Sony has suggested its next-gen console — widely assumed to be the PlayStation 6 — could work like the Nintendo Switch by enabling “a seamless experience that can be enjoyed naturally beyond the living room.”

I have no idea what this would mean in practice.

    I don’t give much of a shit about the article, but that title… that quote is dripping with sleaze. Like slop off the snout of a freshly fed pig. Absolutely greasy.

    High-res touchscreens and batteries are cheap. Silicon, processors, and memory are expensive. I expect to see a ton of these “handhelds” in the next few years

    The article brings it up too, but I suspect this actually means streaming games. I can see it sort of making sense where you already own a digital library and via some subscription, can stream those games to specific devices.

      Isn’t this what Xbox tried and failed to do a few years back? And Google Stadia?

      It doesn’t need to be subscription. The Playstation Portal can already stream your local machine and library beyond living room with a seemless experience. So maybe they plan on doing a Wii U inspired setup by default?
