But even they eventually tacked goofy controllers onto an Android tablet and printed money by being the only console you can play on a bus.

There was a bit of hope from Sony with the PSP and then the Vita, but they didn't seem to push it to the logical next step, like Nintendo did. Which was foolish, like the Vita had the PSTV version, and it was a bonehead move not to follow through with the trajectory they were already on.
