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.   There's a PlayStation State of Play coming up on 12th February that might act as an announcement point. Certainly, PlayStation needs to make Portal more a core member of the PS5 family, rather than a distant cousin that most of its appearances suggest.  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 ...

DekaVita lets the PlayStation TV go portable

You own a Vita right? You might own a PlayStation TV. But, why not plug that PlayStation TV into a portable screen to create a PlayStation Vita TV! That's the slightly mad idea someone at GameTech in Japan, who make all kind of console and handheld extras, has had for around $170 or £108 (special offer, plus your PS TV, of course).

UPDATE: This thing could be genius, it is jamming the Vita tweet streams, and is way more discussed than official products like the Phantasy Star Nova bundles, the pink Vita model, or pretty much anything.

With a 7-inch IPS screen and plug-in connectivity, its not full-HD, with only 1024*600 res (which is probably no better given then larger screen than the Vita's 960*544 display), but has all the buttons (including four triggers) to play Vita games and Wi-Fi to Remote Play your PS4 titles. It can also act as a PS3 controller. 


While its not quite the PlayStation 4 Portable that I dream of, with full HD, its a step in the right direction, and who knows, if it sells, Sony might pick it up and run with the full fat version. Check out the official page of the DekaVita, which does, if nothing else looks a bit more comfy than the standard Vita.

GameTech is taking pre-orders now, note if they don't hit enough, then the product won't be made, but it seems to be going gangbusters on social media, so here's hoping!
