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 ...

NIS America to stream its 17 Feb press event

NIS America's press events have usually happened behind closed doors, but for the first time, they will be streaming the event over Twitch. While the company's focus is very much moving to PC, Switch and other formats, there's still room for a little Vita love from the stalwarts of the portable gaming scene.

Promised for the upcoming event are five new games, plus appearances from SUDA51 and Kazutaka Kodaka. Hopefully we'll get some news on Exile Election (Tsuihou Senkyo) as that's the latest Nippon Ichi Vita game out in Japan.

While NISA may be looking at other formats, it has a huge legacy list of PSP titles and other games that are worth updating, with the Vita an easy platform to handle them.
