PlayStation TV Launching In October With Almost 700 Games On Day One

Standalone system will sell for $100, while you can also spend $140 on a bundle that includes a controller, memory card, and game.

With the launch of PlayStation TV in North America now less than a month away, Sony today announced that there will be almost 700 games available to play on launch day.

PS TV can play many PlayStation Vita games (either through downloading or inserting the actual game card) in addition to digital PlayStation One and PSP games. Through Remote Play, it can be used to stream PlayStation 4 games from one PS4 console in your home onto a separate television that the PS TV is connected to.

And when Sony's streaming game service, PlayStation Now, comes to PS TV, users will be able to stream PlayStation 3 titles to the device. PS Now just recently entered open beta on PS3, but Sony has not announced when support is coming for PS TV.

In addition, Sony writes on the PlayStation Blog that the PS TV lineup will "continue to expand" with other popular titles, including Minecraft.

When PS TV launches in North America on October 14, you can buy a standalone system for $99, or a special bundle that includes a wireless DualShock 3 controller, an 8 GB memory card, and a copy of The Lego Movie Video Game for $140.

Sony also has announced that a limited-time PS TV bundle will be available at Walmart. It includes a system, DualShock 3 controller, 8 GB memory card, and a copy of Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. This bundle will also sell for $140.
