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.

Invizimals won't only exist on your Vita's screen, real toys coming soon

Based on the success of Skylanders, and I don't know how Disney's toy-game thing is doing, but Sony has got a toy tie-in deal to go with those beasts behind the sofa, Novarama's Invizimals. I'm not sure if that'll be like a smart-toy service that interacts with the Vita or just some fluffy or plastic versions of the monsters from the screen.

With two games out later this month, Invizimals could lead the child-friendly charge for the handheld and PS3, but those toys had better arrive fast to make an impact on the shelves. Invizimals: The Lost Kingdom and Invizimals: The Alliance are coming to PS3 and PS Vita on October 30th
