A new Vita is coming? WOW!
What's with these ps5 pro rumors? what would a ps5 pro offer? 8k isn't becoming prolific like 4k was before the ps4 pro came out, and giving developers another sku to target is a headache that causes problems. we've seen this with the series s and series x. even though series x should be outperforming the ps5 by a tiny bit, developing for both often results in games that have lower framerates and or frame pacing issues more prevalent.
I had/have a Vita. It didn't feel loved, it felt like Sony neglected it. A few decent games and many ended up being 2.5 D.
Maybe with better tech these days it'll be better supported. It was a huge disappointment IME.
It's most likely a screen with buttons for streaming games from your home PS5, not an actual gaming handheld. Think Wii U screen-controller. Sony has absolutely no way of supporting a dedicated gaming handheld right now.
