It’s time once again to stop for a moment and check out the very best gaming deals that we spotted over the past week on the wild, wild, web. As usual, we’ve got deals that’ll work in the UK, deals that’ll work in the US and some deals that will work in both the UK and US, as well as presumably many other places. Let’s get started.

UK & US Deals

8Bitdo-Switch-Shot-01

A long time ago I posted about 8bitdo and its range of wireless Bluetooth Nintendo replica controllers that are vastly better than they have any right to be. While the designs may skirt various copyright issues very carefully, these little controllers are fantastic for playing old school games. This week, thanks to a firmware update, the 8bitdo range of NES and SNES replica controllers work with Nintendo Switch consoles, too, making all those NeoGeo downloadable titles all the more playable. We’ve got a guide to finding the best prices for these controllers over at Jelly Deals, feel free to take a look.

best of indie legends bundle pc bundle stars

Bundle Stars is currently offering a pack of indie games including Skullgirls, Freedom Planet, Viscera Cleanup Detail, Robot Roller-Derby Disco Dodgeball and Lethal League, among others, all for £3.19 / $3.49. This bundle lasts for just over another week, but if you’ve never played Lethal League, let me tell you the bundle is worth it just for that game alone.

stellaris

Back to Humble briefly for a heads up – there’s only a week left to get yourself a copy of Stellaris along with a stack of other Steam keys for $12 / £10 in Humble’s Monthly subscription service. After that, the set of games will move onto a brand new set, so if spacey explory games are your thing, get in while you can.

It’s worth noting that if the level of discount on this bundle is, in fact, a mistake, this deal will likely stop working soon.

dishonored_2_lithograph_bethesda_store

Dishonored 2 hasn’t actually been out for that long in the grand scheme of things but it’s already seeing some pretty severe price drops. You can pick up an Xbox One or PS4 copy of the game for £10 right now by heading over to Amazon UK.

Those of you who are struggling to keep your excitement for the upcoming new season of Game of Thrones at bay may be interested to know that the Blu-ray box set of Game of Thrones Seasons 1-6 is currently £50 off over at Amazon UK. That means the 27-disc (!) set is reduced to £59.99 for a limited time.

PS Move Controllers

If you do happen to pick up a PlayStation VR headset this week, you may want to grab yourself a couple of those rather strange looking, bulbous PlayStation Move Motion controllers. Fortunately, you can get a twin-pack of those very controllers at the cheapest price they’ve been so far, down to £49.29 at the moment.

LG OLED 4K Curved

Alright this one is almost the definition of the phrase ‘luxury item’ but still. The LG OLED 4K smart TV which Digital Foundry has previously labelled as one of, if not the very best 4K TV you can get your hands on these days, is currently down to its lowest price ever. That still means it will cost you £1399, though. Enter the code LSTV100A at checkout to get that price.

amiibodeals

Unless they’re all sold out by the time you read this, you can get your hands on a wide variety of amiibo figures, all for £6.99 each by going to Argos’ website. Even if they do start to sell out, there should be a fair amount of them available for click and collect and let’s face it, you know you want to pick up a Mr. Game and Watch, right?

life_is_strange_episode_5_6

Fresh off the announcement that a new season of the young-adult indie cult hit Life is Strange is coming, Amazon US is discounting the digital copy of the game’s entire first season down to a criminally low $6.80. Divisive as the game may be, it’s hard to argue with a price of under seven bucks.
