They did. It’s called the Vita and it’s still amazing even after Sony dumped it. I have one a friend cracked for me, and any game I could possibly want to play runs at a crisp 50 fps with no fluctuation. If only they had marketed it better.
I have one as well, but let’s not overpraise it. That handheld isn’t a “ps4 as a handheld” (obviously since the vita came out 2012 or 2011 cant remember which). And sadly it struggles to play its generation’s games (i.e. Borderlands 2 (one of my favs on vita) runs at 20-40 fps).
There are great games that showcase its abilities auch as the killzone game, but that was made for that system.
And let us not forget that it wasn’t a successful handheld. There is a reason sony hasn’t made a new handheld device since.

PS4 quality games on a portable format would be amazing, and it’s just baffling how Sony missed the chance to do it first.
