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 ...

Will Funimation app arrive on Vita as the Danganrompa anime hits?

When the Twitch app arrived yesterday, lots of people mentioned that the Funimation app is also on the way. Think of it as a rival to Crunchyroll, which we already have the app for. I suspect they must be planning to launch it soon, as the Funimation service will be bringing the Danganronpa series (new trailer below) to western eyes, with subtitles, in the next couple of weeks.

That would make a lot of sense given the Vita is the home format for the Danganronpa games and the huge number of anime fan owners. Hope that works out, as it'd be cool to see the new series (in the UK and US at least, not sure where else Funimation serves).
