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.

Rare Super Pocket Adds More Banjo for your Buck

I'm loving Evercade's Rare Collection 1 with the joys of Jet Pac, the hectic challenge of Knightlore and RC Pro Am Racing, but the brand has gone a little further with the vibrant red and blue Rare Super Pocket handheld. 

The HyperMegaTech range expands with the new model offering the 64-bit Banjo Kazooie, RC Pro AM II, Battletoads in Battlemaniacs and Snake Rattle and Roll plus Solar Jetman, so a fair few new titles to tempt those of us who own the cart. 

Also, presumably, there's a second Rare collection cartridge on the way for those who aren't into the dinky handhelds. The new Rare model will ship in June for around £50, and who knows what else is on the way from the British legends. 


Check out the video for the games in action, and the official tweet comments for what's going on with some possibly misused art or version of Banjo... will update when there's official word.
