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 sales clinging on to respectability in Japan

This week saw no big game releases, and the Vita's hardware sales slid to just under 10,000 according to Media Create, nudged back into 5-figures by some 600 defiant Vita TV sales.

Perhaps those Vita TV sales will rise as more Japanese gamers hear about the crazy GameTech device that adds a 7-inch screen and four triggers to make a super-Vita. Overall Vita remains just ahead of PS4 in Japan on weekly sales, but now needs big sales from Phantasy Star Nova bundles and the pink edition Vita to match or beat least year's solid end of year run.
