Great Deals, Energizer 3x Charge Station is worth $12

Wescyde3603d ago

I got the charger last week for a few cents less than that, worth every penny. Only downfall is the cord, its very short compared to the charger the gamepad comes with in the Wii U

lebr0n3603d ago

Rayman Legends is a must buy for $20.

liamn3603d ago

I have been waiting for Rayman Legends to be $20.

Tom873603d ago

Ordered one, Great price with my GCU!

jacobvogel3603d ago

Is it true that I can't register refurbished consoles on Club Nintendo?

timothyckeegan3603d ago

It all depends on whether or not the previous person had registered it.

edgarohickman3603d ago

Any reason to go for any other bundle than Mario Kart 8?

thund3rguy3603d ago

Mario Kart 8 bundle is the best.
You get:
- Gamepad
- Controller
- Two games (Mario Kart 8 and Free Game with the club Nintendo promotion).

Concertoine3603d ago

The windwaker bundle has the sexy gamepad design.

edgarohickman3603d ago

I don't care about decals.

thund3rguy3603d ago

Is Rayman Legends for Wii U the best version out?

Tom873603d ago

You'll hardly find any one who played the game on multiple systems. Remember, Rayman Legends was first developed for Wii U.

edgarohickman3603d ago

Based on reviews, I guess it is.

mydyingparadiselost3603d ago

Yea, it was made with the gamepad in mind for the Murphy sections so it controls best with the gamepad.

meganick3602d ago

It depends on what control style you prefer. Try demos on different consoles to see which you prefer.

Looking Ahead: The Lingering Questions About the Next Mario Kart

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."

I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.

gold_drake7d ago

there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.

nintendo needs their bangers early on

Target Confirms PS5 Consoles Will Drop to Just $450 This Weekend

PlayStation 5 consoles will once again drop to just $449.99 on August 6 in the US.

fr0sty259d ago

Sony's going for the jugular.

crazyCoconuts259d ago

Strike hardest when the enemy is weak

darthv72259d ago

the price drop should be $100 (at least) for that... haha

fr0sty259d ago

@darth the sales numbers in the UK, where this price cut has already been implemented, strongly disagree with you.

seanpitt23258d ago

Have you guys heard yourself!

darthv72258d ago

sorry frosty... I thought this was in the US.

InUrFoxHole258d ago

No. They are going for off loading before the slim. I'd save my $ till then. Unless that kinda thing doesn't matter to you.

That's November..

This is for kids on summer holidays

Not everywhere is hot and sunny like California, some kids, need things to do when it's raining/cold and this, is it.

anast259d ago

They going to bury Xbox. Xbox will turn around and justify the mobile/streaming shift.

fr0sty259d ago (Edited 259d ago )

They already are burying Xbox... this is just another nail in that coffin. Sony put the hammer away and busted out the nail gun.

purple101258d ago

Its airline too .not even battery powered. They are going full Bosch on M$ ass

fr0sty258d ago

Like "oh, you wanna buy up a bunch of publishers with the expressed intent of putting us out of business? Hey y'all, watch this! Hold my Dual Sense..."

neutralgamer1992258d ago

i believe they want as many gamers to buy PS5 as possible because once someone buys into the ecysystem they are a lot less likely to leave for another platform

Eonjay259d ago

Will be interesting to see if Amazon takes the bait.

jznrpg258d ago

They usually match other places so I wouldn’t be surprised

ChasterMies259d ago

This is how Sony goes for the jugular. Microsoft can’t afford to make games exclusive if it doesn’t have any marketshare. Also clear that the discless PS5 will be the single PS5 going forward and the disc drive will be an add-on. When the $300 PS5 slim launches, the hot sales of PS5 will go super nova. (Don’t feel like you need to wait. On an annual cost basis, you may be better off getting a $400-$450 PS5 that you can use now versus waiting for a console that will be obsolete sooner.)

Ryuk_2007258d ago

"Microsoft can’t afford to make games exclusive if it doesn’t have any marketshare".

Sheesh, and here I thought M$ had a monopoly on the gaming market. Sony owing most of the market means it'll be easier for M$ to buy publishers to compete lol

InUrFoxHole258d ago

Stand by my boy. Digging up this goal post. Pardon while I write my new narrative.

EasilyTheBest258d ago

Looking forward to when Microsoft drops the price of the Xbox Series X & the comments will be that Microsoft are desperate lolol

Magatsuhi258d ago

I'll just wait for a sale on Best Buy or Amazon. F target!
