Portable post-Black Friday deals take off from Xbox Ally, Nintendo, PlayStation and Evercade

 While there's no sign of a discount on the PlayStation Portal or Xbox Ally, portable gamers can still get in on the Black Friday action. From handheld PC gaming devices to Nintendo, there's plenty on offer.  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 gettting 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 Europe and US markets.  Not all deals have kicked in yet, but the official list is:  Up to 30% off all cartridges released before September 2025 20% off all hardware released before September 2025 US and Canada to receive 20% off all lines released...

Danganronpa 2 murders the UK Vita chart

Charts all over the place as the PSN, boxed copy and Amazon charts roll across my screens. Disgaea 4 managed just a week at the top, as Monakuma jumps to the top of the UK retail chart and asserts his manic dominance.

I'll have a review up soon, but it really is worth investing your money and time in. It doesn't manage to dent the all formats which suggests Vita sales really are still minuscule.

UPDATE: Hang on a sec, now the longer full all-formats chart listing is out, I see Danganronpa 2 made it in at No. 29! Heroic stuff, little bear, and it actually reached 21 in the full-price chart.

1 new DANGANRONPA 2: GOODBYE DESPAIR NIS AMERICA - 1
2 KILLZONE: MERCENARY SONY. 4 53
3 FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 HD REMASTER SQUARE ENIX 2 25
4 BORDERLANDS 2 2K GAMES 3 15
5 DISGAEA 4: A PROMISE REVISITED NIS AMERICA 1 2

Over on Amazon, the live chart sees Minecraft still at No. 1 awaiting a release date while Freedom Wars is jockeying around with Danganronpa for the 2/3 spot. The next major releases are Natural Doctrine and another crappy FIFA update.

Guess Tales of Hearts is probably the biggest release by fan base) for the Vita this year. That's due in November, but with all the mega releases happening around then, I guess it could easily be overlooked.



UPDATED: Sony has just put up the PSN charts for August, with the Vita's big sellers. In Europe, we picked up...

1 Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment (New)
2 Assassin’s Creed III Liberation (5)
3 Rogue Legacy (New)
4 Soul Sacrifice Delta (19)
5 The Walking Dead: Season Two (2)

While the US gorged on...

1 Sword Art Online -Hollow Fragment-
2 God of War: Collection PS Vita
3 Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z
4 Rogue Legacy
5 FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 HD Remaster
