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 the goal is to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners, something that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   The recent February  PlayStation State of Play  saw no announcement. But, PlayStation needs to make Portal more a core member of the PS5 family, rather than the distant cousin that most of its appearances suggest.  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 coo...

Hidden Trap presents the Retro Pixel Set

As the Vita approaches the end of the end, the natural move for publishers and developers is to release bundles and compilations to move older games to the front of the store (if the Vita store ever gets updated again). Hidden Trap has taken the leap with a collection of pixel hits in the Retro Pixel Set, including: Ice Cream Surfer, A Hole New World, Dungeon Plus and Ghoul Boy with Super Skelemania for PS4 owners.


It is out now on EU PSN (can't see it on the Vita store but is on the web version) for £15.49 with a US release on the 28th January. These games are relatively recent releases, hope a few more publishers go this route, and we soon see some of the older Vita games from way back making a comeback (look at all the sports and smaller arcade titles from 2012/13 that deserve some fresh love).

What would you like to see reignite some interest? I'd still love to play PSP GripShift again, Pure Chess and Hustle Kings Pool, and perhaps DLC complete versions of MotorStorm RC, Ragnarok or Ridge Racer?
