exclusives but what does sony have exactly?
>>738061824They are just going to use it as a glorified emulation console, like the vita/3ds
psp got carried a lot in japan by "anime tie in game of the season" but they alienated that shit a long time ago with their woke american censorship in regards to contentthe system for mobile trash / ports was the switch so theres no need for another
Nobody is gonna buy this shit, they can't even get people to make games for PS5, they're not gonna make anything for this.
>>738061882>They are just going to use it as a glorified emulation console, like the vita/3dsyeah but those system were cheap in comparison
>>738060683It's supposed to be more powerful than this thing according to rumors, you really think they're gonna sell it that cheap? Let's be realistic here.
>>738060683it would have to run games as good as base ps5 to justify that price tagimpossiblei'd love a portable console that's as powerful as base ps5 and can run gta 6
>>738060683What's the point when it won't have any games?
>>738062446'eck can't but it justifies the similar price. it's a different usecase. you don't play the deck when you can and want to play ps5. it's not a replacement.
>>738062053how powerful is this compared to consoles? series s?
>>738062471Sony will make exclusive games for it>Insomniac>Sucker Punch>Bend>Guerilla>Santa Monica>media moleculethey all switched from live service games dev to making single player games now, we're back to the PSP days
>>738062545meh, pc gaming is lame and i don't like poop deck's designi prefer cleaner design like switch/2
>>738060683>PSP 2You mean the Vita?
Oled screen?>>738062571holy shit that trannies companies, no thank
>>738062546It's weaker than the series x since it can't do the same power draw, but it's slightly ahead of the series s
>>738062609>cleaner design like switch/2>no decent gripscringe
you are all retardsit's going to be a portable ps6, that's where the library comes from, it will not get a single exclusive game made purely for the handheldall games ps4-ps6
>>738060683$600 sounds ridiculous at first glance but the PSP 1001 launched at $250 in 2005, which is about $430 when adjusting for inflation in todays dollars.
>>738062789So it's a Sony steam deck?
>>738062763not everyone is an obese landwhale like you
>>738063094Okay, faggot hands, go grab dicks
>>738062970so the switch 2 is close to $250 back in the day? huh
>>738063289Yeah, it costs about as much as a PSP.
>>738063289You also have to keep in mind that PSP was (at the time) using those proprietary memory sticks too. It was like $60 for 128mb lmao.No fucking wonder Nintendo was eating their lunch before the turn of the decade.
It will literally never come out. >7 days oldWhere is the timestamp on the article? Oh wait it doesnt exist faggot.
>>738063491I thought that was only an issue on the vita?
>>738062970>PSP 1001 launched at $250 in 2005,
Can I take SAARos on the go?
>>738063568The PSP used those MS Pro Duo cards. They were sort of proprietary but a lot of brands made them. They were expensive at first but so was literally any flash storage in the mid 2000s. It wasn't at all like the vita where you had to buy shitty memory cards from sony only and they literally never dropped the price on them. If you wanted 64gb of storage you had to shell out $110 right up until the death of the system.
>>738063568Vita was worse and more egregious. Memory stick pro duo was at least used in other Sony products like their cameras.It's not that big of a deal these days though. because we have MicroSD adapters for the pro duo. But before they came around, it was a problem yeah.
>>738060683I wouldn't make a price prediction until the wars are over and the fucking tarifs are still on the table
>>738060683
>600 dollars>Had to increase the price of their refurbished unitslmao
>>738061824The Lastest Last Last of Us Re-Re-Re-Re: Remaster-Remake-Reimagined-Redux Complete Edition Portable
>>738060683This will get eaten up by phones and the fact that people have NO MONEY in this economy to buy anything expensive.
>>738060683While the PSP was kino, it had good games and all it had for competition was Nintendo. I don't think a new one will have any games worth buying one for, especially since the Deck and all it's clones exist.
I just feel Sony is late to the market. Will do okay but not enough to justify continued support.
>>738065786>people have NO MONEY in this economyOnly americans, and only because they were dumb enough to vote for right wing clowns
>>738066124Trannies must hang doe
if it is small enough i will buy iti expect it will be a big tablet slab like the rest of them in which case i will stick to my laptop
>>738066038>dropping support just like they dropped PSVR2here we go again
>>738060683It can't stand on its own in the current vidya landscape. The PSP was the perfect storm, launching at a time were development cost and time were exponentially lower than today, and publishers were more keen on porting or developing new titles even if it meant it wouldn't have the huge install base of the colossal PS2, whose success massively boosted the PSP. Furthermore, it preceded smartphones as a multimedia device by a couple of years. You niggas that weren't alive back then cannot imagine the impact of having a handheld console, an mp3 AND a fucking internet browser all at once. I've even posted on 4chan with that thing back in the day.Now nothing of the above is novel. For PSP 2 to work they have to essentially handle all of 4's catalog at the very least, let alone 5's. Nintendo knew the change in development meant a new handheld console wouldn't stand on its own, that's why they combined their home and portable consoles into one single device. I love the PSP but its success can't simply be replicated in the current day by copying what made it unique 20 years ago.
>>738060683Nut status?
>>738060683If it's not massive in size, I'm buying boughting one.
>>738066552deez
>>738066537the reason why the psp was so popular was because it had a completely unsecured sd card slot on it
>>738065786>NO MONEYIdk about you but I have more than ever before
>>738060683>PSP 2>It'll just play ps5, but worse The era of handhelds is over, and has been ever since the 3DS died.From here on out, handhelds wont have exclusive games, we wont get handheld versions of console game with completely different gameplay, and we wont get comfy experimental anime game. All you will get are console games that run worse just like the switch has
>>738060683why make this now when no one cares about handhelds anymore?
>$600You wish. Maybe if it had a pitiful amount of storage and garbage lcd screen. $750 minimum
>>738066704they want to retake the japanese market
>>738066731People still defend steam deck, and it was released with something like 32gb hddI remember because I thought about buying one to play final fantasy 14 in bed, but realized in last moment that it's impossible to even install games on something like that
>>738066704>no one cares about handhelds anymoreWhat are you on about, everyone has a steam deck or some other handheld thing now for both new games and the old ones on retro handhelds. Not to mention Switch's selling point is the handheld part.
>>738060683I ended up loving my Vita. It had a disappointing lineup of games (besides a few gems), so mine ended up being left in a closet for a decade... and then I realized it's an incredible emulator. Put thousands of hours into it.But the Vita came out like 15 fucking years ago, so it can't even handle N64 emulation for the most part, let alone anything this century. It'd be cool if the PSP 2 ever gets custom firmware, imagine the possibilities! Even faster SNES games!
>>738066996no one over the age of 18 plays switch undocked and the deck if a pc for poor children
>>738060683the playstation handheld can play PS5 games bro
>>738066996>everyone has a steam deckWasn't it a flop even by pc handhelds low standards?Like it sold only 1m or something?
>>738066964the steamdeck has expandable memory, you can buy a 1tb microsd and shove it in
>>738061009why would tendies seethe at another failed PlayStation handheld attempt
>>738060683Sony can't even make games for their main console.
Anyone who is excited about a potential psp 2 has forgotten what era we live in now. The reason the gameboy, ds, psp, 3ds and even vita were special was precisely because they were less powerful consoles with "missing" features (for example, a second analog stick) that had rheir own unique games made for them.a psp 2 would literally just be like a steam deck. just a console you play the games that are made for more powerful hardware on low settings. no unique library, no nothing. there's no point.
If it was 600$ or even 700, it wouldn't be worse than a lot of handhelds. And that'd still be better than any window handheld
>>7380673606 million
>>738062695exactly I thought he was making a joke listing woke leftist shit.
>>738062571>those developersit's fucked
>>738068359>>738062695Obsessed
>>738060719It's Ridge Racer. RIIIDGE RACER! (remember that?)
>>738060683Now add another $100 to this damage controlled amount
>>738062970That's not a great sales pitch.
>>738060683If they can't make it affordable then they shouldn't make it.
>>738062571Hey look, the same losers who sank the Vita's launch!
>>738061882Vita had weeb games and 3ds nintendo games, this thing will have what? Nothing.
>>738068723
>>738060683can't wait to see what proprietary memory kills this idiot, again x3
>>738067346ps5 what?
>>738060683It is unrealistic to expect the prices to remain the same as the cost of inputs and labor go up.
>>738061824God of War: Betterest Man Edition
>PSP 2I will buy one if Sony unironically names it the PSPSPS
PS handheld if it comes out will be way too late. The fact that NS2 will have GTA 6 and FF7 remake trilogy before that thing is even out is nothing but hilarious
>Sony copying nintendo>againlol
>>738075630>Nintendo invented handheld consoles
If the form factor isn’t close to the PSP or Vita then it’s dead in the water.
>>738061824It plays all PS5 games you already own and runs better than the S2 and the SD.
>>738075819
>>738074692You're legitimately delusional if you think S2 can run GTA6. It can't even run Rebirth decently in handheld mode.
>>738060683all the games will be censored or woke trash so who cares
>>738075898>It plays all PS5 games you already own and runs better than the S2 and the SD.So that means it's going to be priced at around $900 at the bare minimum. Look at >>738062053 for a similar price.
>>738075972>in handheld modenice goalpost moving
>>738060683GIVE IT SHIT SPECS BUT GOOD BATTERY LIFELET IT RUN PS1 AND PS2 ISO FILES NATIVELY WITH NO NEED FOR CUSTOM FIRMWARELEAVE AN "ACCIDENTAL" SECURITY FLAW SO PEOPLE CAN HACK ITPROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHEAPER INDIE TITLES FOR ITDAY FUCKING ONE BUYI WOULD EVEN BUY SHIT OFF THE ESHOP AS THANKS FOR RELEASING GOOD FUCKING HARDWARE FOR ONCE
>>738076404It's Sony , its going to be cutting edge, expensive and very flawed.Your "wish" closest thing was already granted, the Switch 2.Xbox is Sony but even shittier.
>>738076404You are lying and obviously won't buy it, even if Sony allowed to play ISO of ps1 and ps2 games, lol
>>738076404Or you could have just bought a RP5 last year and been enjoying exactly what you want for 1/4 the price AND without supporting sony.
>>738075972My Series S will run GTA6 and that's no more powerful than the switch 2
>>738076404>GIVE IT SHIT SPECS BUT GOOD BATTERY LIFE7Then play on one of those Chinese Android consoles and there you have the "battery life" you were looking for
>>738076579>My Series S will run GTA6 and that's no more powerful than the switch 2In terms of CPU, if it's more powerful
>>738076764It's not happening anyway, but I'm sure Rockstar could do it if they wanted.
>>738061009mate each psp model lost to whatever ds was out at the time
>>738076579Factually wrong, tendie. The Switch 2 is on par with the PS4 Pro.
>>738076821>could do it if they wanted.Yes, but it implies more development time that they don't want to spend, and in the end, you won't get a decent result because it would involve making changes to make it run on the Switch's crappy CPU. Nintendo fans buy ports in droves, so it would be more profitable for them to release GTA 5 and RDR 2 first to sell a lot of them. If they release GTA 6, it will cannibalize the sales of those two.
Who the fuck would buy anything Sony at this point when they've made it clear they give zero fucks about you as a consumer?
>>738075972>You're legitimately delusional if you think S2 can run GTA6Strauss seems to be hinting in that direct for a while now. >Strauss Zelnick says Take-Two’s goal is to become the No. 1 entertainment company on the planet with the GTA 6 launch on the horizonKeeps praising NS2 and put RDR2 NS2 on hold for GTA
>>738075898No way it will run ps5 library. At best full ps4 compatibility. Thing is gonna be louder than a beaner civic otherwise
>>738060683it'll be worth it when the slim comes out or it gets cracked
The magical $300 price point died with the Switch. The Switch 2's $450 is the new economical entry point for "new" and is frankly only offset by Nintendo nudging up accessory prices and clever accounting elsewhere, to say nothing of the cost of its cartridges. Everything else in this space is hobbyist boutique pricing. Retail price will also not get cheaper because manufacturing is not getting cheaper. The days of being able to pick up a PS2 at half its launch price two years after it came out is long gone.The other half of it is, let's face it, the only real mainstream handheld is the Switch family. The Switch 2 outsold the entire handheld PC market's lifetime sales in under half a year. Xbox just pivoted to a rebranded ASUS ROG Ally, which by all accounts did pretty well by the standards of the market, simply because they couldn't make the commitment to a full custom handheld because they couldn't invest in a guaranteed production of ten million units, a number that's absurdly out of reach even to ones that have been on the market forever like the aforementioned Steam Deck. Sony's output is already glacial with its one existing platform, what would be the point of a handheld that would obviously be limited in what it could play?The days of "Gaming is a cheap hobby" are in the rearview mirror. If you're not just playing F2P live service stuff you better be a working adult with some disposable income.
>>738060683another game-streaming device from snoy?
With half, if not a quarter of the amount of games the normal PSP had :DBUT I CAN PLAY GOD OF SNOY AT THE PARK OR AT THE DOCTORS OFFICE. YEEEEEEEEAAAAAH
>>738062053>new amd chip is more powerful than oldWow!!!
