PlayStation TV out now in Australia

Sony's PlayStation TV micro-console is now available for purchase Australia-wide at an RRP of AUD$149.95. The PlayStation TV is built on the same hardware as the PlayStation Vita, and can play the majority of PlayStation Vita games – with the exception of those that require extension usage of Vita's touchscreen and camera.

Sony's new micro-console is also able to download older titles from the original PlayStation and PlayStation and Portable, and has access to Sony's online digital content library, including music,  TV and movies.

The PlayStation TV also features Sony's Remote Play technology, allowing users to stream games from their PlayStation 4 to their PlayStation TV.

A controller is not included with the PlayStation TV, but the console is compatible with both PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 DualShock wireless controllers. Users will also need to purchase a PlayStation Vita compatible memory card separately.
