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...

Sony Vita To Launch In Europe in 2012?

UK mag CVG, so blame that messenger, has a retail source saying that Sony Vita will launch in January or February in 2012. Even worse for PSV is that news that the PS3 will be getting a sub-£200 price making it cheaper (heck, I'll get one just for a Blu-ray player).

Fair enough, it was always going to be tough for Sony to hit this year, given the earthquake and massive demands from tablets and phones for RAM and chips, but missing Christmas and making PS3 cheaper could throw several barriers in the way of the PSV's success. Amazon US is still showing a 31 December release date, perhaps Japan will be the only ones (not) celebrating Christmas with a shiny new toy.
