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 ...

Set your alarm clocks and get ready for Tokyo, big Vita news afoot?

Sony's Tokyo Game Show event takes place at 5AM U.K. time tomorrow. While a new, cheaper, PS3 is likely to be the most talked about event, rumours scuttling around suggest Sony has a few new Vita titles to unveil. Check out Sony's TGS site here, use the Nico Nico link at the bottom to watch the show live tomorrow.

We'll certainly see the likes of Phantasy Star Online 2 running on the Vita, but as for all-new announcements, who knows? Capcom, Sega and Atlus could all be partners with new things to show, and Sony will have its own cards to play. But, as we've seen with Hatsume Miku and other big Vita releases, it needs a flood of games rather than a trickle, so if there isn't a rush of news, don't expect those sales figures to rise anytime soon.

What do you want to see, out of the event?
