Right now the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite are completely unchecked in the handheld gaming console market, and running away in terms of sales, with more than 70 million consoles sold.
Despite the commercial failure of Sony's last foray into the realm of handheld consoles, with the PS Vita nowhere near matching the popularity of the original PlayStation Portable, and Sony big wigs actively pouring cold water on the possibility of a PS Vita 2, there has remained whispers that Sony is in fact currently engaged in a deep-cover Skunk Works -style operation to produce a new handheld gaming console.
The core motive behind these whispers? Sony's mastery over 5G networking technology, which it now utilises in many aspects of its business , ranging from movie cameras to mobile phones. The theory goes that Sony is now perfectly positioned to release a new handheld gaming device the like of which the world has never seen — one that is made feasible by 5G technology.
The PSP 5G tantalising glimpsed in the wisps of rumor smoke is a cloud-based game streaming console that uses WiFi and 5G to actively stream games on the fly, either from a gamer's game library or from a Netflix-for-games service like PlayStation Now. There would be no need for cartridge slot or physical games to be produced at all, and gamers would be able to pick up the system cheaper as they would not be buying proprietary games for the system.
This sort of system does, on paper make sense, too. Sony already has an entire gaming ecosystem already built, it already has a massive library of games including retro games from past home and handheld consoles , has a deep mastery of 5G technology, and even still dabbles in the smartphone market, which involves producing a handheld device with 5G modem and screen.
Sony has both the knowledge and manufacturing capabilities already to hand to make a PSP 5G a reality. And considering the system would, actually, be really just a dumb terminal, the cost of the system would no doubt be notably lower than the silicon stuffed PS Vita. Right now, though, nothing is confirmed.
