Another round of video game deals and discounts - let's get started!
The Origin Store is having a huge Player Appreciation Sale, listing 200+ games at up to 70% off. Most games are PC downloads or for other systems, but there are several Nintendo related deals to be had, including Need For Speed: Most Wanted and Mass Effect 3: Special Edition for $29.99 each, as well as 50% off discounts for FIFA Soccer 13 and Madden NFL 13. They're also offering free shipping for orders over $25 - a nice bonus.
Best Buy has updated their Big Spring Cleanup Sale with some new items, including Kirby Mass Attack for $7.99 and Sin & Punishment: Star Successor for $9.99. These are truly fantastic games that should not be overlooked, especially for these prices. Throw in free shipping and there's really no excuse to pass these deals up. If you haven't tried 'em already - or if you're looking for some affordable Easter gifts - these two games are great options.
Gamestop's Weekly Ad is up, and they've listed several Nintendo friendly offers in the mix. The Amazing Spider-Man: Ultimate Edition for Wii U has been price dropped to $29.99 - a great deal, especially considering this edition of the game includes four DLC packs you'd have to purchase separately on other platforms. If you buy a Skylanders Giants Starter Pack for $69.99, Gamestop will toss in a Skylanders Giants Battle Pack for free - a $24.99 value. A nice deal if you've been considering the game, but this offer look to be in-store only - at least, for now. Same for the Wii U Lego City Undercover offer, where you'll receive an exclusive unlock code for a Werewolf (!?!?) costume with your purchase. This offer isn't currently reflected online, so you'll want to shop locally if - y'know - you'd like to howl at the moon or whatever. Lego style.
And that's a wrap. For many more game specific deals, read the rest of this story! And if you missed the last Online Game Deals installment, be sure to give it a look - there are some other, fantastic Nintendo related sales and promotions this week, including Target's Buy 2, Get 1 Free sale and $50 gift card Wii U offer. 'Till next time, this is Grubber Gamer saying so long, and may all your game purchases be worth it. Thanks for reading!
P.S. Like the Nano Assault/Nanostray shmups? Like digital game soundtracks? Get two soundtracks for a buck, three for $5, or five for $10.
