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 ...

PSN (UK) Top Sellers

Helldivers is sitting pretty here, I've yet to try this one, but since its managed to climb higher than other big name new releases like Oreshika and Hyperdevotion, guess it shows the power of some good old-fashioned tactical combat and proper multiplayer. I've seen some complaints and patches flying about for Helldivers, so perhaps another week or two for me.

I guess the high positioning for the currently Free Hotline Miami suggests the sequel will soon be storming to the top of this list.

Helldivers
Oreshika
Hotline Miami
Grim Fandango
Hyperdevotion Noire
Dissidia 012
La-Mulana EX

Amazon UK has a more staid list, of PS Vita top sellers with FIFA 15 still inexplicably on top.
