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 the goal is to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners, something that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   The recent February  PlayStation State of Play  saw no announcement.

Take 2 trademarks GTA City Stories

All I do know for sure is there will never, ever by a LEGO Grand Theft Auto game, although now I mention it. :)

NOTE: There's a horribly fake piece of "boxart" on Twitter for a GTA combo pack of Vice and Liberty City Stories, don't believe that piece of crap for a minute.
