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...

Shoot 1UP DX (doesn't) blast the Vita

If Habroxia 2 has given you a shoot 'em up itch you need to scratch, a trophy listing for Mommy's Best Game's Shoot 1UP DX suggests you won't have to itch for long. The game orignally hit Steam in 2015, with a Switch udpate in DX form with fresh content hitting last year, heading to the Vita and PS4 soon.

UPDATE: This game and MBG's next release Explosionade DX are not coming to the Vita, they put up trophy listings as a just-in-case, but looks the games will be PS4/PS5 only. 


 Packed with big bosses, lots of power-ups and intense looking action, the game's trick is that when you pick up an extra ship you can deploy it instantly to beef up your firepower, contracting and expanding the formation to protect them. With multiple difficulty levels, 8 impressive-looking levels and a world of bullets, this looks pretty great, and got good reviews in its various versions. 

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
