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.

Latest PSP Famitsu Scores, Valkyria Chronicles 3 & More

Kenka Banchou 5: Otoko no Housoku – 8/9/8/8 (official site link)
Tsuku Monogatari – 8/8/8/7 (official site link)
Toaru Majutsu no Index – 7/7/6/6 (PlayAsia Link)

Valkyria is definitely headed our way, not sure about Kenka Banchou but it looks doable, and definitely not the other two.
