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...

Vita top of Japan's most-wanted list

In a shock, but wierdly logical move (if you think about it), now that everyone in Japan owns a 3DS, the Vita is coming to the fore as the top gadget that gamers want, according to a Famitsu poll, and almost double those who want a shiny new Wii U:

PS Vita - 64.0%
3DS - 48.2%
Wii U - 33.8%
PS3 - 25.2%
PC - 14.4%
Xbox 360 - 10.6%
Smartphone - 10.0%
PSP - 9.6%
Wii - 9.0%

Take the numbers at face value, but they offer a glimpse of hope to Sony and may explain the company's reluctance for a price drop. Of course, those gamers voicing their opinion may just be waiting for that drop to happen, we'll see.
