So a glorified, proprietary format, AliExpress tablet.

Maybe they should have asked Nintendo how it worked out for their WiiU console

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Sony has twice tested the waters in portable gaming, with the unsuccessful but fondly remembered PSP and Vita.

Third time lucky is the hope with PlayStation Portal, a handheld gaming device that — there’s no getting around it — is more or less a supercharged version of Nintendo’s endearingly confusing Wii U.

And while for some this use case may not hit, don’t underestimate the number of households where kids or parents dominate the TV.

At $200, it’s a bit expensive for an accessory, but if it performs as they describe it in their own (doubtless totally objective) hands-on report, it might be a great option for a fair amount of people to have available.

Both feature “custom-designed planar magnetic drivers for an audiophile-level listening experience normally found in premium headphones for professional sound engineers.” Sony makes a lot of cans, so they know of what they speak.

Each comes with a new “PlayStation Link” USB dongle that can quickly switch between associated devices: currently these two pairs plus the Portal use this connection method.
