PlayStation 6 and PlayStation Portable future visions

 The recent PlayStation video about the "simulated" technology in development, discussed between AMD and Sony engineers that will power the PlayStation 6 was interesting from a geek point of view. But from a gameplay perspective, there is - IMO - no need for a PlayStation 6 for another few years. Especially with the limp Xbox is-it-isn't-it launch .  April 2026 Update:  Compatibility with PS5 and PS4 games seems to be locked-in, as anything the PS6 full fat hardware the portable versions should be able to do as well, with near-invisible trade-offs at the silicon level.  Prices are firming up too with estimates around the PlayStation 6 handheld at between $500 to $700 and a PlayStation 6 at $700 to $1,000, depending on the deepening silicon crisis and Sony's budgeting wizards.  Only a few developers around the world could afford to take advantage of it for AAA+ budget games.

Soul Sacrifice Delta storms to No. 1 in Japan

Here's something new, a Vita game at the top of the chart in Japan, the new Soul Sacrifice Delta leaps out of the blocks with near enough 49,000 sales. That is about half of the original's first week sales, but there are a lot more monster hunter style games out there now, and while the original was well received, I think it only hit around 200,000 sales.

01./00. [PSV] Soul Sacrifice Δ (Sony Computer Entertainment)  - 48.786 / NEW
02./06. [3DS] Yo-kai Watch (Level 5) - 36.018 / 532.472 (-4%)
03./05. [3DS] Dragon Quest Monsters 2:  # (Square Enix)  - 31.157 / 718.865 (-42%)
04./01. [3DS] Harvest Moon: Linking The New World (Marvelous AQL) 29.514 / 160.296 (-77%)
05./00. [PS3] Ar Nosurge: Umareizuru Hoshi e Inoru Uta # (Gust)  - 27.037 / NEW
... 16./09. [PSV] Deception IV: Blood Ties # (Koei Tecmo)  - 6.101 / 25.422 (-68%)
That gave the Vita a nice 10,000 boost on the hardware front and with lots of new stuff coming soon, it should be on a decent roll.
