Use www.dekudeals.com for discounts on physical and digital games. You can get massive savings through it.

 

Unfortunately first party games generally don't get discounted much but AAA and Indie third parties can go down as much as 90%. I've picked up Puyo Puyo Tetris for £3, Star Atlas for £9 and Mario vs Rabbids for £6. Games don't have to be expensive. Part of the fun is getting these super deals.

Just pulled the trigger on Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA in the NY sale. Good reviews and £16 for a 40+ hour game. Haven't played a none FF RPG for any a year so looking forward to getting started.

Just smashed the first 3 hours. Really fun, never used a battle system similar, it's really intuitive and I'm getting the hang of the dodges etc. 

 

Nice learning curve and if you die, which I have a couple of times, you regen at the last crystal you touch which is always before a boss battle. Enjoy the side quests about making the camp better too using materials. 

 

If the first 3 hours are anything to go by then it's £16 well spent.

Similar titles to this would be Octopath Traveller, Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age, Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom, Xenoblade Chronicles, Xenoblade Chronicles II and Monster Hunter Rise. Some of them are often on sale - Ni No Kuni has been £7! That was made in conjection with Studio Gibli who make a lot of famous Japanse cartoons.

 

I know far too much about this shit!

Repped for weeaboo knowledge. Love a bit of Gibli so will keep my eye out for Ni No Kuni. 

 

Fenyx rising looks decent as well.

That’s very good. I have played it on Xbox series and it’s stunning. Although I have it on switch, Zelda breath of the wild is superior in every way. Fenyx is heavily influenced by it.

Hear Zelda his the stand out. Hence it's price tag! I don't get much of a chance to play out of termtime so try to keep it budget.

I’ve seen fenyx rising for £13 somewhere 

 

You can collect instore at game and get it as part of 2 for £20. It’s £5 home delivery but I hear they give £5 in store to promote store collection. Very good deal.

Yeah it shows up on dekudeals frequently. It was a toss up between that and Ys for me so once I'm done with Ys ill have a look what is on offer. Can't cope with more than one at a time!

Fenyx Rising is now £13 on amazon. It doesn’t happen often, snap it up.

Just have! Bargain. Got the rona so it's going to give me a chance to get stuck into Ys anyway!

Fenyx is great fun. My 5 year loves it as well.

Gonna get into that when I finish Ys VIII, which I have to say I'm really enjoying. I've just got it on normal mode and the bases are challenging. It jts very much a "get killed? Don't worry, have another go" style game which suits me. More like an interactive film. 

 

Tempted to get the subtitled goose game

Magical title, £8.99 and that is only the second time it’s ever been on sale. I’ve picked it up because I missed it first time and that was over a year ago.

 

I’ve also today picked up Mr DRILLER Drilland reduced from £15.99 to £3.99, rave reviews

Tales of Vesperia is currently £7.99 on eshop. It's a steal at that price. Almost as good as Dragon Quest and one of the best JRPGs on the system. Reduced I think from £39.99.

Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum 'n' Fun! Software is £8 on eshop and the Taiko drum is available for about £25 at the minute. Usually the package is 60+ tempted as I used to love Donkey Konga on the game cube

I've picked up the game, as you say it's normally very expensive but not going down the drum kit road. You can use the joy cons as drum sticks.

 

Also story of seasons was a steal, the game that influenced animal crossing for £8.

If I wasn’t waiting for BOTW2, I’d likely have sold mine by now.

Drum arrived today. Well worth getting as the joy com drum sticks was a bit buggy for me. Immediately ordered another one so we can do family battles.

Worth looking at Retro Bowl which is on a pre order discount of £2.69. Fun looking strategy/arcade NFL simulator.

Another underwhelming Direct…

 

 

This Mario Kart thing has annoyed me. The Switch game is already a tarted up version of a 2014 Wii U game.

 

So really all they’ve done in 8 years is redesign some old courses & charged full price for Deluxe and then another £25 for some more target price up courses.

 

5 years since Mario Odyssey & BOTW1 (which in itself is a port), 8 years since anything original in Mario Kart, a Donkey Kong port, no Metroid Prime…. I know Nintendo like taking their time but fuck me.

 

I read the other day some Nintendo Executive saying the Switch is halfway through its lifecycle. Seems to me they are happy to let the Switch rumble on with minimal first party games and are already focusing on Switch 2 or whatever. 
 

Like a sucker, no doubt I’ll be buying the MK DLC.
