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...

Tecmo Koei merging with Gust

Both brands have provided a lot of decent Vita games, so this could be good news. Tecmo has helped publish Gust's games over here, so the two have a firm relationship. Gust has given us the Atelier and Surge series, while Tecmo produces pretty much any game with a pummeling stick or sword as part of the line up including Toukiden, Dynasty Warriors and others.



The merger will be effective from the 1st October and will see Gust become a brand and studio within Tecmo. The release promises that Gust will be able to expand its existing series, create new IP and bring them to a broader audience. Hopefully we'll get boxed copies of Gust games, rather than Europe's diet of PSN only releases.

You can currently pick up Atelier Meruru Plus and Atelier Totori Plus on the UK PSN, both at over £30, hopefully those prices will come down in the near future.
