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...

Apple TV 4 and Kindle Fire 4K about to kick PSTV in history

Whatever the big reason was behind the launch of the Vita TV, aka PlayStation TV, it is clear Sony has left it to rot like the Vita. Only third-party support keeps either going, and now the PS TV will soon look like a relic from a bygone age.


The practical reasons to own a PlayStation TV now appear to be PS4 remote play on another screen, or some big screen Vita nostalgia. Apple's fourth generation TV and Amazon's new Fire TV are ramping up the power with new full HD, and perhaps even 4K devices - with games to match.

Sony shows no sign of upgrading the Vita TV, leaving the casual consumer to wonder why it has bargain bucket pricing and next to no support. With negligible sales, it looks like the PSTV will die off long before the Vita itself.

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
