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.   There's a PlayStation State of Play coming up on 12th February that might act as an announcement point.

SAO Hollow Realization splits for a western release

Bandai Namco so owns the Vita, in fact I'm going to replace the Sony logo with Bandai's on the blog logo (when I get a second). The latest translation is Sword Art Online Hollow Realization, announced today and bringing the latest SAO team monster battling and RPG to the west.

All of which means Bandai has pretty half of the biggest Vita western releases next year, with SAO, God Eater(s), Gundam(s) and more. Tecmo's Attack on Titan, Square's World of Final Fantasy and Falcom's Tokyo Xanadu will make it a great year if you love your Japanese games.


Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization takes place in one of the stages set within the original Sword Art Online. Taking on the role of Kirito, players enter a new VRMMORPG world called “Sword Art Origin”, which was created on the game’s original sever, giving players flashbacks of memories from past events. Players will enter the early period within the “Sword Art Origin” world and must find a way to win the game one more time.
