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...

Labyrinth of Grisaia visual novel trilogy could come west

Sekai' Projects' The Labyrinth of Grisaia is coming to PSP and the Vita in Japan next year, but it could also land in the west if this upcoming Kickstarter campaign is successful. The visual novel game, originally on PC, is set in a girl's school where the very first male student has just arrived, causing all sorts of shenanigans.

Certainly, one of the girls has access to a sniper rifle so I'm guessing lover's tiffs are high on the agenda. It is based on an anime currently on Crunchroll, and the game needs $40,000 per episode, with the plan being to get the whole trilogy translated, with physical copies as part of the plan.

This is a neat use of Kickstarter, and I'd like to see more western devs get support for Vita versions this way, beyond the usual indie projects. Seems like the only route left for moderate projects.
