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...

Lillymo gets to the retro point with Saint Slayer: Spear of Sacrilege


Vita owners have found memories Lillymo, along with FuturLab and a hatful of others who cut their developer chops on flinging pixels at the OLED screen. 

Now we've moved on, its good to see these companies still focused on what matters in gaming. And from the mind behind sci-fi-tinged Habroxia and Twin Breaker comes Saint Slayer: Spear of Sacrilege, a blood-drenched historical homage to the 8-bit era of horror-tinged, side-scrolling action.

Saint Slayer

In Saint Slayer, we play as the ex-soldier Rudiger, wielding the Spear of Sacrilege to save the Holy Roman Empire from the corrupt Catholic priest Father Pacer. Fighters wield spears in a Castlevania-inspired hack-and-slash adventure featuring a killer chiptune soundtrack, crunchy pixelated gore, and a relentless gothic atmosphere.


Travel through 21 handcrafted stages, alone or in 2-player co-op (with friendly fire!), and face down 7 monstrous bosses in your quest against a demonic uprising.

Saint Slayer: Spear of Sacrilege releases in early 2026 on PlayStation, Switch, Xbox, and PC via Steam, with a demo now out for the PC.
