What will it do, make the consoles laugh themselves to death?

I'd buy it.... :>

*runs away*

if they made some type of cover that adds those without covering the screen then yes that is an good idea

xperia play >>>> whatever kind of joke that is

If they really wanted to make Smartphones kill the handheld market, and have Sony score the win, Sony needs to ensure that PSOne classics and other back-cat games make it on other Android devices through a Playstation Store, and maybe some sort of controller scheme like on the Xperia Play.

That way, you get the best of all worlds. All the great smartphone software, better controls, and a lot of great games. Then there is nothing that Nintendo can really do other than join the market somehow.

ROFL @ this and the comments, you guys made my day!!!

I get the joke.

For those who are humor impaired -- realize the lack of controls limits what types of games an iDevice can play. (Just as the presence of motion controls and the lack of a standard 16-button controller limits Wii development).

Also, for what it is worth, remember that some people actually have iPhones for business use.  So not everyone is a game device in waiting.

i lawled :P

the ipad has something like this but the ipad also has a bigger screen so that is ok but this? WTF?

i shall quote from Men in Tights:

Robin Hood: Blinkin! What are you doing?
Blinkin: Guessing. I guess there is something on my screen.
