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 ...

Pick up a Battle Axe on Kickstarter

Somehow missed Battle Axe until now, but its nearing a successful Kickstarter campaign with a couple of weeks to go. Inspired by Gauntlet, it is developed and designed by Henk Nieborg who worked on the graphics for Xeno Crisis and many others, and anything that's a bit Gauntlet has to be good in my books.

Switch is the lead platform, with a physical version promised. Delivery should be around the end of the year, with the game currently in alpha. Hopefully there's some nods to the original games in there, every time I hear "Red Wizard shot the food" I still get a nostalgic pang of guilt!

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
