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...

Xperia Play Now Even Cheaper

After a rash of price reductions a few months ago, Sony Ericcson's Experia Play has had another haircut and is now looking rather a bargain, at just £199 SIM Free. Thanks to PocketGamer for the spot. Given that the market is about to go up a notch with iPhone 5 launch, this could give the phone a further nudge, but given Sony's lack of direction with the phone, its weak line-up of PS One games and dragging PlayStation Suite, it really needs to get a move or be consigned to history in this fast moving market.



Which will be a shame as I enjoyed my brief time with one, but think it is being strangled by poor support in the areas that it was supposed to be unique in. Still, as long as there's life in it, and SE has the budget to keep going with it, then there's hope, but I reckon the XPII will be the way forward. Its out of stock at the moment, with new supplies due in next Friday if you want to grab one.
