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 to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   As the improvement in connectivity and streaming tech, proven by many gamers enjoying their PS5 or PlayStation Plus streamed content from around the world, an updated Portal Pro could be on the cards.  Possibly featuring a 120Hz display and an OLED screen in honour of the mighty Vita, that'd be cool. Assuming the 120HZ streaming is solid, an OLED would be the more welcome addition, especially with the latest generation of technology offering QD-OLED (Quantum Dot-OLED), WOLED (White-OLED) and other buzzy titles for smarter display.  Whatever ...

UK PS Vita chart, Ridge Racer on the rise

What's the power of a little positive press? Ridge Racer is the only real mover on the charts this week, up six places. The recent DLC (that's free if you have the Gold Pass) making it more of a full game and the hope of some decent content to come, sees it pop up the charts.

Sure, that might only be a few hundred extra sales, given the Vita's moribund state, and lack of new releases, but any progress is good news. If only this chart counted digital sales then next week you'd expect F1 2011 to get a kick thanks to the weekend sale (now over folks), but it won't, come on Chart Track, get a move on!
