re: The Supreme Playstation 4 thread

So, I'll post whatever PS4 details come out of the Sony Japan conference.

Sony just announced a PS Vita Slim. 20% thinner and slimmer. 1GB onboard memory. 1 more hour of battery life.

The translator is horrible for this.

Another one just stepped in. He's doing much better than the previous one. They're using pretty basic language, so I get the gist of what's going without em.

For real? In the US soon? Damn glad I waited to get one then.

VITA TV Announced

Sony announced at its conference today a new system called the Vita TV. The device will allow for PS4 remote play and has a slot for physical Vita games. It is a 6cm x 10cm in size device that connects to your TV, and as Andrew House showed on stage it can fit inside your jacket pocket.

Video contents from the PS Store can be accessed through the device. It is compatible with Hulu and Nico Nico, as well as PS Vita, PSP and first generation PlayStation archives.

It will first be released in Japan November 14th, 2013 for 9954 yen. The value pack at 14,994 will include a PS3 controller and an 8GB Vita memory card. The international release date was not announced at this time.

It's a console. Vita console for your home and you use the dualshock 3 to play the games and operate it. Only in Japan for now, and it's $100.

Sony points out that the device will play, at launch, about 1,300 games. That’s because it can play all of the PSP and PSone games that are currently available to download via the PlayStation Network digital games service, plus many of the games that have been released so far for the PlayStation Vita platform.

Sony is positioning Vita TV as a great device for video streaming; at the Tokyo media briefing it stressed that you would be able to use the device to stream video content a wide variety of services.

Now this part is really the only part that interests me and is cool:

Additionally, a “future system update” will allow you to use Vita TV to stream PlayStation 4 games — if you have a PlayStation 4 console in another room of your house, you will be able to hook a PS Vita TV up to another television in a different room and play the PlayStation 4 on that television, via streaming.

That's actually a seller for me, will buy when available. I keep my PS3/4 in the living room, I have no access to apps or streaming or any of that in my bedroom, I like to watch movies or shows in there and fall asleep for example.

I can now spend $100 bucks and basically have a 2nd PS4 in my bedroom with access to streaming all of the apps and everything else and can also play my PS4 and Vita games on it. Can't sleep? Fire it up and play a quick game or mission. No more having to transport a box around the house.

So this thing plays vita, psp, and ps1 games? also it can play ps4 if you have one int he house through i'm guessing the wifi?

Interesting. I wouldn't use it personally, but it seems like a nice add on for Sony. A bit pricey though.

It's definitely a device intended for the Japanese market. Unsure if it'll make it over.


They also announced a brand new Yakuza game as a launch title, announced a new Guilty Gear, Showed some awesome gameplay for Deep Down, a new game game called Natural Doctrine, and announced a new IP called Lily Bergamo. With the late release date, PS4 will have a lot of games available for launch (including inFamous!).
