The Rumour: Various reports from Chinese games media suggest the possibility of Sony unveiling a new Nintendo Switch-esque handheld console at E3.

How Likely Is It?: Taking information as gospel from dubiously-translated sources is always risky, but the main issue here is that releasing another handheld console would be majorly flipping off PS Vita owners, who have been all-but-abandoned as of late.

On the other hand, Sony did file patents for new handheld tech recently, though this also wouldn't be the first time they drew up hardware plans that never came to fruition.

In short, it'd be pretty damn surprising, considering the sheer wealth of tech they already have to talk about. 1/10
