 While there's no sign of a discount on the PlayStation Portal or Xbox Ally, portable gamers can still get in on the Black Friday action. From handheld PC gaming devices to Nintendo, there's plenty on offer.  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 gettting 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 Europe and US markets.  Not all deals have kicked in yet, but the official list is:  Up to 30% off all cartridges released before September 2025 20% off all hardware released before September 2025 US and Canada to receive 20% off all lines released...

Super Pocket Atari edition goes woody

 The fun factor continues to play a big part in Evercade styling with a new Super Pocket saluting Atari's early days. Not only is there a fabulous-looking wood-effect limited edition (2,600 units only). The Super Pocket Special Edition console features a special edition box and packs-in 50 Atari classics from the arcade, 2600, 5200, 7800, and Lynx eras.

Atari Super Pocket

Titles include Miner 2049'er, Yars Revenge, Crystal Castles, Tempest, Food Fight and many more. Although, every time one of these collections pops up, I'm sobbing inside at the lack of Activision games, someone really needs to sort this out! 

 There's also a regular Atari model, in black and red, plus a Technos collection going heavy on the beat 'em ups featuring the Double Dragon games,  River City Ransom, Renegade, Crash 'N the Boys among other brawlers

Super Pocket retro

These arrivals will soon make it four Super Pockets, all eminently collectable, alongside the original Taito and Capcom models still available and providing entry to the full Evercade cart range through the cart slot on the rear. 

Pre-orders start at the end of July for the regular models, with the Limited Atari Edition up for grabs now. Everything ships in October.
