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.

Astebros heads to Evercade in December

Modern Mega Drive hit Astebros, only just released from Neofid Studios, has been on my radar for a while, and looks like a great fit for the Evercade roster.

Also on the way as a double-bundle are 32-bit Goodboy Galaxy, a modern Game Boy Advance title, and 8-bit Witch n’ Wiz. Both family-friendly fare. Both packs arrives in December, marking the completion of the Evercade 2023 line-up. 


Evercade's summer showcase also revealed Full Void, the company's first solo cart title, and a collection of retro-modern computer games to go alongside the console editions.
