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 ...

God Eater 2 and Vita TV ready to hit Japanese stores (pic)

The Vita's main hope for a killer app launches in Japan in just a couple of hours, with the usual midnight events and store openings. Here's what the kids are (hopefully) after, with the Vita TV potentially becoming the Vita's trojan horse, offering something Nintendo has played with in the past, but I can't see them making a 3DS adaptor for the Wii U.

God Eater 2 has had all the marketing, got the review score and probably a tee-shirt, now all it needs is the 600,000 plus players of God Eater Burst to move on up. Will they stick with the PSP version, or all upgrade to Vita and/or Vita TV? We'll find out with next week's Japanese charts, but look out for updates today as things shake out in Japan.

Note, the Vita TV is apparently region-locked, so don't think about importing one. Most likely Sony is trying to stop imports to the west, suggesting it has a launch for us planned.
