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...

Fate Extella tops UK Vita retail chart

The UK chart finally sees some action after the seasonal sales start to drift. Marvelous manage to grab the top spot in a battle with Koei as Fate/Extella (review) outsells the latest Atelier offering. Neither game manages to dent the all-formats charts, but presumably the publishers are still making enough money to make retail versions worthwhile.


Note that these figure won't include any limited editions from the publisher's own online stores, which is where the majority of sales could come from, given the niche nature of the Vita market.

1. Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star (Marvelous)
2. Atelier Shallie Plus (Gust)
3. Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens (TT)
4. Lego Marvel Avengers (TT)
5. Mincraft PlayStation Edition (4J Studios)

Over on Amazon UK's chart, we have the usual mix of new titles and sales madness. What's kind of odd, is that Amazon's sales are incorporated in the official Chart Track data above, and you'd imagine would dominate over regular retailers like GAME, Argos and the few larger online retailers that still stock Vita titles.

1. Need for Speed Most Wanted (Criterion)
2. Call of Duty Black Ops Declassified (Activision)
3. LittleBigPlanet (Sony)
4. Valkyrie Drive (PQube)
5. Corpse Party Blood Drive (Marvelous)
6. Steins Gate 0 (PQube)
7. Atelier Shallie Plus (Gust)
8. Assassin's Creed III Liberation (Ubisoft)
9. Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star (Marvelous)
10. Persona 4 Golden (Atlus)
