Sumo-
- Blocking console cross play (including ensuring epic accounts were locked to PS4 so you couldn’t use the same account for fortnite on any other device)
- Blocking third party subscription services like EA play
- Saying consumers didn’t want backwards compatibility
- Blocking mod support for Bethesda games that was offered on other consoles
- Requiring FTP games have ps+ subscriptions (unlike Xbox / nintendo)
That’s just on the PS4.
Let’s not forget their proprietary memory card formats for PSP / vita etc which ridiculously high cost vs SD cards.

I’m not sure it will be possible as controllers are all wireless which means Sony controls the connection via Bluetooth / WiFi and the console software.
@Sumo of course. No one is making a decision based just on that but it’s another example of their distain for customers in general.
Nintendo are guilty of it too imo, though not quite to the same degree.
