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 ...

Aqua Kitty and Rock Boshers upgrades incoming

Both rather perky original little PlayStation Mobile titles, Tikipod is bringing both in fully updated form to the Vita. Aqua Kitty is a tight, suq-aquatic, Defender game with a feline fetish while Rock Boshers did the Rockman genre proud.

Throw in director's cuts, new levels, better visuals, trophies and whatever else the developers can craft and they should join the growing roster of games getting a second chance at Vita life. Tikipod helped out on the recent Gravity Crash Ultra and have a fair history of ports and upgrades. Hopefully the prices won't shoot up as these are fun, but not exactly essential titles.



I also hope this means that every coder and his or her dog is planning an update to their PSM game, I'd consider Aqua Kitty worthy of one, Rock Boshers as borderline, but would rather these guys were working on new games. TikiPod does have something called Iron Fisticle in the works, more of that please!
