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...

Kamen Rider fights off weak competition in Japan's new chart

The big-screen version sold 33K at No. 1 over the Vita's 22K at No. 3. In a quiet week, Beyond the Sky, a girly adventure crept in at 11 with 10K sales and Brave Mortal dropped in at No. 17, selling just 7,000 copies.

Vita sales notched up another 17,300 units, which is okay for the time for year. That's still ahead of the latest 3DS model, Vita should do better next week with the new slightly cheaper Starter Kit out. There's also three decent games out tomorrow in Japan including Is the Order A Rabbit? (5pb.) Gundam Breaker (Bandai) and March Atelier Shailie Plus (Gust).

The badly bugged Kan Colle Kai dropped like a stone from No. 1 to No. 7, while Attack on Titan sold another 22K to move up to 84,000 over two weeks.
