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.

The Intellivision numeric function pads and disc controls won't be an issue as games will be individually adapted for modern controls. The first three games announced for Collection 1 are early-80s efforts, Frog Bog, AstroSmash and Night Stalker for some shooting, maze running, fly munching action. 

Update: The rest of the titles for the first collection have been revealed. 

There's a decade of titles to choose from so hopefully a few more recent ones will make the list. Hopefully they won't drag out announcing the other nine over too long. 

Whatever your feelings for Intellivision, this is another great sources of games for the Evercade and helps round out its position as the ultimate retro handheld. If you fancy the modern version of the Intellivision, the Amico is up for pre-order now.
