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...

Persona 4 Golden reviews have the right stuff

All the excitement might be about the shiny new games for the Vita out last and this week, but its a remake of a rather old game that could be the best thing that ever happens on the handheld.

Atlus' western conversion of the hit Japanese game is racking up scores that Need for Speed, AC3 Liberation and Black Ops Declassified (don't expect scores for that one until some time after release, but its not looking too shabby) could probably only dream of.

Destructoid 10/10
RPGFan 96%|
GamrReview 9.2/10

There's an good read on the rise of Persona in the west here. The only pisser is the game isn't out in Europe until next year, leaving us with the choice of importing or tapping our watches (well, smartphone lockscreens) until the game turns up here. Interestingly its Virtue's Last Reward that has the best average scores of recent Vita games, with 89%, so perhaps big name games isn't the way to go this season.
