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 ...

New Digimon trailer packs in the monsters

Yep, all the news has a Japanese flavour today, as I guess the west is officially on holiday, or giving up on the Vita. Digimon Cybersleuth on Sony's portable is looking increasingly like a great game. There's a polished art style, attractive characters, great-looking battles and an interesting setting, outside of the endless country walks.

All that and a jazz fusion soundtrack, how can it go wrong? The western petition is just 3,000 signatures short of 50,000 at which point Bandai Namco will apparently consider bringing it to the west. It doesn't look that hard a port, and Digimon has sold over here on the PSP. So, there's some hope there! I think it still has a 2015 release date, so there's not much point in getting excited yet.

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
