June Update: 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 .  June 2026 Update : The latest snippet of gossip for Sony's next-gen systems is a modular/external drive that will connect to both devices. Allowing installation on the portable of physical games, and reducing the cost of the PS6 by making the Blu-ray an accessory (like the PS5 Slim).  I prefer the idea of a dedicated dock on the PS6 that connects the next Portable to your entire PSN library, and they'd better make it work as an extra controller, but I'm sure there are practical benefits to the extra drive.   That should also boost sales of PS4 and PS5 physical games, especially on the second-hand market, as folk...

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.
