The PlayStation Vita is one of the best handheld games consoles ever made so when news started circulating that Sony was working on a new handheld device we all started to get excited.
Then they announced Project Q. A remote play only device that MUST be tethered to a PlayStation 5 essentially making it a very expensive DualSense that’s been sliced in half and had a screen glued to it. Prices are rumoured to be in the £250 - £300 range for a device that can’t play a single game on its own. There are suggestions it will eventually be able to stream games from the cloud but this isn’t certain yet.
You could buy a Backbone One for £100 then you essentially have one of these which makes the rumoured price seem, shall we say, a tad high.
Do you plan on picking one up or are you going to stick with using your phone?
I’m sure there will be some steamdeck tomfoolery to work around the typical sony bs. I’ll wait for that.
Even if they just added enough power to emulate PS1, PS2 & PSP games on top of the remote play I’d be very interested but I’m not sure who this is for.
Yes, just buy a Steamdeck. This “controller” should cost less than $150 to make it worthwhile.
