PlayStation should take advantage of the fact they're able to sell higher priced accessories nowadays & release a high-end PlayStation Camera for PS5

PlayStation used to try getting the most out of cheaper cameras that could be sold at mass market prices like $39 -$59 . But now that we are upper class gamers they should try their luck selling a camera in the $100 - $200 range.

All we need is a backbutton attachment that works for the both DualSense and the Edge. The DS4 version is one of the great accessories ever made.
 
O onQ123 you seem to be really enjoying your PS Portal.

The only thing I would want from Sony is to make a phone case with a slider controller, like so:

I feel like it would be better than our current option, which is everyone simply copying the backbone controller.

Would be nice for those who want it. Could sell some decent numbers if they leverage their camera tech.

Like instantly becoming the main character in a game and the character can even wear clothes that look like the clothes you have on.

So, just cosmetic changes then? I'm not sure people would drop a three figure sum to have their face and clothing in a game.

Because I've seen the future and a camera with NPU onboard would charge everything
Interesting? Though I was only thinking of it,I would add a Kinect like camera if I had a competing gaming console on the market. It stems from some of the interest games made with PS camera. My personal favorite is Digg's Nightcrawler for the Wonderbook.

Or they could just raise the price of the Dual Sense by $5. Since they break so easily, they'll be able to skim a little more off each player several times before the generation is over.

No I was just giving an example of what could be done if the camera has onboard NPU for AI stuff.

Live streamers wouldn't mind having a good camera without having to use external streaming devices.

And they can include a copy of Skyrim that’s playable on the camera!
 
Yes. And afterwards they should sell a Playstation Camcorder and a Playstation VCR, thus leveraging their market position.
Bruh, give me that Sony 2024 VHS player.

OT, the PS4 camera is fine, I really don't know what else people would want. It's great for streaming, I use it with a greenscreen, turn myself black & white and make myself transparent so the zero people who watch can seen the game and not a giant square of a dork playing games to his zero audience. lol. :messenger_grinning_sweat:

I stream to feed the VR algorithm and obscure games that were dog piled and forgotten yet deserve some love.

they can't be bothered to program basic features into their current camera broadcasting so why would anyone want a higher quality one
