Not bad, I have everything I want from this list though
This is one sick sale... wish there were more 3DS sales though. Specifically one for Bloodstained on 3DS, and maybe like... Kirby Robobot and a few others. Anyway, probably picking up Devil May Cry and Wargroove, even though I’d much rather them physically, especially the latter!
Is this about to come? I'm checking the eshop right now but there is not one game on sale of this list.
What a deal on Arms, It’s the greatest fighting game ever!
Got a bounce!
Springman.
No no kuni and Mario Kart...sweet deal.
Never
ever
we will be gifted a Slay the Spire discount
never
Of course, I just bought Sayonara Wild Hearts for full price a week and half ago, lol
Wish oot 3d was on sale. I've played thru oot many times but I lost my oot 3d cartridge. Too bad. I prefer the remake over the original personally. Just finished the original on the wii again
Still no MUA 3 or Dragon Quest 11 sale.... weird.
Hmmm...might be time to play as Shantae in Blaster Master Zero.
Yoshi was $1 digital at Target online yesterday.
I wish these types of sales were spaced out a little more. We've had black Friday, chrismtas and now new years sales which consist of pretty much the same games, but some new ones are tossed in. Problem is I've spent so much lately on sales that I'm tapped out. I would've bought a couple of these had they come in a few months
Hmm...50% off of Gris. Might have to jump on that. I'm also tempted by the Mario + Rabbids discount, but I'm not desperate for it and would rather get the game physically anyway.
I'm trying to pare down my backlog, but any more of these sales are going to make that difficult.
Edit: Now I'm considering Donut County too. Please send help.
Thank God this ends after I get my paycheck! I might pick up Shantae and the Pirate's Curse.
yay, i was totally waiting on Stardew Valley to go on sale
Some great deals here!!
Too much to choose from. Will have to think about it.
Gris and Super Bomberman R shall be mine!
Worth mentioning that Dead Cells isn't actually showing up on sale.
The Witcher 3 at $35 is a steal
Yay Neo Cab! Been wanting to pick this up!
Does Sonic Racing have online? And is that online now dead?
Divinity worth picking up?
I might get Stranger Things 3: The Game.
The faster Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons sells, the faster I'm gonna build my ship to get off this God-forsaken planet.
@ChromaticDracula There are a ton more 3DS games on sale than those listed in the article.
well here is one thing, they need to put more 3ds games on sale.
@ChromaticDracula
Bloodstain is also on sale for 3DS
@Tyranexx
I haven't finished Gris yet because I keep restarting.
I don't want it to end.
@xpownz
Only 20%
I didn't see Fe listed
Its 75% off!!!
The lowest its ever being
@Tyranexx
I got Mario + Rabbids: Gold Edition
It is also on sale for an extra $5 includes all DLC
Donut County does not fully convince me
@jamesthemagi it is?! Oh nice!! I have it on Switch but really feel like I need it on 3DS alongside my castlevania collection. You know how it is. Thanks!
I think I am going to get Luigi's Mansion for the 3DS.
Find it hard to buy discounted games that still cost double the price they are sold on PS4. It is obvious, if I wait a little longer, people like capcom will reduce them to the point they have already done on other platforms. I can't buy them on PS4 either because I want them on Switch, which is the best place to play many multiplatform Indies or old capcom games, portable. I won't pay extra for one of these games on switch like this because they didn't need optimization like Witcher 3, and it was Nintendo that made the game portable, I don't pay extra to play a pc game on a laptop. I end up buying them on neither platform and hoping the next sale has a bit more parity. Maybe I'll play Hyper light drifter and the resident evil games in 2021. Funny thing is, I can afford them, it's just that the price difference seems so unfair, I feel like the games are overpriced for what they are- the opposite effect that is intended by a sale. If there were no sales on either console, I would have purchased hyper light drifter already.
Some great titles on this list. Most of the ones I would want, I have, but I might finally nab Star Wars.
@Moistnado When I can take my PS4 with me like my Switch, I will consider it.
Ive been holding on to my Wii due to Bomberman Blast is freaking awesome with multiplayer. Super Bomberman R has had poor reviews but apparently the updates (and now this discount) have made me interested in it again.
Competitive online vs Massive RPG, can't play both without time management(with little time I have to play) I guess I'll leave it up to RNG as either game is a winner.
@jamesthemagi Thanks! Gris has definitely been on my radar now that I have my own Switch! As for Donut County, I'm willing to give it a chance at that price. The review here as well as other feedback I've found indicates that getting it on sale is best.
@Heavyarms55 I know my message was long, but I did say, I wont buy them on PS4 because they are not portable. Instead I keep waiting for a better Switch sale.
Rayman Legends Definitive Edition is also getting a discount from 39.99 to 11$. I'm having a hard time deciding if I should buy the digital or physical copy of the game.
@mj2k18 this seems pretty judgemental...do you even know this person's age or life situation ? calm down
I was waiting to see if Dragon Quest XI would have a good discount in the US eshop sale, too, but I'll have to get it from the Australian eshop anyway. OR....... Ni No Kuni from the US sale...
@mj2k18
What on Earth does it have to do with you what another person does with their money?
P.S. The answer is absolutely nothing’
@mj2k18 Let's just say I spent more than I ought to have during the holidays. I have like $6 to my name at the moment, so no, I can't afford a $12 game. On average, I make enough money to afford spoiling myself a bit each month. Not that it matters, but you sure seem interested, ya nosy grunt.
@KayFiOS thanks for your response! Really sorry if I came off as offensive, I was just in a weird mood (it happens often as I’m currently transitioning). Also I was genuinely curious as I see those paycheck posts commonly. That explains things. Last year I only had around $15 to my name after a crazy Christmas, so I know how it feels. Really appreciate your response, and sorry again for coming off as such a judgy meanie! I swear it’s not really who I am and didn’t mean what I said. I hope you are able to purchase and enjoy it!! 🥰
I was really hoping to see Astral Chain on this list
@mj2k18 Fair enough; I have those days myself, and can get a bit defensive when someone is coming across as judgmental. Middle of the month is usually when I plan out how I'll treat myself, though no planning went into how I spent during the holidays, on myself or other people.
@MuhBael
I don't care about box art or guide books or even carrying physical game, but when eshop is discontinued, that will be it. No way of ever getting that game back.
However, if the game is discounted enough, I just spring for eShop. I have so many games that realistically I won't be able to replay them all in the future as I hope. So I take best deal I can get now.
@KayFiOS
You could put it on a credit card and then pay it off on your pay day. That way you also do not accrued interest.
@jamesthemagi Yeah... I kinda maxed out my credit card during the holidays. I'd rather start paying that off than get a new one.
@jamesthemagi but what happens if say E-Shop dies and I have the game already downloaded? I could still play it
@MuhBael
Yes, you could play it as much as you like.
The problem is if your Switch breaks and the eShop is gone, you could get another Switch, but those games are gone because you have no way to redownload them
On my Switch it says the sale is On until the twelfth.
@NintendoByNature black friday opens your wallet and turns it upside down, christmas starts shaking it, and new years starts patting its bottom to make sure they got every last bit of it.
@tekknik oh for sure. I got robbed lol
Finally got Arms and Luigi's Mansion for 3DS
I wound up getting PacMan Championship Edition... in the Japanese eShop... where it was actually on sale.
And I snagged Puyo Puyo Champions for $4 since apparently they didn't want to include the English translation in the Japanese version despite pretty much everyone else doing that including yourselves, Sega.
I might splurge and get Donkey Kong Country Returns on 3DS.
