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...

NIS America opens European store...

Fans of NIS games this side of the Atlantic will be able to get those juicy limited editions from July 1.

Read the latest on that over on EuroGamer, and sit back and wait for the prices to come down, or the store to fold rather quickly, which would be a shame.

The Danganronpa 2 limited edition is priced for £59.99 and the Disgaea 4 LE at £49.99 (plus postage), which is pushing it even for luxury market gamers, its not as if they're coming with 12" figurines or anything. Yes, there's tax rates to consider, but even that doesn't account for the discrepancy.
