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...

Vita and PlayStation TV firmware update 3.35 goes live

Grab it now for a video quality setting when using Remote Play, and support for up to four controllers for multiplayer on your PlayStation TV. The PS4 gets its own big v2.0 firmware update to bring additional features to the big console.

Frankly, if Sony feels the need to adjust video quality then it suggests that the feature is way less than perfect. Compromising on image quality isn't something that shouldn't be happening in 2014, but since the Vita's Wi-Fi hardware is probably four years old, I guess we're limited in what it can do.


That's one reason why I expect a PlayStation 4 Portable with a modern MIMO Wi-Fi part to really make remote play and HD streaming fly. Pack in a 1080p screen and all the DualShock 4's controls and it would make a credible device.
