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.

Smach Z handheld hits Kickstarter again, races toward goal

I talked about the Smach Z last year when its Kickstarter was cancelled as the creators considered their options.

While we can argue all day about the games coming to it, and the potential for emulators and piracy, and so on. The huge interest on day 1, $200K of its $250K main goal shows there's plenty of interest in portable gaming, if a company is brave enough to find the market!

Check out the new campaign and imagine a Vita 2 with these innards!

UPDATE: The campaign has passed its first funding goal!
