Festive portable deals take off from Xbox Ally, Nintendo, PlayStation and Evercade

This page started for black Friday but has moved on as the deals come and go. I will update across the festive sales, as new portable hardware deals appear. I won't hype them as "pocket change" or "fire sale" like some sites, because that's bollocks.  December deals :  Evercade has 30% off various hardware, depending on the store, check the blog for details .  PlayStation Portal is currently £20 off on Amazon UK  (another £10 off for refurbs)  Update: Valve has jumped in with 20% off the Steam Deck LCD 256GB model (down to £279 in the UK) Update: Xbox Ally has various deals (pretty short-lived, but likely getting cut again for the post Christmas sale).  Update: PlayStation Portal has £20 off the range, bringing the white and black models down to £179, and 30th Anniversary Edition to £189. (Look out for another 5% off at checkout!)  First up is  Evercade offering a clutch of offers on hardware and games on Amazon and across other stores in Europ...

PSP Update Live, Yay! PSN Store Next Week, Boo!

So, the PSP's long awaited update is finally here. When installed it tells you to use your PS3 (why do Sony always assume PSP owners will have a PS3?) or PC to log in and change your password.



The bad news is that this is Sony is now saying the store won't be up until the end of the month AKA next Tuesday, blaming speculation for the stories about the store coming back today. Fairly sure Sony mentioned the 24th somewhere, but hey what's another week after this mayhem?

Once you enter your existing details on the site, you get the same message that PS3 users have suffered with, that an email will be sent to your account within 24 hours. We'll see how long that takes.

[UPDATE] - Yay, only took about ten minutes. You then go through the password reset system and can then update your card details (because you did cancel yours like a careful consumer didn't you?). Now, there is just the wait until the store comes back up... before it instantly crashes again under the demand.
