Comment on Sony’s PlayStation Portal gives a confusing first impression

What are you buying for $300? Steam deck is about as cheap as you can get and that’s for $360. It’s also heavier, smaller screen, has a lower quality screen, and will run out of battery quicker.

So if you don’t do pc gaming, why on earth would you want to spend closer to double the price?

You know why you think it’s a stupid product? You either live alone or you still live with mom and dad and have a ps5 in your bedroom. This product isn’t for you, and you’re an idiot for thinking if it’s not something little ol you would want, than no one else must have a use for it, either.

This feels like a too much emotion for the subject matter.

  Ironically, it’d make more sense if you lived with mom and dad, you play ps5 while they watch whatever they watch all in the same room

Critical fail. A switch is $300 and can be played on the couch. Also nice projection about living with mom and dad, it cracks me up when people accuse strangers on the internet of things. Proud homeowner of 6 years here, dipshit

  Ah. So you don’t deny you live alone. Just deny living with mom and dad. My point still stands then .

    You realize this is a good product if you live with your parents? You don’t need to hog the TV. Living alone and buying this bullshit, now that’s a stupid decision.

    That depends on if the ps5 is in your bedroom and not the family room. My kids system is just in his room, so he’d have little use for this.

Oh I don’t know maybe you want to actually game portable and not just enjoy fake portability?

  Maybe you just want to play your ps5 games next to your spouse while they watch TV.

    That can be done easily and cheaply, with a smartphone and a telescopic controller for example.

    So a smaller screen and to get a good controller that holds a phone, they’re $100, or you can get a crap controller for $50 or less.
    
    Then are you going to be using you current phone that will have your gaming screwed up by calls and text messages? Or your old phone that you have to leave plugged in to use because the battery is shot? Also, how are you enjoying your audio lag because your phone doesn’t have a headphone jack?
