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. Presumably the goal is to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners, something that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   The recent February  PlayStation State of Play  saw no announcement.

That's assuming the Monster Hunter armies aren't all happy playing on their 3DS or using the PSP version on their Vita (above) - but I figure Capcom will have something special to help move Japan's gamers on to the next version.

Capcom said it has no official comment to make, which means its still furiously typing up a press release.
