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...

Japanese games sales Monster Hunted to death, PSP nears 20 million units

Here's the latest Media Create sales out of Japan and as the whole nation is apparently out Monster Hunting, no one could be bothered to go out. Still, another near half-million picked up the game as Capcom started to restock and the Vita gets a surprise No. 2 in the guise of what I think is a romantic visual novel "I'm in the Wrong Game Again!" or "Yahari Game Demo Ore no Seishun Love-Kome Hamachi Gatteiru" selling a piffling 16,500 with some more quirky PSP titles at the back of the top 10.


01./01. [3DS] Monster Hunter 4 # (Capcom)  473.739 / 2.188.799 (-72%)
02./00. [PSV] Yahari Game Demo Ore no Seishun Love Kome Hamachi Gatteiru. (5pb.) 16.469 / NEW

...
10./00. [PSP] La Corda d'Oro 3: Full Voice Special # (Koei Tecmo) 7.062 / NEW
11./03. [PSP] Brothers Conflict: Brilliant Blue # (Idea Factory)  6.865 / 22.162 (-55%)


Vita sales continue to slide, down to 5,100 as gamers wait for the new models (I and Sony hope), only a few ahead of the venerable PSP. The old stager should hit 20 million sales in Japan next week, surely worthy of some celebration Sony?
