Yes, something like that, but in home console. Maybe it has twice the memory and has an interesting discount, too.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Hopefully a digital-only console will be released from one of the big three even before this generation is over.

I always thought the PSP Go was dumb, how it prevented you from being able to play physical games.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Do you physical only people realize used games are the reason for day 1 dlc? Publishers need a way to get revenue from people that buy the day 2 used copies for $55 instead of new for $60.

 

I'm a Sony person but I actually support what MS tried to do. Physical games need to die.

The problem was the shitty WiFi card, and the ridiculously small storage, otherwise it was better than the regular PSP (better load times).

I keep all my consoles. I have over 20 and would hate to be digital only. Makes me sad even thinking about it.:( I have plenty downloaded games but just prefer looking at my library of games and grabbing one off the shelf. I consider myself a collector and I don't even like how most games don't even come with a physical manual.

No you will always have the option to buy digital or phisical form i don't think anybody want to make their consoles flop just like PSPGO

I will admit that I have several modded consoles like my wii which has a 2tb hdd and I have tons of games but I was never a fan of that console so I don't collect for it. If they make two skus this or next Gen will be fine but it's not for me.
