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...

Japan gets Radioko, a Vita radio app

While Europe still clings on in the hope of a Netflix app, Japan is rolling out a new Radioko app to allow Vita owners over there to stream live radio, with live Twitter feeds to add some interactivity. It looks pretty feature-packed for a radio app, perhaps we'll see a version in 2014, given the slow pace of apps arriving here (Wake-Up Club being the last memorable one).



While Sony Europe is doing an ace job driving indie games, which are pretty key to the Vita's survival, it'd be good to know if someone in the company was pushing for regular apps to make the handheld as essential as an iOS device.
