Has the source ever done fake leaks before? And is reputable?

There is no way that Sony can make another handheld after shitstorm Vita was.

I haven't had a Sony console since the PS2 and I wanted to get the switch but it costs too much and has not that many games. If this leak is real and is more powerful than the switch, Nintendo is probably fucked. I think there are a lot of people in the same position as me.

>>378300652
This will fail harder than the Vita and you know it.

>>378300652
why?

>>378301414
>nintendo is fucked
The switches sell like hotcakes and due to the limited availability there are still a ton of people who want a switch but haven't had the opportunity to get one.

If somehow sony can get a killer lineup of games announced within a few months of the launch while nintendo keeps up their stupid artificial scarcity shit then they have a chance to do some minor catch up. Also since the PS4 sold relatively well, if they figure out some cool and useful inter-compatibility deal, it will be a very attractive selling point to PS4 owners

>>378301913
Well that was what I was alluding to, if it has around the same power as the PS3 and gets good ports and exclusives it will definitely take a chunk out of Nintendo's sales. But if it ends up being a vita 2.0 I'll just get the next revision of the switch.

>>378302172
I don't know, because sonybro's are weebs? I just chose it cause it was playstation related.

>>378300652
Sony is not making a new handheld and they definitely wouldn't debut it at E3

>>378300652

It was a viral marketing ploy in /v/.

So it will also feature tons of pantsu virgin fapbait to stay afloat?
MonHun is on the Switch which is a gigantic pull on the japanese market.

>vita is a complete failure in the West
fixed that for you.

there's only one reason to make a new handheld and that's for Japan and to keep a death grip on the smaller Japanese devs like Gust and Compile Heart, like if Sony knew devs like that planned to move their games off of PSV/4 and to Switch and PC it might be worth it to make a new handheld.

I just don't see it happening, something that's head and shoulders better than the Vita that still allows for easy PS4 porting.

>>378302710
Didn't China just ban every single console a few years ago

>>378302623
Vita sells like crap in Japan currently and only sold 5 million lifetime whereas the 3DS sold 22+ million so far. It sold just as poorly in Japan as everywhere else it just had better software support.

>>378300652
They can't make something more powerful than the Switch without sacrificing battery or price. The battle with the Switch will be in games, and if we learned something from vita is that sony doesn't have a system seller for handhelds. PSP is still cool thanks to emulation tough.

>>378302958
Okay so he uses his PSP Go and Playstation 3 to play games with his PSP Go on a TV and not with his PS3.
What's the appeal again? It would be extraordinary if he could hook up a PSP without the PS3.

>>378301414
Unless the games this year will be absolutely amazing, Nintendo will probably have some trouble with Sony, yes.

No he doesn't really need a PS3. Just a DS3. That statement is wrong.

If you're trying to keep scarcity up, you don't burn money flying units to places, the most money inefficient way of moving products around. Nintendo got jittery from the WiiU and initial 3DS sales. Consider that the Switch is the same price as the WiiU at launch and $50 more than the 3DS at launch. They expected it to do WiiU numbers, so they had WiiU numbers ready to go. Lo and behold it's selling out of all that stock nearly immediately and sale reflect a slightly higher than WiiU only after a few weeks, although the initial launch week was higher.

>>378300652
Successor to the handheld that got completely abandoned by Sony and flopped in the west. No thanks.
I wanted the Vita to be more of PSP, but it ended up just being a niche weeb machine. The only games after Sony abandoned the thing worth a damn were from Falcom.

>>378303321
>inefficient way of moving products
These kinds of products specifically, I mean. And in bulk.

>>378303098
So Sony is knowingly pushing out a PS5 after their PS4.5 aka Pro shat the bed? With handheld gimmicks knowing how weak the Vita was due to the combination of nogaems and too expensive hardware?

>>378301913
>The switches sell like hotcakes

It has sold less than the WiiU.

>>378300652

>>378302021
>psp barely holds together due to emulation and monhun

Sold better than the 3DS.

>>378303415
You're right. If the switch couldn't outsell the lifetime sales of Wii U in 2 months, it might as well be a flop.

>>378303415

No shit, a 5 year old console sold more than a 3 month old console.

>>378303487
Without the PS3 I believe it would register as a generic bluetooth controller

>thinking Sony will release a traditional handheld and not some shitty handheld/smartphone hybrid

anyway, who cares? it'll have as many games as its vita predecessor, which is none

>>378302021
Because its been happening throughout history:

>Nintendo successful
>SEGA appears to try the same thing
>Nintendo successful
>Sony appears to try the same thing
>PS2 successful
>Microsoft appears to try the same thing
>Wii motion
>Playstation move
>Kinect
>Switch

And now, right on time, is Sony, ready to try and capture whatever market of people are buying the Switch, like always.

>>378303491
>comparing PSP and 3DS instead of PSP and DS or Vita and 3DS
Yeah let's compare sales figures cross-gen. How much did the Sony-counterpart of the GBA sell?

>PSP does great because it had an incredibly extensive list of games
>PSV does absolutely horribly because it has no fucking lineups and zero support, cost Sony incredible amounts of money
>Nintendo also dominates the handheld market now, just like it always has
>"Hey guys let's do a 3rd PSP!"

I call bullshit. Unless they have a very good list of games lined up, I highly doubt this. PSV did atrocious.

>>378303645
this, companies always copy each other and consumers choose which one is the better one.

If Sony learn from its mistakes, or at least from the main ones, it could easily crash Nintendo table since its filled with huge glaring flaws. Obviously switchildren won't admit that their overpriced no game toy is selling for no good reason, exactly like the ps4 initially sold a fuckton for no good reason.

>>378303586
I don't believe the PSP had a standardized video output. How would the PSP and the TV communicate?

>>378303321
except the wii u sold like hotcakes at launch, it only flopped a few months later.

>>378303819
>vitard claiming other consoles have no games

o i am laffin

>>378303498
The PS4 managed just fine.

>>378303819
Have you ever considered that erasing those mistakes would lead to a more difficult architecture, higher hardware prices and so on?

>>378303827
they added TV video out to the PSP with the 2000 model line I think

>Actually wanting to purchase another Sony Handheld after the Vita
Can't wait to buy it and have sony drop it after a few months.

With a PSP component cable. Also PSP Go can be docked with the component cable connected at the back.

>>378303321
Sounds plausible enough for me to believe it.
At least in hindsight it seems pretty dumb to expect wiiu numbers when wiiu was a huge marketing flop. The switch had a pretty good marketing campaign plus they had zelda as a launch title.

>>378303920
PS4 didn't sell 13 million units in 3 months though.

>>378301414
>muh power
Every single time Sony has made a portable console to compete with Nintendo's one which is much more powerful, they've flopped because of no games. More specifically, system sellers.
If this thing is real, then they have to have a game for it like Nintendo had Breath of the Wild and MK8D for the Switch. It impressed people because you could play what was considered a home console open world game wherever you want and play a home console Mario Kart wherever you want with friends. Sony need to replicate that and if they don't, this will be their last attempt at a portable console.

While video can be outputted out on normal PSPs, only with PSP Go that you can use a DS3 to make playing on TV worthwhile.

>>378304104
Vita 2 will have Knack 3 as a launch title screencap this

>>378304208
Whoa dude. Sick!

>>378303918
Maybe, you know, that was one of the mistakes I was talking about? But keep trying so hard, you little switchild.

>>378303932
No, since the architecture and the hardware of the vita wasn't a mistake at all and devs did say that they were absolutely fine with working on that kind of architecture. I'm talking about things like getting completely rid of those useless vita gimmicks which would lower the cost, and that's just an example.

>>378304231

>>378303893
Look at the chart right there, anon. The Switch was selling 4 times the WiiU after week 6, and only matched sales some time around weeks 4-5. They made units on par with the WiiU's sales in those weeks and they been blowing past that. This is all Japan, though, but they're the only concrete numbers we have.

>>378304026
It's selling higher than the 3DS did too. Even if we assume they shot for a 3DS-like early sales life and not a WiiU, it was still 2 times more than that eventually. Golden week fucks up things here, however. Golden Week is a buying holiday and so stock gets sapped up and then it's either just gone or people aren't buying as much afterward. Sales shot up and then plummeted out of tune with the rest of the curves due to this. The recent post Golden Week sales aren't on that chart. Sales went up to about 74k for week 9, then dropped to about 24k for the last week or so. This, interestingly, brings it in range of the 3DS, but we'll need a few more weeks to see how sales normalize again.

>>378304301
>he thinks a sony handheld will EVER be relevant again without monster hunter

>>378304135
Zelda and the other games are just ports so thats not the reason. You could just get a Wii U get all the games the Switch has and more.

>>378304598
i do

>>378304598
What a badass. Still 60% drop

>>378304358
It's trivial for a chinese manufacturer to tool up more production lines and shit out more products. How do you think they keep up with demand for iphones, PS4's, etc?
Plus the fact that when they do that the overheads for each unit go down, so it would actually save nintendo money to manufacturer higher volumes.

It's just artificial scarcity as they always do. I can understand a lack of units immideately at launch, but its months later and nintendo are still manufacturing below demand to create fake buzz and free publicity through "Nintendo Switch sold out everywhere ZOMG" headlines

>>378304456
ALL handhelds have had a drop because of smartphones.

>>378304782
Yeah no shit. 3DS and Vita both.

>>378303415
No, it hasn't. It's passed the Wii U in Japan, and in the USA it sold as much in 2 months as the Wii U did in 6 months.

>>378304358
> publicity through "Nintendo Switch sold out everywhere ZOMG" headlines
Pretty much. Nintenbros can believe that it's not something atificial or deliberate, but it's a fact that's the effect the scarcity is creating.

>>378304757
>How do you think they keep up with demand for iphones, PS4's, etc?
Because they expect those to be selling a lot. And the PS4 sales have accumulated, they weren't breaking records on a weekly/monthly basis. It's non-trivial to open up more production lines on a new product and have everything not go to shit communication or quality-wise with two months, especially if you weren't expecting it to.

Perhaps more importantly, Nintendo fucking hates having shit lying around. Sony and Apple are willing to over supply, while Nintendo doesn't.

Artificial scarcity is a meme. Businesses want money, not buzz. They only want buzz if it leads to money. You can't under produce and get more money than just meeting demand. Sure, someone who wasn't already interested might go "huh, it's sold out, wonder why?" and maybe check it out. Then they'll remember the reasons they weren't interested in it to begin with and just go on with their lives.

>>378305039

not that it'll ever happen. There's no way they're going for another handheld after the vita and so soon after the switch release.

>>378305039
If it was Nintendo creating artificial scarcity like amiibo, why are they doing it? People want them right now, so they're only losing out on money if the hype dies down soon. I thought they would want to create more units in order to sell more units at its peak like in the Wii boom period right?

>>378305087
>It's non-trivial to open up more production lines on a new product and have everything not go to shit communication or quality-wise with two months, especially if you weren't expecting it to.
The whole fucking reason companies use chinese manufacturing and don't set up their own production lines is because companies like foxconn can scale their production lines in a matter of days. Yeah it takes time and is expensive to tool up a brand new production line, but after the first one is worked out it's literally trivial for them to set up more, and then dismantle them when the sales subside.

>Perhaps more importantly, Nintendo fucking hates having shit lying around
It's a good job nintendo never has to store them then. Those switches are already sold to retailers before they're even off the production line and it's their responsibility for storing them. You don't think retailers are begging nintendo to ship them more units while demand is high?

>Artificial scarcity is a meme. Businesses want money, not buzz. They only want buzz if it leads to money.
Buzz does lead to money. If there is consistent high demand for a product then people think it's good, and more people will want one. They can create this high demand artificially by limiting supply, and they're not going to lose any sales from it. If you wanted to buy a switch but they were sold out would you then say "fuck it, I'm not getting one now!"? of course not. You would just wait.

I'll be interested in seeing what Sony brings to the table. what a great time to be a video game fan!

It fucking blows as well, the hardware on Vita is top-tier. Nope, left to rot as per fucking usual.

Sony seriously need to up their game. Nintendo did.
Handhelds actually have a chance of being the future of gaming. Consoles are slowly dying.
Throw a GSM in there and let people make phone calls and you've fucking won handheld gaming.
Just be sure to allow calls to come through transparently instead of interrupting the game to notify you.

It wouldn´t be a vita, but a PS4 portable.

>>378307434
Phone hybrid would be neat. I'd buy it.
But as I said in >>378306274, the only serious thing after the list, if they half-ass the phone integration, it will piss people off enough they won't buy it.

It needs to be useful but also as transparent as it can get. If it fucks with you in the middle of a boss battle, hell naw.
Being able to pause at the proper moment vs being paused in the middle of making decisions would be the difference of relief and rage.

>>378307573
And yeah, as you say, people change phones fairly regularly.
They need to make it a snap-in module that can be replaced easily for newer specs / speeds as and when they come out.
It's so easy to make a phone-as-a-chip, but for some reason nobody has thought, "hey, let's MARKET that as a feature!"

>>378302710

>>378307242
Gamefreak doesn't own Pokemon, you can have them though, they are shit as a development studio.

Yeah, that's retarded. It's been argued to death and retards always keep spouting the same bullshit.

>>378307236
You can't just post a bunch of hardware numbers without context. The Switch has managed to sell an extra 10k per week despite selling a much smaller initial total compared to the likes of the 3DS and even the Wii U (which flopped badly in Japan,) but it has already had two of it's biggest games released in the first two months of it's life (Zelda, Mario Kart.)

You also have to take into account that the Switch is literally two consoles in one for Nintendo but the sales of the Switch don't come close to the 3DS and Wii U. The Switch is doing good but when you look at the big picture it isn't quite doing that well - Nintendo are OBVIOUSLY holding back stock as well past sell in time-frame show that they could ship more hardware than they even are now 5 year later so there is no argument there either.

>>378308007
>The Switch is doing good but when you look at the big picture it isn't quite doing that well
lol. Wait until you see the preorder numbers for MonHunXX today. You idiotic kids are so fucking stupid, I swear to god.

>>378307573
The fact that the cellphone industry managed to pull off this culture of constantly changing phones amazes me.

There is literally no reason to change phones constantly, the most popular mobile garbage games aren't the ones with the most intensive graphics but the ones who manage to goad the most idiots into spending all their life savings on them like a virtual slot machine for retards.

Also Apple and Samsung being industry leaders when their shit is quantifiably worse and more expensive than pretty much all competition.

>>378308360
Nintendo is following suit. How many 3DSes an average guy on /v/ has?

>>378308360
They're pulling the old MO like back when Microsoft is selling Windows. Android and iOS gets more and more bloated with each release, so you need more powerful phones every year. Phone maker also drop support for older phones faster than PC OEMs drop support for older products. It's going to be like this until phone chips power growth slows down like desktop chips.

MCDONALDS!!

>>378308747
zomg announced it today on their twitter, so.

>>378308007
The Switch is supply constrained, you can look at the last two weeks and it went up showing that Demand is still high, we really can't tell just yet how high demand is, I don't think it's demand is like the Wii but Gamestop keeps saying it is, there are still stores in Japan that run lotteries so that all customers get a chance just to secure the option to purchase a Switch.

The Switch has already surpassed the WiiU's sales trajectory and it has yet to move into it's first holiday season.

>>378308396
Of course it's going to happen, it's going to come out, sell dick all, be a financial failure for Sony but it will be enough to keep Nip titles off the Switch ensuring that the Switch doesn't reach it's full potential, and for Sony that's a good thing, Switch's full potential would be becoming Japans defacto platform which would be a major blow to Sony.

It must be because it's so far from release, I'm surprised that the PS4 version is outpacing the 3ds version, man I wish they'd announce that Switch version, the best of both worlds version.

>>378300652

It's because there's a choice of platform. Historically people will favor Playstation when there's a choice.

It shouldn't be that surprising, I bet players are waiting for the Switch version.

I'll take either or. Whichever does it first. The problem with the Switch is that I don't think it's likely to get a Miku game because it is a Nintendo console. The 3DS was a fluke.

>>378300652
>HOLY SHIT SONY WON

What? The abandonware race? Yeah they sure showed Nintendo with the PSP, the Vita and PSVR.

>>378309358
The imminent success of the Switch in Japan means that there was a chance to see a move of these companies to the Switch, and for their fans to move over with them, a PSP3 ensures that this can not happen at all because no matter how poorly Sony support the PSP3 and no matter how badly it will fail these developers will just support it anyway, their fans will buy the system that they support and they will all support it, it's not like this couldn't work on the Switch, a better platform.

>>378300652

It never sold gangbusters, ever. And it's selling less now because Switch exists.

>>378309964
>Vita still selling like gangbusters in nipland
It slowed down after the Switch was released. I haven't kept up with sales numbers after that, so it could be temporary.

>>378309964
>gangbusters

>>378300652
dammit i'd be stoked on a new sony portable but the ps4 was so much worse than the ps3 in terms of the hardware (even the batteries in the controllers are worse) that i'd be worried they'd put out something shit, especially compared to vita which is so great.

>>378300652
it's DoA unless they use sd cards like every other sane company

>>378302172
You just had to be there

>>378309964
Because Vita is now a Minecraft machine in Japan (which Sony publishes to great success) while Sony already started making this PSP3 in 2015, which was about the time the last first party game came out (Freedom Wars, Oreshika, etc.)

>>378302021

If it's backwards compatible with Vita I might get one. I skipped vita due to monetary restraints, but I was very interested in owning it alongside my 3DS for quite a while. If its worth my money I might just pick one up.

I haven't bought a Sony platform since PS2. To be quite honest I used to love dual owning Sony/Nintendo but I'm so sick of Nintendo ruining their IP's and shoving out motion control shit as if its some "norm" that I think I'm done with them.

>mfw i might become a full on sonybro because of Nintendo themselves.

Well, at least it matches how Sony treats their movies.

It got good games from third party devs, especially Japanese. I dunno why would anyone get a PS console for 1st party games. I got it for Yakuza, VC (at the time it was an exclusive), Demon's Souls, Atelier, Disgaea and so on

>>378311927

I really doubt they'd announce PS5. Maybe next year. PSP3 won't happen either. We've been getting these PSP3 rumours for 2 years now and nothing has come out of it. No reliable sources either. Just websites talking out of their ass how it might happen. Dunno about MH.

If this thing fails will Sony abandon handhelds? Or will they keep going so long as Nintendo is making them?

>>378315003
They will go on as long as their gaming business post profits.

>fuck up Vita owners

Yeah, no thanks. I've been screwed by Sony too much recently.

How can any Sony fanboys defend them right now?

>>378315003
As long as it brings them some money they'll keep doing it, I guess. Vita has been doing quite well in Japan even after Sony abandoned it.

>>378314941
And why do you think they wouldn't support the next sony handheld aswell?

>>378315069
>fuck up Vita owners
How? Because they abandoned it? That was a dick move, but I mainly got it for Japanese games like with most PS consoles. Western games don't really interest me.
PSTV was a fuck up. There's no defending that. PS4 and games are kinda arguable. If you like multiplatforms and a few Jap games here and there it was ok, but yeah it only picked up steam as of this year. Kinda similar to PS3. PSVR is shit as well. I'd say it's a mixed bag overall. If you're not interested in Japanese 3rd party games then it's an absolute shitshow though.

>>378305472
PSP was more powerful than ps1 but less powerful than Ps2.

Vita was more powerful than PS2 but less powerful than PS3

It follows that Sony's next handheld will be more powerful than PS3 but less powerful than ps4. Demon's Souls, Infamous and Uncharted Ports confirmed!

>>378315365
>the god awful proprietary memory.
Oh yeah, forgot about that. I just got a 16gb card for 15 pounds. I think it was on sale or something. All of my Vita games are digital as well. I just back them up on PC because there's no way all my games would fit on that card. The folder is 100gb+ I also hate how you can't just change your PSN accounts on the fly. If they do make a PSP3, hopefully they'll come to their senses and don't fuck it up even more.

Here's what is play on the ps4 if I had one
>Bloodborne
>Uncharted 2 hd, MAYBE
>God of war 3 hd, probably
Literally nothing else. Literally.

>>378315503
>hopefully they'll come to their senses and don't fuck it up even more
I was one of the morons thinking with the PS TV Sony had changed their way and recommended friends to pick them up to play Vita games on their TV.. only for many Vita games not to work on the TV.

If Sony/AMD can pack in an APU into a mobile form factor it'd be a game changer. I'd happily play games at 720p & dialled back settings if i can play it on the go.

>>378315482
>what is vita account system
True. I already complained about this.
>what is memory card prices, not to mention you NEEDED to have one to even play games you bought. And it wasn't bundled
That's true as well, but all the Vitas came with 4gb memory cards. So if you bought physical games then it wasn't really a problem. Still a dick move from Sony.
>UI and useless features
Dunno. That's arguable. Don't have any problems with UI and I think it's alright. Near or whatever that app was called was useless though.
>what is dropped support about 2 years in at best
True. They just didn't give a fuck, especially after they've released the PS4. They treated the Vita like a PS4 accessory.

>>378315653
At least there's Henkaku now. Though you still won't be able to play newer games that require 3.60fw+

>>378315656
You're already playing games at dialed back settings on your PS4. You won't have trouble adjusting.

All in all, Sony is a shit company, but I still like their consoles mainly because of the Japanese devs support. If they all moved to, let's say Switch and didn't come back, I'd move as well.

They're not even trying now since PS4 is doing really well. PS+ became absolute shit. I remember them giving away actual games for PS3 and a few ok games for Vita. Now it's all indie trash. They don't even really care about securing exclusives anymore. It's all timed/DLC bullshit that I don't even understand sometimes.
>Game announced as an exclusive
>Month later it's said that it's a timed exclusive
>"Play first on PS4" :^) and all the other bullshit

>>378315971
I still don't see any problems with the UI, swiping the screen or the rear touchpad. They lied about being able to play games with 3G anywhere though.

Doubt they've won. They certainly prevented Nintendo from having a complete monopoly of the handheld market, but Nintendo has never really lost in a handheld war. Even when they fucked up their 3DS launch and everyone here was claiming it would loae to Vita, they managed to come put on top. Hell they didn't even have to try all that hard with Switch, just a good marketing campaign and the draw of console games on a handheld.

Sony's got the console market, Nintendo has handhelds. It's always been this way

>>378315656
I feel like a PS4itch might happen, but ONLY if it plays PS4 games natively with no adjustments, so Sony can just offer the existing PS4 library digitally.

Of course, AMD's tech won't be small enough to do that for several years yet.

Granted, it'd probably sell if they did since Sony fanboys will eat up anything they shit out. I mean, the PS4 sold like crazy despite not having a single game for 2 years.

P5 wouldn't be able to run on Vita anyway, despite the Vita being closer to a mobile PS3 as opposed to a mobile PS2. It can remote play P5 though.
I mean, don't get me wrong but P4 was a PS2 game, and if you compare P4G to P3P, P3P was simplified so that it could be played on PSP, while P4G was basically P4 on Vita.
So considering the tech leap required to make P4G happen, P5 Crimson on PSP3 is a no brainer.
