Abstract: Let's address the positives first. PlayStation TV remains a beautifully designed piece of kit - it looks great, it feels solid and well-built, and the plastics are of a decent quality. It's completely identical to the original Japanese model of course, on...
Small, sleek portable design, Supports Dualshock 3 and 4 controllers, Three free games included
Inconsistent PS Vita physical game support, Remote Play only available in 720pHD, Small amount of onboard storage
PS TV: Remote Play Sony's big push is on PS4 Remote Play. This works in pretty much the same way as it does on the PS Vita, letting you play next gen games on another TV in the house. Like Sony's handheld, both console and microconsole need to be on the s...
A cheap console with access to tonnes of games, small and out of the way, PS4 Remote Play gives you access to your PS4 library to play in another room, simple to use

Equal functionality and price as existing streaming set top boxes, World, class gaming pedigree, Cheapest game console on the market
Proprietary and expensive memory cards, Unknown internals and partnerships, Game streaming unwise over slow internet connections
