Possible new PlayStation Portal model pays homage to the Vita's OLED

While much of the focus on PlayStation's next steps is the PS6 and PS6 Portable , the two-year old PlayStation Portal could be getting a revamp according to those pesky internet rumours.  Update : Hints at pricing are around £/$250-299 for the new model, but everything remains deeply in rumours territory.

PSP Still Killing It in Japan

Its a good job Dragon Quest Monsters is doing such a good job on the DS, otherwise the games charts in Japan would look rather lop-sided. In a rather quiet week for sales, as most of Japan is on holiday, the other four spots in the top five are all PSP games.

1. Dragon Quest Monsters (NDS) 43,886 sales
2. Patapon 3 (PSP) 21,546
3. Pro Baseball Spirits 2011 (PSP) 20,090
4. Final Promise Story (PSP) 18,185
5. 2nd Super Robot Wars (PSP) 13,670

You can see the full chart over at Andriasang, with three other PSP games in the top 20.
