Why do people keep saying this

[KristaSuneku]

But the portal requires you to own a PS5 so in theory you would be spending more then just buying a steamdeck

[holderofallknowledge]

The best argument would be comparing it to your smartphone with remote play and something like a Backbone One.

[kcatman]

lmao bro almost choked saying "its worth the price".

[imkjet]

Blink twice if Sony executives are holding you at gun point

[NachtBogen]

I feel like the pricing argument goes out the window when you wanna spend $200 to play Spiderman in the room next to where your console is lol

[svcross-do]

Stop trying to justify your purchase. Yeah, you think it is for you. It's not for most people. Leave it a that.

Steam deck =500. portal = 200 + ps5 = 700, steam deck is cheaper

[AuriWolf]

Dude you're the one that keeps telling everyone the steam deck sucks and the portal is better if you're going to pull this argument now then at least admit you're biased

[tokyohamster]

I think people want a psvita 2 and this feels like a slap in the face.

[georgeknowseverything]

i can buy a 100 dollar phone, plus 80 dollars for a gamepad, and bam, i can play whatever cloud service i want. basically everyone has a phone. i will keep saying the portal is useless, yes it has cool features, like the PS5 controller have, but still useless

[duif九]

It's actually cheaper to buy a steam deck though if you don't have a PS5

[caringnickel]

I think to forget one thing, you need the 500$ console too

[mchonkler]

Don't ask questions, just consume product and get excited about next product.

[SquigglyTheAsianPotato]

I remember back when the vita supported remote play... and look how well sony treated that

[shoestringsev]

TBF the PS Portable should just be a phone app and possible a phone controller like from Razer.

[Dolphindan]

Hey, if someone can afford to pay for a niche product like this then they can enjoy it. I just think for most people it's not gonna be worth it especially considering the quality of the ps portal

[ShrtCrct]

Well no because you could buy something like a backbone or even just a ps5 controller then remote play from your phone.

The issue isn't that it doesn't have a purpose, the issue is that there's better alternatives

[johnnygadget]

It's difficult to justify nonsense. The portal wont even work at a local cafe or hotel if it requires the Wi fi acceptance which the Portal can't do without a browser. Not to mention the lack of bluetooth and no compatibility with PS4. Encouraging people to spend $200 for a device that your phone or tablet can do better, is an act of lunacy.

[PCJesus]

The only reason i think the portal makes no sense is because you could just buy the backbone or kishi and just use your phone

[mowmou]

I think your channel is dying (no offense)
