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 ...

Sony's last throw of the dice for big games in April's PS+ offering

In the US, and Europe, April will bring Vita owners Killzone Mercenary (i.e., the game that every single Vita owner should already have) and the quirky newcomer MonsterBag. That pretty much signals the end of the line for Sony's major first party titles on the Vita as far as PlayStation Plus is concerned, so its pretty much downhill from here.



That's probably not an issue if you also have a PS4 with a string of new games to come, or PS3 owners with a massive archive for Sony to raid, but if you only have a Vita then pretty soon, you could be asking what's the point. Perhaps the deal might convince those picking up the new low-cost PS TV to get PS+, but even with bigger sales, that can't be a huge number!
