Who the hell would buy this handheld? after how they treated the Vita...



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Well what you described is pretty much the Vita TV. So I think he's got reason to be quite confident about that prediction considering what happened to the Vita TV.

PSTV wasn't a handheld. So what you're saying is: If it's a handheld like the Vita it stands a chance but if it's a handheld like the Vita AND can connect to your TV it will fail ... Let me just run that passed myself again, 'If it's a handheld like the Vita it stands a chance but if it's a handheld like the Vita AND can connect to your TV it will fail'. Nope ... I'm confused.

If true then id like Sony to try a little harder this time.

It wasn't debunked, but it was just confirmed as not really being evidence. The Wifi Chip was filed by Sony Interactive Entertainment I believe so it's something to do with gaming, but there's no real evidence to assume it's for a new handheld. The module number "J20H091" is NOT the number used in the Vita as this article and several people have claimed.


Vita Number - J20H056

Ps4 Number - J20H071

This Number - J20H091

SO there is no evidence of this having anything to do with the PSVita.

Also are we sure that the 2 wifi units aren't the slim+Neo. 

Anyway as an initial Vita supporter I will say there is little point in sony producing another dedicated handheld and with the arrival of the NX, sonys niche of the high end gaming device is out the window. Unless this is the playstation phone, they'd be better off not bothering. Also I see no chance of sony taking their development resources away from Playstation 4 & VR.

Basically sounds like much ado about nothing. The modular numbers aren't even the same rendering the whole theory bunk.

Would not be too terribly surprising if true - the homeland loves their handhelds, even if the rest of the world does not.



As much as I adore my Vita the idea of Sony going with another dedicated handheld in 2017 makes no sense.



Hope it's not true. I'd prefer Sony focus fully on the PS4.



Sony should stick to consoles and not a money sink like the Vita.



I would deff buy a new vita model with R2/L2 buttons or a new more powerfull Playstation handheld.
Personally i would find that news more exciting then anything they announce for PS4 lol
