JAPANESE entertainment giant Sony on Thursday unveiled a portable touchscreen PlayStation as it looks to launch a fresh challenge to Nintendo and Apple in the competitive mobile gaming market.
At a special media event in Tokyo, Sony also unveiled a ‘Suite’ application for older PlayStation games allowing them to be played on mobile phones and tablet computers running Google’s Android operating system.
The ‘Next Generation Portable’ PlayStation will succeed Sony’s PlayStation Portable handheld device and boasts 3G mobile connectivity and wifi, allowing users to download games and other content, said Kazuo Hirai, president and group chief executive, Sony Computer Entertainment.
The NGP features a five-inch organic light-emitting diode (OLED) touchscreen, a GPS receiver, a motion sensor and a rear panel touchpad to control certain actions, as well as navigation buttons and a joystick.
Sony said the device would be available in time for the 2011 holiday shopping season but did not indicate a price.
The Japanese giant’s PSP Go, launched in November 2009, already features software downloads through a wireless connection, allowing players to also browse the Internet, watch movies, play music and read books and comics.
I am excited Sony will install an OLED display in the PSP2/NGP! LCD’s just look dated compared with OLED. OLED’s draw less energy too and thats another important plus for a handheld game console.
