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...

Another Vita firmware downgrade, 3.57 in the works

Yep, Sony continues to strip features from the Vita (and the PSTV & PS3 to be fair) at a slow crawl. This week's new firmware downdate removes support for the Facebook app - no great loss - and Facebook links. If it frees up some extra power for games, then yay! Otherwise, is there really any point?

UPDATE: Now Live, don't all rush at once!


So, carry on about your business, although it is still staggering to think that at no point did Sony think of adding the screenshot sharing as a direct feature (rather than doing it via manual labour).

Hopefully they will continue to support the Twitter app which I use a fair bit! The update hits Japan on the 20th, so may be out later today on western systems.
