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?

    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.
