$200 to play a console game on a different screen only within the same network is insane. You could spend $100 more and get a full blown handheld console. This is fucking stupid, Sony.
Yeah, it’s the price that bothers me the most about this. For the same amount, you can get a whole Switch Lite.
And I’m still salty about how they treated the Vita. This is what we get as the first handheld successor to the Vita? And the Vita didn’t cost much more.
Switch lite is a much smaller screen and also 720 instead of 1080p. So yes, you could spend the same to get a switch lite, but if you don’t plan on buying Nintendo games, why on earth would you? The controller is nowhere near comparable to a ps5 controller and all other aspects of gaming around the house would also be worse.
Buying a PS5 controller is like $80, so at this point you’d be spending another $120 for the nice screen and big battery.
What are you buying for $300? Steam deck is about as cheap as you can get and that’s for $360. It’s also heavier, smaller screen, has a lower quality screen, and will run out of battery quicker.
So if you don’t do pc gaming, why on earth would you want to spend closer to double the price?
You know why you think it’s a stupid product? You either live alone or you still live with mom and dad and have a ps5 in your bedroom. This product isn’t for you, and you’re an idiot for thinking if it’s not something little ol you would want, than no one else must have a use for it, either.
Intelligence check: Critical fail. A switch is $220 used and can be played on the couch and also on someone else’s couch. Nice projection about living with mom and dad, it cracks me up when people accuse strangers on the internet of things. Proud homeowner of 6 years here, dipshit. Remember the crowd you’re berating on Lemmy, we tend to skew older than those on other cesspits you likely frequent
You realize this is a good product if you live with your parents? You don’t need to hog the TV. Living alone and buying this bullshit, now that’s a stupid decision.

Yeah Sony is smoking some good shit these days thinking people will buy this

You could likely get it to work outside of your network using a VPN, maybe.

This feels like too much emotion for the subject matter.
Edit: removed an errant “a” that made the sentence read as if Mario wrote it.
Ironically, it’d make more sense if you lived with mom and dad, you play ps5 while they watch whatever they watch all in the same room

Ah. So you don’t deny you live alone. Just deny living with mom and dad. My point still stands then .

That depends on if the ps5 is in your bedroom and not the family room. My kids system is just in his room, so he’d have little use for this.
