As a 15 year old this was the coolest thing ever to show off and play. It was awesome that I Minecraft pocket edition very first came out for this phone. It was so cool to be one of the first to ever play Minecraft pocket edition. And this was hands down the best emulator phone of its day. NES, GBA, SNES, GENESIS my god having the super clicky responsive built in controller was fucking incredible.

There's a bunch of standalone android handhelds too, none with that added phone functionality.

@hikerclarence7092
@hikerclarence7092 4 ай бұрын
It's not crazy because it's not a good idea. A sliding controller mechanism costs a lot of money to produce, is fragile and has a lot of moving parts to break, would make a phone unreasonably thick, makes it impossible to put on a robust case like we're used to now, and actively prevents you from choosing your own controls because it would probably be too thick to accommodate the external mobile controllers we have now. Drop it once and you might break the sliding mechanism, which would be a terrible look for the company. People who want to use their phones to game on already have tons of choice for controllers. You would be solving a problem that doesn't exist. External controllers for phones like we have now didn't really exist back in 2011, so the xperia play was technically solving a problem of the time. The fact that it flopped even then says everything there is to say about that concept.

Yeah it would be cool to have an Xperia play with a similar size and modern or at least a Bluetooth controller that transforms a phone into something like the xperia play. People under your comment definitely don't get the idea that a pocketable device with a hidden joystick is great for portable gaming because it makes the device very pocketable (the backbone isn't very pocketable).

I bought a refurbished one in 2020 because I always wanted one. I installed custom ROMs on it, and see what I could do with it. Although it's a very competent SNES and GBA emulator, it's a dumb phone with a controller attached. Anything Android works as slow as any 8-year old smartphone, the App Store was discontinued so everything had to be installed with an APK installer, and N64/PS1 emulation is nothing to write home about. The touchpad sticks are a nice idea but very few games support it (and it's not really comfortable), so even though I'm glad I bought one to tinker around, there's a reason they didn't came back with that form factor, or why retro handhelds filled that Android gaming niche. It's an interesting piece of gaming history, but it's far from a daily driver.

@@aturchomicz821 You know who I wanted to build an Xperia Play instead of Sony? Xbox. Microsoft never made a handheld, and while Vita was striving towards graphical handheld power and the 3DS had its bells and whistles, Xbox could have made a mobile/handheld hybrid to compete with both; it would have given Windows Phone much-needed value as a mobile OS. Imagine a WP-exclusive Halo or Gears of War running flawlessly on a handheld. Would it be succesful? Don't really think so, as Windows Phone also flopped, but damn I would have wanted to see them try instead of seeing two Sony branches (Sony Computer Entertainment and Sony Ericsson) tripping over each other as to who would take the lead in the final generation of the handheld console wars.

To be honest they could just release the Switch or rather Switch 2 with a SIM-Card Slot and say there you have a phone. It's more like a tablet, but you can surely use the Switch as such when you remove the Joy-Cons. I believe you can even put Android on there with homebrew (Switch is powered by a modified mobile processor after all), Nintendo could just make it official.

Yeah for the Xperia play you have to mod it to take all the bloat which speeds the device. Then you have to get a thick battery for it. If you want to play PSP don’t get this. Otherwise it’s good for up to PS1 although it varies. Also the slide mechanism has to be fixed after a while. If you are willing to deal with all of that go ahead cause it’s a really cool device

I'm going to add that sideloading games (installing the APK file) is necessary to game on this device and that the screen cable sometimes needs to be replaced because it has the tendency to break every few years.

I had one that slid both ways, which was super useless lmao. I would sometimes entertain myself by trying to open both the vertical and horizontal keyboard at the same time since you could get around the locking mechanism with a deft touch.

I had this as a kid. Felt super cool. Didn't know about any modding communities let alone how to change an SD card so I just played the hell out of those preloaded games. Left me with like zero storage for other apps so I had to choose between having the Twitter or Facebook app on my phone as my only social media. Really changed the trajectory of my entire life

I had this phone for about 4 years as soon as I entered high school. There were a lot of PlayStation minis that had full controller support and I remembered playing a lot of crash on it as well. It was always a treat when a game that I downloaded supported the controller. As a smartphone, it is pretty basic. I do have a huge love for this thing though.

I had this phone, so did my cousin. We loved the phone for playing Minecraft and old games, but holy shit was this thing faulty. We both had to get replacements, my cousin had to get 3 different ones. They just kept crapping out without us doing nothing to them. The hinges on the models we got seemed to be either really low quality or just faulty.

This is such the epitome of "It looked good on paper". It's a phone, but has an actual game controller! You can play console quality games on the go, and don't need another device! The reality was the controls felt a vastly inferior to an actual controller. You could theoretically play Crash, then switch to the phone when you wanted to take a call, though you had to hope that playing games didn't drain the battery by then.

I think it was a totally missed opportunity for Sony to have a phone that had the PSP store, and it played all PSP games only digitally, and also plays previous PSP online purchases, that would’ve been so cool.

I had one of these! I think I still have it somewhere. The controls were actually pretty well implemented, and as a phone it functioned well enough too. The only real drawback was a lack of storage space, I have no idea why they didn't provide more internal storage considering they wanted you to buy games for it.
