Should Sony make a PS4 portable? And would you buy it?

Can a portable with the power of the PS4 even be made? At least an affordable one that is. And I wonder if people would double dip with this device, or sales just switch from a PS4 to this device.

I dunno if I would buy this device myself. It would depend on the library of the system.

Yes, by 2020, 600GF-1 TFLOP (undocked) and 2 TFLOP (docked) should be doable (or close enough). 

The problem for Sony is they don't have any magical monopoly on mobile chips and they don't make any of these chips themselves. They'd likely have to use PowerVR (the same supplier for the Vita), but Nvidia could give Nintendo a similar or better chip, and thus Sony's tech advantage goes down the toilet fairly easily. 

Then the question becomes would Sony be willing to put their 100% into such a device while also working on Playstation 5/PSVR. My guess is no, so Nintendo would beat them fairly easily as we know they will put their 100% into the Switch. 

By the time the PS5 comes around, I imagine that'll be even more demanding hardware, which goes back to the question, will that iteration be able to be condensed into a portable device?
