July 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 .  July 2026 Update : Sony managed a cannon-fire sized self-inflicted injury by announcing the end of physical releases across the end of the PS5 era and the launch of the PS6. Due to lack of sales (only 7 titles have passed the 100,000 mark in the last year) and economics, it still doesn't matter to PlayStation owners, collectors are stores, who can now only sell digital codes in a box.  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.

Megatagmension Blanc + Neptune Vs Zombies hits UK No. 1

The UK Vita retail chart doesn't need many sales for a game to hit No. 1. I have no idea how few such a niche game with a terrible title managed, but all hail Megatagmension Blanc + Neptune Vs Zombies from Idea Factory, Compile Heart and Tamsoft.


What do we reckon, 100 to 300 retail sales? How much long will any publisher continue to put games on shelves, perhaps opting for own-store retail limited editions or pre-order to publish schemes like Limited Run. Or, they'll go all digital and that's out lot for the little blue cases.

Over on PSN, where frankly most of the action is these days, there's plenty of small titles rushing to the top to mix in it with Japan's bigger titles. Hopefully Severed sold well enough in its first weeks to make DrinkBox feel it was worth the effort, although only 179 ratings suggest it didn't go mental.

1. Neverending Nightmares
2. Corridor Z
3. Azkend 2
4. Ray Gigant
5. The Sun and the Moon
6. Severed
7. Aegis of Earth
8. Risk of Rain
9. Axiom Verge
10. Samurai Warriors 4 Empires

God Eater 2 is already atop the Amazon UK Vita top sellers thanks to hefty pre-orders, among a mix of oldies with Megatagmension only making into just into the top 10.
