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.

Golden Week Vita sales hit 5.5K in Japan

Golden Week definitely isn't what it used to be for hardware sales in Japan, but this year it managed to give the Vita a healthy spike to 5,500 units.

In the Media Create chart, Konami's Powerful Pro Baseball 2018 is still the only Vita game in town, shifting 15,867 copies last week to move to a healthy 74,303 overall.


Next up are the Persona 3 and 5 Dancing Moon/Star Night games at the end of the month which should make a healthy impression on the chart.
