Why no option for “No and I never intend to”?

That’s my choice right there.

No, I don't see the point of jt.

I've already got a Switch and a Steamdeck for when my kid is asleep, and the PS5's exclusive lineup is so thin that I'll never play the Portal.

@last_lap: Just to play in general. Only want one TV in house, so kids take that up when they are allowed to play. Now I can play mature games they don't need to be seeing in the same room.

But where is the option for "I already have one via my phone/tablet" option?

@Chutebox said:

@last_lap: Only want one TV in house,

Interesting strategy. Is that because modern people just use their mobile device way more in the house vs an actual TV set?

I said they would've had me day 1 at $149 for it.

@Chutebox: Only 1 TV in your house, geez. I have 5 (1 in each bedroom and 1 in the loungeroom) and a couple in storage in the shed in case of an emergency lol.

I never got into handheld gaming, well that's a little bit of a lie as I did own a heap of Game & Watches back in the day. I just couldn't do it today as the screen is so small.

@last_lap: Well, not entirely true

We do have a smaller one right by the living room, but I have 6 kids, 5 of which like video games. So no room for me on either of the tvs.

I had one preordered but canceled it. I bought some PC parts instead. I’ll keep an eye on them for a few months and grab one when it makes sense. I have 2 PS5s in the house and could make use of the device. There’s just not any games on the console that makes this streaming only device a must have right now.

@nod_calypse: Playstation Portal is the reason you Playstation fanboys are called COWS.

You could spend $10 and buy a clip for your dual sense abd USE THE FREE PLAYSTATION APP and get the same experience.

Did I say "same"? Sorry, I meant BETTER. Why better? Because the Portal has no web browser, and your phone does. Why is that important? Because you can't get on any networks without signing on via a browser! You can't play at Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, McDonalds, a hotel room, etc WITHOUT a browser to sign in.

So, to "play on the go" you have to (dum dum duuuum) TETHER TO YOUR PHONE! You could have just spent $10 on the dual sense clip for your phone and used the app.

It doesn't even have PS Cloud support. You can't even use native Bluetooth- it will only work with Sony blue tooth devices.

So, Congratulations, Sony Fans! You just got milked for $190!!! Rejoice!

Oh please. It’s an optional accessory to be able to play your ps5 in bed or on the shitter while your family is using the main tv. that’s the extent of it - optional accessory.

imagine paying for 3 years of gamepass waiting for 7field and Redfail lol. That’s the real milking bro

I showed my coworker today who is in his 40s and has 3 children and he think it’s perfect for someone like him who doesn’t get to play on the TV much. Somehow Sony found a hidden market for this thing lol. He was also surprised by how good the hardware is.

@WitIsWisdom: some of the sales are scalpers. It didn't sell out on the Playstation store until a few hours before release. Now there's a bunch on ebay for $400+.

I'm not saying it won't sell because it does have its market. I am the market. It's just not for me right now. Not at the current price at least. At $149 I would've got one. I enjoy playing in handheld anymore. It fits my lifestyle with my daughter and wife watching tv.

It's funny how all of a sudden people only have 1 tv in their house and need this thing🤣

And funnily enough this was in my YT feed today so I thought I would share it with you, enjoy 😁

It's pretty fucking funny that Sony fans praise a many years later and worse Wii U controller for 200 bucks.

"Somehow Sony found a hidden market for this thing"

xD
