"Let's charge full on handheld console money for a device that can't function away from a PS5!"
This should be doa but it's a PlayStation, it'll probably sell 30 million.
I suspect they may have chosen just the right price. People have paid more than this for controllers that don't come with a screen attached.
That's more for enthusiast hardware. People pay $1000 for keyboards, but that doesn't mean they'll drop $200 for a remote streaming device.
It's literally the same price as the dualsense edge. You overestimating the capacity for reason among "console enthusiasts".
Like I said, I'd consider that enthusiast level hardware. People who game "professionally" or love real flashy things. You can also spend $1000s to make coffee, or get a $10 French press.
So what's your point? That people who will pay this price do exist, or that they don't?
Because now I feel like you're trying to claim the former, to argue the latter.
A streaming device is not enthusiast hardware.
Again, I'm confused, are you saying there are people who will buy this, or not?
And that's a subjective and arbitrary claim. It has no logical merit in arguing for or against whether people will consider this thing worth the price.
Yes... I too have heard of the Wii-U
I am absolutely gonna spend $200 and countless hours of frustration to get this thing to run Yoshi’s Island at ~20 fps
Vita 2 when...
It feels very overpriced considering it's just a streaming device and doesn't have OLED.
A hacked Switch with PS Remote Play makes more sense. Heck even a PS Vita has OLED and already supports Remote Play from a PS5.
Better off just buying a phone clip for your existing dualsense controller
You cannot use any other Bluetooth device apart from the one they just launched?
