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.

Colt Canyon shoots up the Switch soon

Imagine the Capcom classic Commando, set in a sepia-toned wild west, and with a more open world. Enter the dusty world of Colt Canyon, from Retrific and Headup, where you must rescue your partner in an atmospheric and punchy roguelike six-shooter game.

 Colt Canyon is a 2D pixel art shooter where you control a cowboy, or one of the many other unlockable characters, whose mission is to save his kidnapped partner from the ruthless bandits. Take your gun and TNT and shoot your way through a hostile canyon full of hidden treasures, weapons, obstacles and all kinds of bloodthirsty scum. Maybe you can save more people than just your partner. But watch out. Once you got your partner your job is not done. You'll also have to get back home... 

Features include a range of innovations beyond the smart look. Colt Canyon is skill-based, not about grinding, with a range of roguelike characters and weapons to play and unlock.

Dynamic and immersive environments and enemies plus AI-controlled companions and local Co-op all help add to the action, while upgrades for you and your companions across the randomized, persistent and open levels should give it plenty of depth (and death) with strategic stealth, and fast-paced action and boss fights.

The game hits the Switch on the 16th June and has me all kinds of intrigued!
