Portable post-Black Friday deals take off from Xbox Ally, Nintendo, PlayStation and Evercade

 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...

Funk up your portable life with OneX Sugar Dual-screen transformer

Yet another Indiegogo crowdfunding effort is on the way to lure portable gamers into a funky new gadget. This time, OneXSugar's Sugar 1 boasts a Snapdragon G3 Gen 3 chip-powered dual-screen design with a slick transforming mode to access the big screen or configure it how you want. 

I'm not sure how anyone can "Enjoy 28% faster GPU and 30% faster CPU" when playing SNES and PSP games. But that's one of the claims, although its mainly the dual-screen design I'm interested in. 

The specs include WiFi 7 and an 8-core Kryo CPU, backed an Adreno A32 GPU. But the main draw has to be the 6.01-inch main screen and a 3.92-inch secondary screen for 3DS-style modes.


Having looked at the video, I'm deeply sceptical about the mechanisms and long-term reliability for the hinges. Anyway, you can sign up now to save 30% on whatever the final price is, and I'm betting this will be a huge seller in Japan, but less likely to make waves over here.
