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 ...

Vita sales flat despite PS4 launch

In the mystical world of Japanese games sales, the Vita remains glued to 18,000 sales (with the PS Vita TV chipping in or 16,500 without). Assuming Sony were hoping for a boost from the launch of the PS4, then that hasn't happened, yet. Still, that's a continuing solid performance with some big games to come.


There are no Vita games in the chart, which is littered with PS4 releases, of which only the new Yakuza game really sold well.


Note, shrunk the vertical axis number to better show the dinky changes in recent weeks. Hopefully something will get moving soon.
