Fellow bargain fans, it’s time to stock up again. This latest round of discounts has slashed prices on some absolute gems across Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, PS5, and PC. Let’s take a peek at the highlights before they disappear forever.
This Day in Gaming 
In historical gaming news, I’m lighting 8 candles on a cake for the Nintendo Switch, that little hybrid console that could. Back when it launched, there was a feeling that Nintendo was taking a risk with it. After the commercial failure of the Wii U, many industry analysts questioned whether the company could reclaim its dominance, especially with the comparatively diminutive tech specs they planned to compete with.
I took a leap of faith and went all in on day one. Within 5 minutes of alternating my play experience of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild from handheld to TV, it was clear that Nintendo’s gamble was going to pay off in spectacular fashion. Fast forward to now, and we find ourselves on the eve of receiving its successor (the unimaignateively titled Switch 2). I couldn’t be more excited to see what it can do.

Nice Savings for Nintendo Switch
On Nintendo Switch, Super Mario RPG ($55) is a must for nostalgia lovers, as it revives the classic SNES adventure with a fresh look. Alternatively, there’s Broforce ($4), a bombastic 4P, 2D shooter that’s all about over-the-top Hollywood heroes with ridiculous firepower.
