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...

Earth Defense Force 2017 comes with a price shock

Yep, the Vita is short of big-name games, so us beggars can't really be choosers. But most of the comments I'm seeing are rather surprised about the £32 being asked for the new D3's EDF game out tomorrow. That's compared to Orgarhythm which should about £10-12 and Sumioni which is going for £8.

FYI, the U.S. version went on-sale last week for $39.99 which is around £25, anyone thinking this isn't a bit of a rip off is probably not alone.


Blame Namco for the pricing, but since there's no sign of a store release, looks like you'll have to either wait until the price comes down or bite the bullet on this one. Also, bet we don't even get the handy Japanese combo bundle to encourage multiplayer gaming.
