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 ...

Between TGS and PSEx we should see Gravity Rush 2 soon, right?

Tokyo Game Show is looming on the calendar in mid-September. Now, we have Sony's PlayStation Experience event taking place in San Francisco later in the year, Dec 5/6, Between the two of them, and recent talk of game testing and other hints, surely we get to see Gravity Rush 2 this year?

Gravity Rush 2 has likely been in development since the Project Siren team (now Team Gravity) finished up on the Vita original, they certainly haven't released anything else, but could have been helping out on other projects.

They team released a sneaky art video in late 2013, but things soon went quiet.

Since then, it seems there's been a logical focus on a PS4 version, plus a remaster of the original for that platform. It was only in summer this year that Sony confessed to waiting for the right time to unveil the game.

What else might Sony have tucked away for Vita? We know all focus has gone to the PS4 but there's a faint hope that the company's teams have had time for one or two projects.
