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 ...

Zone of the Enders HD first screens

With the Metal Gear HD collection headed our way in June, don't forget about the Zone of the Enders collection which is also due on the PS Vita at some point. Konami has just released the first screens for the game. These are for the big consoles, but shouldn't look much different when shrunk down to the Vita.


The big-box versions are due for the end of October, so perhaps a Vita release in early 2013 isn't out of the question.


These classic Hideo Kojima titles are set around colonised planets in the solar system and pack in lots of Egyptian mythology. 


At the unveiling in Japan, the developers have said that work is starting on an official sequel to the series, which is probably not something the Vita will be able to cope with, unless Hideo designs it outright for the handheld. Check out some concept art at Andriasang.
