Remember the PocketStation? Yea I don't either. That's because it was a niche accessory for the PS1, released only in Japan. It packed a small LCD screen into a memory card and gave you a basic control set so you could play little Game and Watch style games on it. Well now Sony has teased some big news in the world of PocketStation coming in just a few days - what could it be?

 

Probably, we're looking at some sort of Smartphone app that will give you the same functionality as the original for save transfers, perhaps letting you take your game with you to your friends house to play on their PS3/PS4. It could also theoretically give you access to simple companion games that then unlock stuff for you on whatever main game you're playing on the home console.

 

If any of you members understand Japanese feel free to pipe in
