It is getting bad reviews from other websites and gives a reason for other people to bash/hate Sony's failed products such as the PSP go and PS move...
Will it get any better from here or will Sony abandon this as a whole?
The whole initiative seems undercooked to me. To release a product with 'TV' in the name that doesn't support Netflix is madness. I suspect that Sony never expected this to sell particularly well, so hopefully those who know what they're buying into will it enjoy it. To be honest, I doubt it will register as a blip on most peoples' radar.
I think Sony is betting it all on the PS4, which has lead them to abandon Vita/Vita TV, I don't blame it as the company is clearly in bad financial shape and cannot risk screwing up with the PS4 so I guess it makes sense to concentrate all efforts on the product that has the best chance of getting them out of the hole
To be fair, Netflix is utter crap. Much like Amazon prime instant video, Amazon is far worse for churning out crap though. Despite now TV being run by satan, its still the best option in the UK for the odd splurge of decent tv.
I have to agree with Sammy to advertise something as TV and not even have Netflix on it is mind boggling? Does it even have Sony's Crackle on it? I think what it is is Sony bought Gaikai out and honestly didn't think on how they could use it properly or use it to make the money back for them. So now they are just looking for ways like remote play and streaming devices.

I think there is Crackle on the PS TV if a article mentions...
This thing hasn't even been marketed on TVs, ironic. This thing has the biggest launch lineup of all consoles. This thing lacks media entertainment apps. This thing does remote play, PS Now...
But the reason why this thing was a critical failure in spite of all this, comes back to the forgotten step child - PS Vita.

I can't deny that any longer, uncharted2007! You have a good point.

@Enobmah_Shards Dude, the PS TV is HOPELESS. I mean look at the Vita- do you really think that an even-more-poorly-marketed, screenless Vita that the general public doesn't know what it's for has any chance at all?

What of the psp then? It had a rocky start when it launched, now look at it. Maybe history will repeat itself with this or the slim bundle?

I want a PS TV because I never had a Vita and probably never will. I just can't really get into handheld gaming. I have a 3DS and barely use it. I just want to play some of the can't-miss games on Vita (mostly Killzone Mercenaries) and PS TV is a cheap way to do it.
