games that are streamed through PlayStation Plus Premium’s cloud streaming, are not supported
A bit of a let down. Not even their cloud gaming service is supported.
I don’t doubt there’s a market for this, I just wish for $200 it had more use cases than just “PS5 controller with a screen”. I have a Steam Deck with Chiaki4deck installed for this and while it does cost 2x, it’s a proper gaming machine and a computer.
I wonder what the internals are, and if it’s moddable.

Would have been cool if they figured out a way to stream those games directly to the Portal.
EDIT: Looks like it runs Android, with Google’s services removed. https://androiddev.social/@MishaalRahman/110939834517107216. Wasn’t aware that there were leaks that confirmed this.
I am pretty sure they know how to get proper cloud streaming going. Even the Vita has it. But why would they? So some people who don’t own a PS5 get this thing and then don’t buy more games and just stream their PS plus games? I can’t imagine they would make much money that way!
