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...

Avengers beats Legend of Heroes in UK Vita chart battle

Yep, two actual retail games came out for the Vita last week, prompting something of an upheaval at the top of the UK chart.


Lego Marvel Avengers grabbed the Vita chart number one spot. As you'd expect, the bunch of super heroes should beat down a group of grumpy, status obsessed, students in any battle. However, Legend of Heroes Trails of Cold Steel (Review) comes a creditable second.

The available on every device imaginable Avengers hits the No. 1 spot in the all-formats chart too, but Vita exclusive Legend of Heroes also manages to creep in at No. 38 in the Full Price chart.

Borderlands 2 seems to have had a good run in recent weeks, dragging it back into the top five, while the usual suspects still lurk.

1. Lego Marvel Avengers Warner
2. LoH: Trails of Cold Steel Falcom
3. Minecraft 4J Studios
4. Borderlands 2 Iron Galaxy
5. FIFA 15 EA Sports.

The Amazon Top Sellers looks pretty similar, but with Persona 4 Golden in the top instead of Borderlands, showing the enduring quality of the game.
