PlayStation 6 and PlayStation Portable future visions

 The recent PlayStation video about the "simulated" technology in development 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.

Sony Japan to unveil new PS VIta titles March 9, plus big news at GDC

That's what Sony Japan (news c/o Andriasang) is up to with a 9th March webcast called PS Vita Game Heaven (or paradise depending on the translation) in which viewers can not only win PS Vitas but also find out about the first big post-launch batch of titles, new services and more.



Will it be Monster Hunter? Probably not (Capcom will likely announce that at Captivate in early April). How about a Final Fantasy title? Maybe. Gran Turismo Portable 2? Don't get me started! Who knows? One good point is that the event is live on this site at 8PM Japan time which makes it a palatable 11AM in the UK.

What do you want to see from the event...
