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...

PS Vita sales rise in Japan on new colours and Assassin's Creed 3 Liberation

The new colour editions of the PS Vita have given it a useful boost in Japan with the sales of 13,091, beating out the PSP's 12,217 according to Media Create figures. Even combined that's less than a quarter of this week's 3DS sales, just for perspective.



The new Sapphire Blue model and a red unit were helped by the arrival of Assassin's Creed 3 Liberation which sold almost 25,000 copies, not bad for a western game in Japan. The Vita was down to under 5,000 last week, and will probably by back in four-digit figures next week, but every little helps!
