Nintendo’s time to shine?
Since Christmas is just around the corner, most retailers are making a last push to put gaming deals in front of shoppers. The Wii U console discount makes a return this Sunday at Target – according to leaked weekly ads, it’ll be priced at $249.99 for the Wii U 32GB Deluxe Bundle when the deal goes live Sunday. Update: now available for store pickup only.
That is a ridiculously good price, especially considering the same model was priced at $259.99 and sold out within half an hour during the Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend. Recently we’ve seen heightened interest in the Wii U console itself from retailers as they take purchasing cues from customers.
Over at the Microsoft Store, they’re continuing with their ’12 Days of Deals’, with today’s batch featuring recently released Xbox One/360 games at 50% off (Destiny and COD: AW).
Things are slightly more quiet on the PC front, with Winter Sales looming on the horizon. GMG launched a fantasy game themed sale, while Origin just started up their Winter-ish sale – although prices are sorta meh. Lastly, there’s this pretty kick-ass Batman Arkham pack over at Bundle Stars which collects the entire series for only $9.99 – perfect if you don’t have any of the titles in your collection.
Deals brought to you by the crew at Dealzon. FYI: sales from certain retailers go toward supporting Destructoid.
