@Rambler Looking at past Ubisoft games, they had similar first sales within the same short period in US and UK. I wouldn't be surprised if you got a sale within a week.

@CRB1984 Currently 40% off on the (UK) Xbox store, so I don't think it will be long before the UK Switch version gets a similar discount.

Ubisoft's one of those know for discounting games to kingdom come quite early on, isn't it?

Yeah, Ubisoft often throws out the 30 or 40% sales quite early and if you wait long enough that goes to 60 or 70 or sometimes even higher. But for such a good game that already started out below AAA prices, 40% off seems like a good buying point for Prince of Persia. I just snagged it myself.

I just saw that Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is currently 40% off on the eShop until April 1st! I’ve had my eye on this game since it dropped so I might finally grab it!

Big thanks to @FishyS for pointing me to this thread!

It isn't in the UK, so I'm assuming you mean the deal is available in the US?

there is your UK sale. 😃

UK Guy here - got PoP for ~24 £GBP from Amazon.... and I am loving it.

A really really slick Metroidvania, great boss fights and beautiful visuals. 60FPS on Switch, few stutters but nothing jarring

High recommend

Steins; Gate - My Darling's Embrace is only about £1 for another hour if you buy from the Swiss eshop.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

@gcunit That's crazy. It's on sale in NA also but for $12?

@FishyS Sure is. Love a nonsensical eshop deal me, and that one is right up there. Couldn't see any other obviously low prices on the Swiss eshop, but that one was there, for who-knows-what-reason.

Sonic Origins is $15, its lowest price. But that's the non-plus version. Do people think it's worth it? I already have multiple ways to play Sonic 1 and 2...

A while ago I googled for lists of the best Sega Genesis games. I looked for long lists each at least 50 games long, that were ranked. I assigned points based on rank and added them all up. I was left with 16 lists, 396 unique games and 1,465 total entries.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles ended up the #2 best Sega Genesis game
Sonic CD ended up #68

Plus is mostly just for suckers for DLC like me.
Game Gear games? I'll never play those.
But having characters Knuckles and Amy available in other games is kinda cool. I don't think anyone anywhere would call it essential though.

Target and Walmart both were running some things on sale I thought I would mention.

Target Circle Deal: $34.99 price on select Nintendo Switch games
Valid in stores and online
Expires Jul 13

Here is the list of games:

  • Kirby and the Forgotten Land - Nintendo Switch
  • The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
  • Pikmin 4
  • New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe
  • Super Mario Odyssey
  • Splatoon 3
  • Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
  • Yoshi's Crafted World

Pikmin is a definite standout, that game isn't on sale very often and this is the cheapest price it has been at least so far. There was a buy two get one free sale at target as well, if you were interested in any games from other consoles. There was no Switch games as apart of that though not even 3rd party which is weird.

Walmart had a few games/bundles on sale.

  • Super Mario Party™ + Red & Blue Joy-Con™ Bundle - $69
  • Nintendo Switch™ Lite (Timmy & Tommy’s Aloha Edition) Animal Crossing™: New Horizons Bundle (Full Game Download Included) - $159
  • Super Mario Maker 2 - $29.99
  • Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - $29.99 (This one was available, but is out stock when I checked again. May come back in stock.)
  • The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild $29.99

Dadish 3D is 80% off. I know a few people around here enjoy the 2D Dadish games.

All the Mega Man games/collections on Switch also appear to be 50-70% off.
