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 ...

Sony's E3 presser a late night snoozefest for Euro Vita owners

Sony has already admitted that AAA for the Vita is pretty much toast. A possible leaked schedule shows not a single Vita glimmer of light in a sea of PS4 powerhouses. So, apart from an indie and JRPG sizzle real, there's likely little reason for Europe to stay up late to listen to the dronings from the west coast.

The press event takes place at 2AM UK, 3AM Europe and if you're lucky enough to have a PS4 will be a stream of delights. About the best you can hope for is a price cut, which won't do much for sales, leaving Sony to flog the Vita as a PS4 remote play gizmo. Of course, I seriously hope to be wrong, but I'm not going to lose sleep over this one.
