It's been posted and speculated on a million times already on this board.
And the PSVita/Vita TV already basically does this so it's not really a new idea.
If you want to be technical about it, the portable Turbo Express played the exact same games (Hu Cards format) as the Turbo Grafx 16 (PC Engine in Japan) 25 years ago. |
Partially true but the difference is that with Vita and Vita tv you are only getting the handheld games. But it's not like ps4 games can be used on vita. What sony is doing basically what Nintendo did with gameboy advance and the gamecube. Having all console games and handheld games available on either system would be a new concept.

I realize there are lots of young 'uns on this board that don't really know about game history prior to 2000 in many cases but
Otherwise known as the TurboGrafx 16 in the US, ran the exact same games and they ran on a card format. You could take a PC Engine console game like Street Fighter II and play it on the portable PC Engine GT (portable).
Fun fact: NEC and Nintendo were quite close, Nintendo actually considered making the PC Engine chipset their successor to the Famicom/NES at one point before nixing the idea and opting to build the SNES from scratch.
