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 ...

Kan Colle Kai the Vita's most wanted

Now that Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is out, you'd think Famitsu's most-wanted list in Japan has a little more room for Vita games. But no, there's very little making big pinging noises on the radar, with Kan Colle Kai "This Ship Breaks", announced over a year ago, the top Vita hit.

Even reasonable big series like Phantasy Star and God Eater are way down the bottom of the list, suggesting that the Vita won't get much in the way of big sales at the critical end of this year. There's been no real update to the Kan Colle Kai site, although the date has moved to early 2015, so I wonder what the recent hype has been about it, can't say I've noticed anything.

Anyone seem something about it? All I know is its a naval fleet sim, probably with lot more characterization than any western effort would have. UPDATE: Apparently its based on a browser Flash game with over 2 million players.
