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...

Meet SteamBoy, the portable PC games machine

Ooh, this looks like bad news. But before you panic, Steam boxes seem like a good idea, but none are actually on-sale yet, and most PC gamers are probably gaming happily on their laptops or phones when travelling. Why add another gadget? Assuming this concept ever sees the light of day.

Still, if this has any PC power inside it at all (specs are unknown besides something quad-core) it could easily be great emulator machine and throw open an arcade-style challenge to Sony's handheld. After all, Steam has a massive library of big-name games and pretty much every indie under the sun (except TxK), and open-sourcers could have a field day hacking it to pieces. Keep your eyes peeled for this in 2015, apparently.
