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...

Sony puts up a PlayStation Now info page

While most of us are already comfortable with the concept of streaming gaming, Sony has put up an information and news page (for US users) where the befuddled can sign up to be kept informed of developments. The company has already listed a 5MB/s broadband requirement, which most of us hopefully exceed, but its all down to routers and your environment as to how smooth play will be in each household.


The service is focused on PS3 and PS4 games, and there's no word on when the app for the Vita will roll out. But once this wagon gets rolling, if the subscription (or per-game) price is right, it should be a huge hit and unleash a tide of nostalgia. Will it help Vita sales? the widespread of compatible devices suggests not much, but every little will help.
