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 ...

PSM's Life of Pixel update is down to the fans

The PSM title that pays homage to gaming formats throughout history had a decent update recently and the developers Super Icon have gone on record to thank the fans.
"Feedback from those who downloaded and played Life of Pixel v1 has given Super Icon a fantastic opportunity to listen and revisit the game, while fixing a few issues that were present in the initial release.
So what is new?"

Audio; we went back to the drawing board, scrapped everything and started again! There is now a unique music track for each machine plus brand new sound FX all created either with the original hardware or via emulation. This has really helped to enhance the identity of each machine.

Fairer game levels; Life of Pixel can be hard – particularly the later levels and we didn’t want to change this, but it could also be unfair. We went through every level, playing them over and over and tweaking the layout as needed. So while we didn’t try to make the levels particularly easier – they are now a fair test of skill, not chance.

New Levels; we added a new machine into the game; the Sega Master System, it is unlocked after you collect all 64 special gems.
