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 E1000 model now on sale, £5 off at Amazon

The budget version of the PSP is now available, not that I'd noticed Sony marketing it anywhere. Its available from Amazon with an extra £5 off at £85. With the full-spec 3000 model still selling for £155, and most other models sold out, it looks like the best way to get hold of a new PSP.



That is, if you (or the small child you're buying it for) can live with the lack of Wi-Fi. I've always downloaded my games directly to the PSP but if you were new to the game, doing it through the PC isn't too much hassle. But the big question is, is Sony going to market this thing, (UPDATE - A tweet informs me that it was all over the back of London's free Metro newspaper for a week) and if so where - its been practically invisible since the announcement! Perhaps the company is holding off until after the fuss of the iPhone 4S launch? That is expected to sell 4 million units in just one day - Sony can only dream.
