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...

Sunflowers hitting PS Vita this week

Game Atelier launches the brightest looking Vita game yet with Sunflowers out this week on (I'm assuming the EU) PSN which, alongside the free Ecolibrium, makes this week a pretty good one. The deceptively simple looking flower raising game should be a perfect reminder of summer, if you had one, as winter draws on.

It will be available as a trial version and plays with the Vita held upright. More information on the game here. Hopefully the price will be similar to the iOS version which releases around the same time, and not some Plants vs. Zombies-like overpricing madness.

UPDATE: The price is a lovely €2.99 for two worlds and 330 flowers, guess there will be some DLC too. Also, a US PSN release will be announced soon.


Game Atelier brought Flying Hamster to the PSP as a mini and its next game, Gauge, will be for iOS, hopefully if Sunflowers does well on Vita, the team will continue to support it.

    Zen Pinball 2 also uses vertical mode as an option, but this is the first portrait-only game I can think of, unless there are some old-school Japanese shooters out there.
