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...

PSP Dog Days Sales Looking Good

As the PSP enters the dog days of its life, it has just had a might kick with the launch of Monster Hunter Portable 3 in Japan. Even the PSPGo is selling 5,000 a week, up from its usual 1,000+. And with 3rd Birthday selling 14o,000 copies in its first week, a PSP dating game selling 250,000, it looks like there is plenty of life for it back home.

Over in the west, well, the sooner we get the PSP2, the better. A bigger, better, store, more relevant games and some decent marketing cannot come soon enough. You just have to hope that Sony Japan sees the weakness over here and gets a wiggle on, not basking in its success back home - this could be the one advantage of having a westerner in charge of Sony!
