Nintendo Switch games are usually $60. $15 off is a good deal. They don't have many price drops or sales.

Octopath has been on sale a bunch, the other two, not so much (I actually don't even remember Builders, either one or two, being on sale at all). Nintendo's done a great job conditioning people to not expect huge discounts on their 1st party/published games.

If you bought it from Best Buy, you should still be in the window for a price adjustment.

I might try that, but I kind of feel bad about it since they're struggling right now.

742 indie games for $5 on itch.io.
These do not include steam keys, and many are very short. Some are barely games... But there's some gold in there, no doubt. And it goes to a good cause.

^ The above has been bumped to (currently) 1265 projects (games/items) from 1002 different creators. They've raised over $3,000,000. Some highlights (from skimming a few pages of the list):

Night in the Woods
Celeste (one of my absolute favorites)
Minit
2064: Read Only Memories
Super Win the Game (best Zelda 2 clone ever)
Glittermitten Grove (I hear they like fractions)
Octodad
Oxenfree

and 1000 more.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

Details are in the switch thread but the eshop has a pretty big sale on switch games (and 3ds games) right now. Big as in the number of games on sale, they are still "Nintendo sale prices" for the most part...

But also lots of games on sale for the first time and lots at their lowest price.

Now it's 1,652 items from 1322 creators.

It's not all games, but it's mostly games. There are a number of tabletop RPG games, as well as tilesets for making your own videogames, a few virtual consoles, comics, and music (mostly video game soundtracks or video game like music). Also, some of the items are bundles themselves.

Thanks for the heads up on this. My son loves playing the game at Dave & Busters.

CD Keys has 12 months of PlayStation Plus for $29.59 right now, after you use the coupon PAYPAL2020. I don't think I've ever seen it that low.

And I don't think I've ever heard of them before. Legit?

Yes. Legit. I buy stuff from them from time to time. They take Paypal and send codes pretty quickly (but not immediately).

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

CDkeys has been around awhile. I've also seen PS+ pop up for $30 pretty much weekly for the last month+ on Slickdeals. It's been on sale so often it seems like a new regular price.

It's making me wonder why too. Is Sony about to launch a new all encompassing service like Game Pass and are getting as many sales as possible now?
