The holiday season, one of the more expensive times of the year for many of us, is in full swing. Thankfully, many retailers offer a ton of sales, allowing you to get more bang for your buck. While gaming is among the most popular gift categories, Nintendo has a history of avoiding discounting its products during the holiday season. Luckily, third-party sellers like Amazon are offering some sweet deals, including this Nintendo Switch bundle that includes a $30 Amazon promotional credit .

For $300, consumers can purchase the updated version of the Nintendo Switch, a unique hybrid console that is both a handheld and console system, along with a pair of Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy-Cons, all in one neat package. And, if you enter the promotional code D3E2CDJ6GB6S at checkout, you will obtain a $30 (digital) Amazon promotional credit that will be added to your account a few days after you purchase the system. This credit can be used toward the purchase of a new Nintendo Switch game, or you can use that credit to purchase a digital code for Nintendo’s digital distribution store, the Nintendo eShop.

When initially released nearly three years ago, the Nintendo Switch received a positive reception from both critics and fans, although the original model was criticized due to the weak battery life while playing in handheld mode. The new Nintendo Switch model corrects this problem by increasing battery life.

If you are interested in picking up a few games for your Nintendo Switch, you’re in luck. Several of the Switch’s most popular titles are currently on sale, including Pokemon Sword/Shield for $48 and Fire Emblem: Three Houses for $50.

Amazon is not the only retailer offering a Nintendo Switch deal right now. Best Buy’s Nintendo Switch deal includes the new Nintendo Switch model, along with a free copy of Starlink: Battle for Atlas, plus a $30 Best Buy gift card. Walmart also has a few Switch deals currently available, including a Nintendo Switch bundle that comes with a carrying case, plus a $20 Nintendo eShop gift card. Or, if you are looking to purchase a Nintendo Switch Lite instead, Walmart has a promotion that allows you to snag both the gaming system, plus a $10 carrying case for $200.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4’s Stranded mission had me hooked for hours, yet left me wanting more
I spent hours sneaking through North Korea, scavenging supplies, and clearing outposts, and I’d happily do it all again.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Stranded mission gameplay

For years, Call of Duty’s campaign mode has used big, scripted set pieces to tell the overarching story amid all the adrenaline-pumping action. The 2023 Modern Warfare 3 tried to shake up the established formula by introducing a handful of short open combat missions, and I genuinely liked the idea, but the game's overall negative reception seeped into how those missions were received.

I feared the next iteration might abandon the idea because of the backlash, but I am glad it didn't. MW4’s “Stranded” mission uses the same approach, but instead of fragmenting it across the campaign, it puts it all in a single large-scale open-world mission.

Intel Arc G3 Extreme Hands On with Acer Predator Atlas 8

Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.

Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.
