This is so nice, it’s actually HIGHLY enhanced the portal for me, since you can’t take advantage of game streaming off the service when you are remote playing, since its specifically blocked - this makes the premium membership feel more worth it now
I have a PlayStation portal and I'm not that pleased with it, but let's give it more credit than that. Lol a Wii u gamepad couldn't be moved more than a couple feet from the console. At least you can use this anywhere there's a good wifi connection
@@pixelsandwich4104 I agree with the reach of the wii u pad being weak, but it did do a lot. Having a stronger reach in comparison isn't a strong enough case to be better than the wii u. At least, to me anyway.
Sorry, but the only social media I trust is X. Even X over every news channel. All I think is that every news channel lures people into believing a specific channel and hate other channels. Lots of lies because you hear it this or that way to where you wonder, “What news channel is telling the 💯% truth. Benny Johnson who streams legit news here on YT and on X is who I trust more than any tv news channel. Think about SpongeBob SquarePants for a sec on the newspaper episode where SpongeBob makes stories that are lies where newspapers get sold more. That would be if you have ever seen that. I only trust a couple of individuals on YT and X for legit news whether it’s good or bad news. The truth is what matters most.
@@cdawg4574Well see my thing about x or Twitter is you can curate it so that you only see the type of stuff you're interested in and following. So I never really understand when people say they're exposed to all this negative stuff they don't want to be exposed to. But at the same time I could understand what they're saying and I get it. But yeah my page is set up so I only see the type of political stuff and the type of interest that I'm interested in. I have friends with opposite political views than me and their page is set up so they only see their type of interest. Yes there's always some descending voices and some jerk offs but you can block them pretty easy. I think The algorithm for x in choosing the type of interest it thinks you would like works pretty damn good. Does for me anyways I don't know
crazy how the video is about the portal but most of the comment section is talking about twitter and bluesky pretty funny how ppl refuse to acknowledge the fact that a lot of people actually find use in this product
Budd... I live in Mexico, we're literally neighbors of the American, and we still get ignored and don't get many of the PS benefits that USA gets... so welcome to my world XD
To be fair though... PS Plus deluxe is a bit of a better deal than premium if you ask me. Instead of streaming PS3 games we get access to every PS3 era game that got a remake or remaster and we get to play it natively... Unitl they get rid of it like Kingdoms of Amalur... 😢... I take it back...
An actual handheld that can play native games would be much better than this. It wouldn’t be able to use disks but at least your device wouldn’t be a fancy brick without internet
Yo beatemups i’ve been following you for sometime now and I finally got a Nintendo switch this Saturday and I gotta say you’ve been promoting this machine so nice but not nice enough I was like super surprised over how nice it is I was playing Mario kart with my friend on the local bar it was awesome thank you so much for your videos keep it up🤘😎
This is how it should have been on day one. Also they should add being able to play digital purchased games with the ability to save it directly on the Portal.
ok the rubix cube is relatable though, whe i had dial up internet as a kid i would keep a book with me to read while waiting for each website to load 😂
Question: since it's all cloud streaming with all the eventual problems it carries on as default, do you also have limited play sessions there too? And ofc waiting in line to access any game?
I would get one if someone hacked it and allowed you to stream from your pc. You can do this now on even a phone, but this thing would be a much better experience.
Pump the breaks wood, don't delete your account. If you purchased games digital only you can restore those on a new account. I went through that process and it sucked.
@sushikitties wow. So dumb.... wood isn't saying what he really feels because he doesn't want to alienate viewers be ause he's a money hungry little gremlin. Everyone switching to blue sky has to same MO. If you don't know it, you are dumb.
The problem is it can only play like some PS4 games and barely any PS5 ones. This whole situation makes the Portal still feel useless tbh… Especially since Xbox just started cloud streaming owned games today. Anyway, thanks for the vid!
@@chrisj320ac3i have to say I use my PlayStation Portal far more than my steam deck with Chiaki. The Portal is pick up and play straight away. The dual sense form factor, features and lightness is the best feeling hand-held I've ever had. Something people overlook when talking about the bulkiness, and weight of the steam deck but which is an essential factor for a handheld. The Portal is also much cheaper. Don't get me wrong the power and performance of the steam deck is fantastic, but your statement is just untrue. The Portal is an great device for what it does and that's the reason it's selling so well, even though it's not for you.
@@Almonteobservatory1987 It's letting you stream OWNED games ie any xbox game not just the ones listed when you sign on. The whole thing is on beta r/n though with only 50 games supported (half of them are previously playable so...). Xbox is basicaly trying to implament a local streaming solution like Playstation did all those years ago, that's all. Hey, I'm a big xbox fan, but even I'll admit Sony kind of has it in the bag (some how) when it comes to streaming games. Which is strange, as Microsoft has had HUGE Azure PC streaming servers for DECADES I'd think it should be cheap and easy to figure this one out.
Native Play is what makes a portable an actual handheld. Cloud is just Remote play with less consumer control. The portal is in the same position as it was when it launched. Putting the hardware in PS's hands while requiring a paid Subscription is worse than owning the PS5 and streaming your own games.
i really like that they did that now but honestly for maybe 150-200 price units more they could've made it an actual handheld but we all forget that remote play is also possible via smartphones or tablets via the ps app that alone makes the portal completely redundant for me
For real, I mean. For that amount, you can buy a Nintendo switch lite. And while it's not amazing, you can still play games without internet and anywhere.
In short this is code for according to Sony 'good news you don't have to have access to your PS5 now to use your Portal, but bad news you do need an Internet connection still, as well as the fact that your games have to be digital and a PS+ subscription. And if you have neither, well sucks for you'. At this point, Sony may as well just make another iteration of the Vita or PSP.
I have a Steam Deck so this upgrade is not going to entice me to pick up a portal (I already stream from my PS5 to my deck and that’s plenty fine for me). Nice that Sony is supporting the device! If I had to speculate, they’re probably planning on rolling out more options for game streaming and this is just the foot in the door. Congrats on joining bsky, it’s really nice being on a platform that shows you just what you follow and in chronological order. Such a simple thing, but it makes a huge difference.
I'm in the same position right now with social media, even being careful not to read comments on youtube unless I'm looking for an answer about something made unclear, which I don't have to do on any of your channels thankfully.
So with this update for PS Portal being able to cloud stream games now.... I'm still wondering, would you still rate Backbone over PS Portal? Or is this just crazy to ask ? Because im still considering buying one of them
Sony has never provided cloud streaming in Australia....while most other countries have been streaming PS3 games, Australia has been in the dark on this feature (thus the reason why Playstation Plus Premium is known as Deluxe over here, because its everything except streaming services, which includes the PS3 catalogue) - so from that angle, ditching the gimped Australian service is a good idea
I never thought I'd see the day that I'd lose so much respect for you. I've watched you for years and you've even given me inspiration for my channel, but to see you schilling a for a site that supports p*dos, intolerance and anti-free speech, I'm done. Sorry, brother. I wish you the best.
There's no shame in being emotionally attached to your accounts. I feel that it gives you that much needed hesitancy to create new accounts on a whim in this world that's constantly trying to coerce you to sign up for something.
Just got the anniversary one in the mail and played a bunch on it. Definitely better than my phone with controller clipped on or iPad with controller. But definitely won’t upgrade my ps account for cloud games
ive been watching your videos for a while now. when it comes to gaming if i open my laptop and youre there, on the first youtube page, im like nice! a voice of reasoning. now, that youre saying you moved to bluesky you have earned my sub
Interesting they do this the same day/ day after Xbox announced Cloud Gaming (steam games from any browser) for Game Pass Ultimate members is available for 50 games.
Welcome to the club of abandoninng social media. I did this 5 years ago by tuning off notifications and I've slowly stopped using a lot of these platforms. I work in technology and I still chose to step away. It should never be in control of your activities, you should choose when to access it instead.
I don’t feel like dusting mine off… 😅 Also geeeeez everyone is stepping back from social media this month. And I don’t wonder why. .-. GOOD. Breathe, people. Stay positive if ya can.
I can’t wait to get a Ps5 and the portal as my tv isn’t working super well which is unfortunate. But yeah can’t wait to have the portal and the PlayStation!
Ugh I have the same issue! UK account and moved to the US also, my UK account is my primary with PlayStation Plus etc and I’m very attached to it due to building up my monthly PS+ library for YEARS. I have a US account but haven’t shifted over to it yet, sounds like it might finally be time as rough as it’ll be. Ridiculous that they don’t let you transfer, even just once as if people don’t move continents
The immigration issue is why I have grown to be quite displeased with Sony in the past 5 years. I had to reset my account on PS but had genuine trouble getting ahold of the UK support because I couldn't use their chat in Canada. I could easily call them due to the time difference. And unlike EVERY other platform and service out there you cannot change the currency on your PS account. I then lost all my saves over the past 5 years because I was only paying for my UK PS+ account, and then when REST mode forced me to factory reset my PS5 I lost all my Canadian saves. I've played 3 games on that console in the past few years because I trust Xbox, Switch and Steamdeck far more. Sony are NOT a global company. They're made up of national silos. In contrast" Netflix, MS and Xbox, Nintendo, Amazon, and Valva all let me convert my currency from GBP in CAD!
The portal is such a dumb device. I mean, I get it. I love gaming in bed or in the kitchen or the bathroom, but I've got my Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck that just do it better. No internet connection required, games installed and ready to play anywhere. Then there's this Portal thing that requires you to purchase a playstation and a subscription on top of having wifi access before you can even use the thing? It's an absolute joke. At least now, you can take it away from home under the right circumstances, but this gaming device is absolutely useless on its own.
I'm in the same boat, I created a Canadian Sony account but now live in France, and I can't buy Canadian games with a french credit card so I have to buy them on the french account and play them on the canadian. I don't want to loose all my trophies 😢 why Sony cannot figure out a way to changean account's country or merge accounts, is beyond me.
Why don't they just make a true successor to the PSP? I guess they don't want to have to make games that rely on less power since PlayStation's USP seems to be exclusive with great graphics. But you look at how Nintendo is able to optimize open-world games for the Switch and I think more is possible than people realize.
@SHKDWN79 no, I mean after the update, where it doesn't need a PS5 to play PS5 games now, does it still need a PS5 when initially setting up the PS Portal? I realize it needed a PS5, BEFORE this update, but what about now, WITH this new update?
So, it's still only streaming? That means this video title is clickbait again, oh well. I actually thought they might at least allow you to download their Classic PS1/PS2 emulators on there, you know, running software _natively_ on the device, what a "Handheld" is _supposed_ to do... but alas!

I had to reset my account on PS but had genuine trouble getting ahold of the UK support because I couldn't use their chat in Canada. I could easily call them due to the time difference. And unlike EVERY other platform and service out there you cannot change the currency on your PS account. I then lost all my saves over the past 5 years because I was only paying for my UK PS+ account, and then when REST mode forced me to factory reset my PS5 I lost all my Canadian saves. I've played 3 games on that console in the past few years because I trust Xbox, Switch and Steamdeck far more.
Sony are NOT a global company. They're made up of national silos.
In contrast" Netflix, MS and Xbox, Nintendo, Amazon, and Valva all let me convert my currency from GBP in CAD!
I like that technicaly! Like if ur not a huge gamer but wanna try out some games it’s worth it!
instagram is pretty lame too actually
And toxic. Ar least in Germany the comment sections often are so disgusting.
Good, please don't mention Bob Wulff. I almost forgot about his shaggy ass.
The portal is such a dumb device. I mean, I get it. I love gaming in bed or in the kitchen or the bathroom, but I've got my Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck that just do it better. No internet connection required, games installed and ready to play anywhere. Then there's this Portal thing that requires you to purchase a playstation and a subscription on top of having wifi access before you can even use the thing? It's an absolute joke. At least now, you can take it away from home under the right circumstances, but this gaming device is absolutely useless on its own.
I'm in the same boat, I created a Canadian Sony account but now live in France, and I can't buy Canadian games with a french credit card so I have to buy them on the french account and play them on the canadian. I don't want to loose all my trophies 😢 why Sony cannot figure out a way to changean account's country or merge accounts, is beyond me.
Tbh with the psnow steaming i didnt understand why this couldnt have done that from the start!
Why don't they just make a true successor to the PSP? I guess they don't want to have to make games that rely on less power since PlayStation's USP seems to be exclusive with great graphics. But you look at how Nintendo is able to optimize open-world games for the Switch and I think more is possible than people realize.
This is exciting, I don't have a ps5, but for $200 I might get this thing once they fix the bugs and glitches 😊
do you realize that now you can play with kim with you on a portal and her on your ps5.
Does it still require a PS5, for initial setup though?
Yes. It does not work without the base ps5
@@SHKDWN79do you reckon that will change as was looking to buy one but don’t have a ps5
@SHKDWN79 no, I mean after the update, where it doesn't need a PS5 to play PS5 games now, does it still need a PS5 when initially setting up the PS Portal? I realize it needed a PS5, BEFORE this update, but what about now, WITH this new update?
I CAN PLAY DAXTER ON A HANDHELD SYSTEM MADE IN 2024 NOW?
the fact that your a light mode user is the worst thing you have ever done
You could also have just made an extra account and kept the Australian one too Woods XD. You are gonna need one for the early releases XD.
Really hoping this feature comes to Australia
Don’t think it will a lot of countries ban u from making a psn account
When i first saw this, i thought wii u.
So, it's still only streaming? That means this video title is clickbait again, oh well.
I actually thought they might at least allow you to download their Classic PS1/PS2 emulators on there, you know, running software _natively_ on the device, what a "Handheld" is _supposed_ to do... but alas!
The fact it's only available for some regions is so typical of Sony.
I think it’s ok to use someone’s tutorial video if you’re going to shout them out and give them support especially if you’re as big as you are.
so basically stadia but with Sony
Play w/ stellar blade on the toilet........ .Sounds about right
If u think about sony selling psone with 20 Games for 150 bucks, in comparison The ps Portal is now a must buy 😮😮😮
Playing Stellar Blade on the John with the Portal? Pishposh, I have a 70 inch in there with a mini fridge and a PS5 Pro. I don’t need this handheld.
This is better than I realized I am gay.
I don’t use social media. It’s all so negative and BS. I only use facebook for only the marketplace so I can buy and sell for my gaming collection
When did this become a react channel?
