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 ...

Soul Sacrifice dated for 7 March in Japan, cool bundle

The game that might be the Vita's Monster Hunter saviour type thing will be out on 7 March in Japan (the same day as Monster Hunter 4, chortle) in a new demonic bundle with a 4G card, custom case and neat red design with matching ear buds. There will also be the basic game and a dual pack to encourage multiplayer among friends. A demo is due out before the end of the year.




Is this "the one"? We'll see, but it will take a mighty effort to pitch this into a market that seems to be losing interest in anything non-3DS at pace. It would also be good to see a western release soon after to catch the wave if it does take off in Japan.
