  • Hello guys and gals, it's me Mutahar again! This time we take a look at what appears to be the Playstation Portal. I would normally be excited for a new Playstation handheld but Sony has dropped the ball and released quite possibly the most barebones device in gaming history. Thanks for watching!

      After PS2's success, they thought they could do no wrong. Then PS3 had the midlife crisis refresh in 2009 with the soft relaunch, logo update, packaging update, and so many new games that it sold more systems than Xbox 360 and caught up despite losing. Then when the Vita came out (2011) they were full of themselves again.

      It was the duck's guts. The memory cards were a part of the problem, but it mostly boiled down to a lack of support from major studios. Basically all its notable games came out within a year of launch, and that was it. Sony decided it was more profitable to put all their eggs into the PS4 basket, than to split development resources to save a faltering platform. After they pulled out, everyone else quickly followed suit. The indies and obscure JRPGs that came out afterwards weren't enough to give it any more than niche appeal.

      Or a phone plus a $60 dualsense and then a phone holder.
      Yes, the PHONE does other things. The dualsense could connect to a PC (ignore that because we're talking about PS5) but Kishi are limited to only playing on the phone and those go up to $150. What's $50 more for the 1st party complete package?

    The Portal looks like a prototype. Like some rough sketch that someone made for a patent filing. The placement of the analogue sticks inside the screen bezel is bizarre. As for the TV fight thing, that's one fringe use case. But you can buy a brand name 28'' 4K monitor now for the same or less money. Sony kind of has a history of this stuff though. Remember the "PlayStation 3D Display", and how dog water that thing was? And that was $500 back in 2011.

The inconsistency can come from server side, so you might encounter different results even if you changed nothing in your setup. There is just no way around that.
    Obviously this also means that the moment it is no longer profitable to run the servers, the portal will worth as much as it's components for salvaging.

    on top of the price gouging of memory, they placed little emphasis on cartridge sales. most games could only be bought digital, dampening their own sales. you had to use another computer to store your games(which took hours and 2-4 GB's ) before you could even begin downloading a new game. You couldn't just keep the save and delete the game cause the saves of digital copies could not be separated.

On the PS4 there's actually an option that allows the two to connect without the need of a router and still it has had issues by just the slightest movement. I've tried it on my phone when it became more widely available on Android devices and still had issues with lag. Tried it a few months back on Deck with chiaki, gyro controls playing The Order 1886 was amazing, still the image would start to lag and turn green.

      I'm convinced that the Playstation Portal was originally intended to be a streaming portal for PSNow - following on the heels of Microsoft's developments in cloud gaming. It even looks like early mock-ups and prototypes of Microsoft's own handheld streaming devices. Thing is, Microsoft gave up on the idea of a dedicated device for streaming and instead released a cell phone controller cradle. It's like Sony tried to follow in their footsteps, came to the same realizations that it was impractical, but unlike Microsoft - either had supply contracts already in place or didn't want to pay for backing out of them - so they just neutered it, gave it a slight redesign, and then offloaded it onto their gullible fanboys in an attempt to recoup costs.

    I have to wonder if the reason the Browser was left out is because most of the cracks for recent consoles (well besides the Launch Switch) have all originated from the Web Browser. Sure, maybe it was just an oversight, but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't a factor. I'm actually kind of baffled it can't connect directly. Remote Play back on the PS3, both via PSP and Vita, started out with the device connecting directly to your PS3. I actually played and beat AC: Black Flag on my PS3 via Remote Play on my Vita. It worked great, and never had any issues because I just connected directly to my PS3.

    Edit: recently got a Playstation portal gifted by my grandma (never expected it but appreciated it obv 😊) and now I'm conflicted since it is nice but I wouldn't recommend it if you don't have unlimited mobile data with like 5g internet connection and ur ps5 on for like 24/7 while at work. It's kinda worthless but also worth it if you're an hardcore Playstation gamer lol. The device still looks ugly as sh*t tho

    What's wild is the PSP and Vita actually let you stream PS3 and PS4 to them! So Sony SHOULD have this tech on lock by now!
    And yes I can confirm what you said about portables. The Switch is a dream come true for me because I can play it seriously on a big screen, but I can also just leave it by my bed and grind levels until I pass out. Steam Deck is a little finnicky for me but it also lets me do a very similar thing since the saves are backed up on the cloud. The portable/console dynamic is great.

    Sheer fact PlayStation Portal is that it requires WiFi to operate, requires you own a PS5 already, can't play locally and no web browser then only has a 4 hour battery life. Switch or your phone you can use public wifi, data or even local offline play without any additional devices required to own with a 8-10 hour battery life. Like IGN said, this was a product that had cheaper and better solutions already.

    I pre ordered it and I hate it with a passion. Multi second input delay with constant disconnections every 20-30 mins, 800ping spikes and constantly jumping from 1080- to 240p at times. I literally cannot see what’s on the screen when the latency spikes. My internet isn’t even bad and never had connection issues with my ps5. For some reason 3 antennas isn’t enough to hold constant connection.

    • @clappedshinobi2863
      @clappedshinobi2863 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Also the portal is in constant battle with your normal controllers to be controller #1. Had an issue where I literally had to turn off all controllers for my portal to send information to the game what profile is signed in. My portal can be player 1 signed into primary profile but if you have another controller turned on as controller #2 the game will default to the actual controllers profile even tho its controller #2 the game will think it’s the primary controller.
