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.

Vita and God Eater set for a good week in Japan

01./00. [PSV] God Eater: Resurrection (Bandai)
02./00. [PS4] God Eater: Resurrection (Bandai)
03./01. [3DS] The Legend of Zelda: TriForce Heroes (Nintendo)
04./00. [PSV] Yomawari (NIS)
05./03. [3DS] 7th Dragon III Code: VFD (Sega)

 God Eater 2 on PSP/Vita sold over 630,000 for Namco in 2013. God Eater 2 Rage Burst sold 275,000 on launch across PS4 and Vita earlier this year and ended up at over 400K. I suspect this remake won't go that high, and probably won't do much for hardware sales, but any boost would be good. 

 Lots of players are putting up |YouTube videos of the game in action, here's just one example.
