Sony is developing a new game cartridge.

So basically the VITA all over again?

bet it's similar but you can play legit ps5 games. but to potentially put the physicals on a new proprietary format makes no sense for real.

The vita was a great system that Sony let die.

I dont trust Sony with anything that's not their mainline console.

I love the psvr but Sony has not done enough to support it in my opinion.

I wish you guys would stop saying this you only need 1.5mb for internet gaming...

Spoiler

Along with today's clarification of the online requirements of the Xbox One, Microsoft also gave us an internet speed target: "For an optimal experience, we recommend a broadband connection of 1.5Mbps." That doesn't seem unreasonable

So coli, who doesn't have that but can afford a next gen/current gen system

The argument that these billion dollar companies will limit what their systems can do because there's a poor neighborhood somewhere is and is rooted in internet folklore ONLY. CUT THAT shyt OUT MY nikkaZ

This is for playing multiplayer online, that type of connection is trash when your expecting people to download 100+GB games with data limitations.

They not gonna do shyt with it

They had arguably the greatest handheld device in the Vita and let it go to shyt just like they’re doing with PSVR

I was thinking they could get away from discs by having a 'cartridge' you could load at a retailer. they have some kind of kiosk at Walmart, etc. you pay for the game, put your cartridge in, and it loads the (authenticated) game onto the cartridge. you then go home and install it on your console

it could be an option for those with crappy internet. they would just have to make it 'impossible' to hack

that's a dope idea

I wouldn’t be shocked if Sony made a switch-like console or add on for the PS5.

All those niche Japanese games and jrpg developers are going to flock to the switch since a lot of them have been performing extremely well on that platform, I can’t imagine Sony letting Nintendo eat off that market that Sony has had since the PS1

Psvr is very successful....over 3milli sold

If they would support whatever this is, I wouldnt mind. That early game Vita headshot was cruel and unnecessary

 

[Kings County]

Sony patented this Switch looking thing early last year before the Switch released.

And Sony worldwide CEO spotted at the Switch event right around the same time

Now they’re patenting cartridges.

nikka bout to steal all they ideas

Psvr is very successful....over 3milli sold

And less that 2.5 million use it

Nobody is doing any of that.
