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.   The recent February  PlayStation State of Play  saw no announcement.

Vita sales up ahead of Persona 4 Dancing All Night launch

Minecraft continues to lurk in the Media Create top 10, now over 200,000 physical sales. The latest Legend of Heroes adventure and Shiren 5 are both heading down fast, topping out around a limp 25,000 sales.

But alongside Persona, Japan gets Chaos;Child, Tower of Desire, Freedom Wars in the best of range, plus a bunch of visual novel and love titles. All of which should help nudge hardware sales in to action.

Last week's chart here.
