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.

Towerfall Ascension rises to the Vita this week

Just a whole year after its PS4 release (trailered), and longer since the PC original, here comes Towerfall Ascension to the Vita. A battling retro arcade game, that sees brave knights, wizards and thieves try to rescue a kingdom from evil.

UPDATE: Finally, the game now has a confirmed June 16 release date - better late than never!

It looks fun, with intense battles over a single screen and a strong focus on accurate archery. However, given I'm having to squint a bit playing Bastion on the Vita's small screen, I can only hope there is a decent smart zoom function to keep things in perspective. Also hope it maintains the local player fun feel that the original aimed to capture.
