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...

Digimon Story still a top PSN seller, so why no Next Order?

How come America is supposedly done and dusted with the Vita and Europe is considered a little stronger in support? Looking at the download charts from both regions, clearly America is more on the ball.


On the positive side, Darkest Dungeon had a decent impact on both sides of the pond, congrats to Red Hook for that. But the big question remains, if Digimon Story is still a top seller, why has Bandai not bothered bringing over Next Order? All the content is there, it only needs a small amount of effort!

  1. My theory is that BN (and other publishers of course too) want to ensure that the Vita platform is out of discussion for the future since they see no future for the Vita. Make sure people stop clamouring for Vita editions - and what better way than to quash a highly popular series with excellent sequel potential?
    I guess I'm a cynic, but that's the only angle that makes sense to me.
    Long-term strategy is what execs sweat about.
