Rejoice, PlayStation Portal fans - Sony's latest handheld can now do more than simply stream games from your PS5. While I'm still not sure why it wasn't a feature from day one, you can now use PS Plus to play games via the cloud independently using an internet connection. The catch? Well, I'm not so sure retailers will feel a need to serve up Black Friday discounts now that the device is inherently better value.
I'm still hopeful that the PlayStation Portal will end up joining this year's Black Friday PS5 deals pile. But, since the device has now earned the right to fight in the best gaming handheld ring alongside other cloud devices, I'd argue it's now better value even at full price. For context, you can grab one for $199 at Amazon right now, and there's even renewed options for $179.99 if you're not bothered by pre-loved tech.
