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 Dominates in Japan, Again! Hardware and Games Charts

Once again the PSP spanked the 3DS in the Japanese weekly sales, you have to put this down to the lack of great big-name games for Nintendo's new console and the PSP enjoying a particularly rosy patch, pretty much every week sees a new big-selling game arrive, this week its BazBlue II and Amagami storming into the chart, (although nothing could match Dragon Quest for the original DS) with six PSP games in the top 10.

Anyway, onto the numbers:

01 [NDS] Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2 163,008
02 [PSP] Amagami 69,221
