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...

A Challenge to Sony on Behalf of Games Devs

Right, come on then Sony, lets see if you're really into the mindset of the modern gamer! If you're listening to the social media and if you're really after new talent! I've been playing SplitMilkStudio's Hard Lines today. It's a natural gamer's game (combining classic game play with a modern sense of character and humour that belies the dinky pixels).



It has been picking up rave reviews and I tweeted the company to see if there was a Vita version in the works. The reply from SpiltMilk's twitter is pretty much a challenge to Sony when it comes to bringing new games and talent into the Vita world:

 oh man, if only! :D If you know anyone from who could set us up with a devkit, feel free to point them at us & 

So, come on Sony, I guess dev kits are pretty scarce right around now, but how about finding one spare somewhere and getting some new and funky games going for the Vita launch. Hard Lines would work perfectly with the rear touch panel, or even just a plain old stick.
