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...

Akiba's Beat rolls out the character trailers

I'm starting to hate this with games, one trailer dripping out at a time for each character, for whom there's barely any tactical variation, expect a vaguely different weapon, suitable craziness of hair and slightly different annoying squeaky voice. Latest ones at the top!

On we go, with the translated English versions from Acquire... here's Saki (or Asahi as he was in the Japanese version at the bottom - is there some alcohol advertising deal going on here?)


UPDATED: At least Yamato gets to keep his name in the latest translated trailer.

Just one more (hopefully), Mizuki Aihara


And, this week's contestant is...

And one more...

Yet another one...

UPDATE: And another one...


I know this is how Japanese PR works, but is it not possible just to shove them all in one video? Anyway, here's Riyu Momose (now forever to be known as The Marmoset). She beats people up with a pole weapon and squeaks while her pink hair wafts around.


And here's Asahi who carries a sword and has really boring hair and clothes, its like he's not even trying! Still, his headphones are glued to his skull
