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 ...

PlayStation Home Arcade comes to the Vita

Not sure when it arrived, but you can now download the PlayStation Home arcade machine to the Vita (via the EU PSN at least) and enjoy some mini-game fun on the go. It comes with WipEout 2D, Ice Breaker and a Scribble Shooter demo for free.


The 108MB download provides yet another source of diversions for Vita owners and perhaps will pave the way for some more Home content making it from the PS3 to Sony's handheld. Never having had a PS3, are there lots of good games for this? And does it do proper arcade conversions?
