New Sony Handheld

Do you think Sony will ever release another handheld?

Eventually but probably not during this Switch era.

Literally the exact same line of thinking that killed vita

Sony makes the lions share of their gaming profit from selling jpegs of girls to chinamen and selling football players and fornite skins to yuropeans

Hardware era is in the past. They will release more games for PSNow and you will be able to play your ps4-5 games on a phone.

I really hope so but I doubt it. I much prefer Sonys aesthetics and bar-handhelds than Nintendos clam-handhelds. They're so much nicer and have more quality.

I wouldn't be surprised if they never did though. Sony never seemed to care much about their portable consoles to the point it makes me wonder why they even bother. I hate how dirty they did the Vita and had the nerve to put one in TLOU 2.

no and that shit looks horrible

>Advertise crossbuy but devs don’t support it
>include 3G that’s pretty much useless
>memory card prices

The list goes on, and I’m pretty sure they were sued for false advertisement as well.

After seeing how they handled the vita, I doubt Sony fans would buy a new Sony handheld

Switch is a shit handheld (and platform in general), since nintendo are killing off the 3DS it might be a good time for sony to swoop in.

It would likely take some arm-twisting at this point, they more or less trashed any reputation the PSP had with the Vita which made a lot of mistakes. If done right, a new Sony handheld could be a good venue for smaller budget titles or as a competitor to the Switch, although a lot of those franchises that were known for their PSP/Vita entries are either dead or moved on, and I can see a new handheld just being as as much of a low-effort port machine as the aforementioned Nintendo console.

I'd think Sony might be more interested in mobile or just simply sticking with one autism box in the meantime.

No they got raped by the ds so badly they'll never step back into the market, especially not when the switch exists now

Sony themselves said they ate since with handhelds
And thank fucking god, they are terrible at them

Hardware hasn't been where companies make money for a long time now, they see that phones are raping the gaming market so they might as well develop for phones instead of creating a more niche $250 device that someone will need to buy full priced games for
Switch is probably the last ever TRUE gaming handheld and we will only get iterations of it ; there will be no more competition

They're going to pivot all their portable assets and staff to focus on VR instead, and develop a PSVR2 instead of another portable. Mark my words

I hope so.

>tons of exclusive weeb games
>proper miku on the go
>PSN

Switch has already far outsold the ps4 and vita combined in Japan
Stay mad

This might be the dumbest post I've ever seen on this board. The 3DS was god awful and they still couldn't beat it. Sony pulled out of the handheld market for a reason.

>Sony
>weeb games
Not with their California management and censorship policies lol

literally nobody owns a switch.

Who cares, the best games don't even get localized for cuck murrifats. Look at the Vita library.

>Current snoy
>Weeb games
user....

I hope so, but it needs to be a ps5 portable, not that vita shit.

I think it could do alright if they don't try to bill it as an over-blown accessory to a main console. Cross functionality is nice but Sony tried to lean too hard into it.

Also forgo the shitty proprietary memory cards.

We've come along way in tech just from when the Vita was being developed and it'll only go further.
Someday soon hybrids (like the Switch) will be the normal probably. Just like every other modern device.

Normies would have the following options for gaming:
>sony shitty handheld
>their phone
Current flagships are already as powerful as last gen consoles and can emulate many handheld games for free. Why even bother?
Asking for sony to please weebs is beyond disbelief.

Sony is busy trying to simultaneously focus their resources on the PS5 and VR
Even if they did make a handheld, their first party developers would be likely to prefer to support the devices with the superior hardware
As for making a hybrid, making one that's on par with the PS4's power while being affordable is not there yet

There's no completing with the Switch right now.

What a shit mock up. Imagine how inefficient that would be, rendering the bits at the side that are effectively covered.

I own one. Aside from being the only way to play it's exclusives; it's shit.

God no

No.

>There's no completing with the Switch right now.
how would you? there are no games to play anyway

Sony would kill the PS5 if it would give them a second FGO, so no, they won't ever go back into a hardware market where they were raped in broad daylight by Nintendo

they had the greatest portable form factor of all time and then they made the monstrosity that is the Vita
