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 puts out a belated E3 Vita video

I guess this will roll out around the regions, but it looks like while all eyes were on Los Angeles, you had to check in with New Zealand to find out what was going on with the Vita. If this is the clip they showed at E3 when the cameras were panning around, it offers a reasonable mix of third parties and indies.

Reports say there are no Vita units on Sony's E3 stand, compounding the company's mishandling of the console. But on a brighter note, there's a few games here that are new to me:

  • Kitten Squad, 
  • Death Tales (ah, this used to be called Reaper), 
  • One Way Trip (mentioned last E3, but nothing since)
  • Starlit Adventures (mobile port). 

There's also confirmation that Minecraft Story Mode and Tales of the Borderlands are still on the way.
