$200 to play a console game on a different screen only within the same network is insane. You could spend $100 more and get a full blown handheld console. This is fucking stupid, Sony.
What are you buying for $300? Steam deck is about as cheap as you can get and that's for $360. It's also heavier, smaller screen, has a lower quality screen, and will run out of battery quicker.
So if you don't do pc gaming, why on earth would you want to spend closer to double the price?
You know why you think it's a stupid product? You either live alone or you still live with mom and dad and have a ps5 in your bedroom. This product isn't for you, and you're an idiot for thinking if it's not something little ol you would want, than no one else must have a use for it, either.
This feels like too much emotion for the subject matter.
Edit: removed an errant “a” that made the sentence read as if Mario wrote it.
Ironically, it'd make more sense if you lived with mom and dad, you play ps5 while they watch whatever they watch all in the same room
