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...

Ayaneo Pocket EVO steps up portable gaming

Is this the closest we will ever get to a PS Vita 2? Ayaneo's new Pocket EVO is a beast of a handheld with a 7-inch 120Hz OLED screen, dual sticks, a beast of a Gen3X Gen 2 SoC from Qualcomm and everything we need to play emulated PSP and Vita games on the go (other platforms are available). 

Ayaneo Pocket Evo

This Android beast is an evolution of the Pocket S, and while there will be more powerful models to come, there is literally no reason to look beyond the EVO as something for modern and retro gaming in a near-perfect platform. 

At the other end of the spectrum to the recently revealed budget-but-loveable Anbernic RG40XX, the EVO packs in a big battery to drive all the tech, and has plenty of other features handily explained in the image below (yes, Ayaneo marketing is getting better too!) 


Yes, players moan about the Ayaneo brand just like any other, but this looks like the full stop in gaming for retro players, depending on the soon-to-be-announced price and availability.
