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 holds steady in Japan as zombies invade Neptunia

The Vita continues its run of tracking above previous years' sales suggesting that things are looking slightly (really, very slightly) up. That can only be thanks to the new Neptunia game crashing into the top 5, while Minecraft and Tokyo Xanadu continue to sell reasonably.

01./00. [3DS] 7th Dragon III Code: VFD (Sega)  - 72.477 / NEW
02./01. [3DS] Yo-Kai Watch Busters:  (Level 5)- 26.512 / 1.654.171 (-6%)
03./04. [WIU] Super Mario Maker # (Nintendo)  - 21.357 / 321.222 (-13%)
04./00. [PSV] Blanc + Hyperdimension Neptunia Vs. Zombie (Compile Heart) - 19.990 / NEW
...
09./16. [PSV] Minecraft: PlayStation Vita Edition (Sony)  - 8.544 / 367.716 (+13%)
...
12./07. [PSV] Tokyo Xanadu # (Nihon Falcom) {2015.09.30} (¥6.998) - 7.627 / 112.041 (-51%)


Hardware-wise, the Vita now has five weeks in a row tracking above last year, selling another 15,000+ units this week. It isn't huge, but it will keep the portable going into 2016. Week 44 should be the big one with God Eater Ressurection and Yomawari selling well.
