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...

IA/VT Colorful gets a neat Vita bundle

Why is the Vita selling in Japan and not here? Well, if you ignore the cultural issues, its because practically any game comes with a shiny limited edition bundle, triggering the OCD collectors gene in most Japanese gamers. I mean we get the black Vita with a download code for whatever game is chucked casually in this month's "bundle."

In Japan, even something pretty niche like IA/VT Colorful comes with a stylish box, covers, cases, tags, stickers, the actual game and other goodies. I'm aware these things cost a little more, but how Sony thinks it can get away flogging the same box year-in, year-out (excluding the slim model change) is rather beyond me.
