Aye, I'm dyin' for that to come out.
I'm certain it'll arrive though, Sony asked them to do it, and are loaning them some staff to help make it, apparently.

New Kirby and Yoshi videos from the Nintendo Direct
Persona 4 Golden down to £13.50 with PS+ in the Playstation sale.
I'd say that's a ridiculous deal, and to run and get it, but it'll probably be free at some point, like every other game. 
Any decent 3DS deals going about?
I haven't looked around that much, but I visit ShopTo.net often and their deals are currently:
Black or White 3DS - £115
Red or Blue 3DS XL - £145
Gold Zelda 3DS XL (with A Link Between Worlds pre-installed) - £180
They're all pretty good prices while they're still in the sale (generally beating the average price by about 30 quid). Not sure if any websites will start pumping out deals when we're actually in January, but if they do they'll probably be more expensive deals with games thrown in (which might be of use if they are the games you wanted anyway).
If you're getting a 3DS XL, ShopTo.net sadly don't stock the chargers any more from what I can tell, so you might have to jump to GAME for one. The official Nintendo licensed ones are usually £10~ though, so not too bad.
Edit: Sainsbury's online do the official chargers for £7.99.
Also, just to save people looking, I've checked Zavvi, Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's, GAME, and Grainger Games. None of them can beat ShopTo's prices at the moment.

Amazon have the 3DS (not XL) and 3 games for £129. Each colour has three different games - link.
^ That's a good deal if you're not fussed about getting an XL instead.
If you don't like any of the games, you can just trade them in against one that you do want

Yep. Not sure how much those particular games would be worth in a trade in but better than nothing.^ That's a good deal if you're not fussed about getting an XL instead.

I'd want an XL, but don't want to pay over £130, anything over that and I'll end up buying a wii u instead
The 3DS will give you more joy than a Wii U for a fair while yet, but I don't think you'll find a new XL for £130. Have a dig around in the January sales but I think that price might be expecting a bit too much now.
Tesco had some for £125 up until about a week ago, so maybe after Christmas you'll get a good deal.
I should have bought one in Black Friday deals but couldn't justify buying it same weekend as ps4
I'd say that's a ridiculous deal, and to run and get it, but it'll probably be free at some point, like every other game.
I've already completed and sold a physical copy of it so I'm not grabbing it for money, it'll come to Plus within 6 months I imagine (likewise Dragons Crown hopefully). I wanted Soul Sacrifice a couple months ago but decided to hold off for a while, tomorrow I'm getting it for free first thing in the morning.
Wii U has nothing on 3DS, don't be foolish. Mario 3D World is fantastic but so is 3D Land, and you get dozens of incredible games with 3DS.
Sony!
I think the only actual Vita game I'll ever pay for again is Football Manager, if the bastard every arrives.

Of the current line up in the PSN Store I'm not going to pay actual money for any more games. I paid for Tearaway and Killzone lately simply because I wanted them as soon as they were out, I paid a discount price for a few games (including incredible Walking Dead) too. For games that I'd like to play someday but don't necessarily feel the rush there's PS+.
I doubt that Persona will be free for a very long time.
It probably will at some point next year or at least it is going to be discounted again. Either way I don't need it as I've already played it.
Just pointing out that it's not Sony's decision to stick it up for free, it's not their IP.
You lot are like, legal pirates... or something.
Sailors?
That's it. You're a bunch of sailors.
I finally got Bravely Default two days before Christmas, I haven't had much time to play it since Walking Dead on a Vita and Zelda on 3DS got me properly engaged but from the hour or so I've already put into it I can see it's going to be a great experience.
I managed to complete Walking Dead over Christmas, it's a bit glitchy but nonetheless a great game, far better than I expected and it was €8 well spent - in fact I'd recommend paying full price for it unless you prefer it on a big screen, it has one of the best and most engaging storylines I've seen in a video game and is really touching.
I got myself down to playing Zelda eventually, I was a bit scared of it as I expected it to be extremely difficult but it's been very enjoyable so far. I've managed to get myself to Lorule and have completed one dungeon there even, i''s not been as difficult as I imagined and gameplay is frankly fantastic. I actually like how it's not linear and doesn't give you hints what you should be doing next, it's open world at its finest. I find it difficult to put my 3DS down, it's so good.

Bravely Default is incredibly difficult, by the way. I would suggest taking plenty of time out in each area to level your characters when you have all four of them. I did this and even still found the bosses difficult so far. Difficult to get to grips with and understand all the battle options, but rewarding when you progress. I've only managed to find time for about 10 hours so far, but I've only defeated what seems to be one major boss and one of the side quest ones.
I got Ocarina of Time, A Link Between Worlds and Fire Emblem for Christmas. Only had about 15 mins on Fire Emblem so far but i really liked what i saw, looks to be a charming game!
I also got Soul Sacrifice for free on PS + the other day and played an hour or so. Found it very enjoyable so far!

Persona 4 back to full price. Gutted I missed it
That's it. You're a bunch of sailors.
I paid for my ticket to board the cruise ship!
Sweet collection of games!
I missed Soul Sacrifice, disappointing, really wanted to play it.

Yeah i've got plenty to go at now!
Awww, SS is really cool actually! I really enjoyed the hour or so i played of it, an interesting story too!
I'm still only playing FM, pure addiction.
Have the new Zelda, Bravely Default, Guacamelee, Tearaway, GTA Liberty City Stories, want to pick up Rainbow Moon too, and YS in the new year, all to play, yet I keep faffing about with Norwich....
Hold the phone! Soul Sacrifice is still free, just not showing up on my PS+ list....
Downloading.

Yeah it wasn't on my PS+ list either, i had to go search for it manually.
That's what I done, just on the off(aaawn!) chance...
You can get a 3DS XL at Tesco for £125 again - http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/nin...ect-125-for-new-customers-with-coupon-1769590
It has it's own kind, but you can pick them up for a couple of bucks most places.

That's your standard 3DS Charger, £9.99 isn't much of a hit and if you find it cheaper it'd likely only be by a couple of quid.

Few more questions, how much are games on the eshop? Games like the new Zelda etc.. And how much space do they take up?
