Nintendo unveiled all of the Black Friday deals and bundles it plans to offer in the coming weeks. These offerings are headlined by a brand new Nintendo Switch bundle with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that has never been available before.

The Nintendo Switch — OLED Model: Super Smash Bros. Ulitmate Bundle costs $350 and comes with a code for the fantastic 2018 crossover fighting game as well as three months of a Nintendo Switch Online Membership. The bundle’s Joy-Cons feature a design based on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Unfortunately, this deal includes neither Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s Fighter Passes nor the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack. Nintendo says this bundle will be released on November 19, although they’ve already been spotted in some stores.

The other big new offering from Nintendo this holiday season is the Super Mario Party + Red & Blue Joy-Con Bundle. It costs $100 and includes a download code for Super Mario Party in addition to Red and Blue Joy-Con controllers. Keep in mind that this bundle includes 2018’s Super Mario Party, not 2021’s Mario Party Superstars, which remastered a lot of content from the series’ older games.

The Super Mario Party + Red & Blue Joy-Con bundle is available 11/10!

Nintendo also plans to offer bundles that have been available before, like the Nintendo Switch Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Bundle and Animal Crossing: New Horizons Nintendo Switch Lite.

Various game discounts for Switch games will also go into effect on November 19. In terms of Nintendo-published games, people can expect Everybody 1-2-Switch! and Nintendo Switch Sports to be discounted by $10, titles like Luigi’s Mansion 3, Super Mario Odyssey, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and Xenoblade Chronicles 3 to have $20 discounts, and for Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Mario Strikers: Battle League, and Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes to all be available $30 cheaper than usual. Sadly, it does not look like Nintendo itself will offer any major deals surrounding this year’s The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

All of these bundles and deals will become available on November 19.

Aion 2’s naughty character customization is the least interesting thing about it
It has surprisingly good combat and flying, but its monetization is much harder to defend.

I’m not a big fan of MMORPGs, but Aion 2’s rise to the top of the Steam charts with over 400,000 concurrent players was enough to pique my interest. Yes, the game has a breast size slider, and no, I don’t think it’s a big deal when it sits among some 200 other customization options in one of the deepest character creators I have ever seen. And yeah, the options run deeper than Cyberpunk 2077. Yet most discussions online barely mention the game itself.

It's as if most critics never made it past that menu.

AMD’s FSR 4 is coming to handhelds, so I can see myself losing games in higher resolution
AMD’s FSR 4 is coming to handhelds, but your Steam Deck might be left out

AMD is bringing its FSR 4 upscaling technology to handheld gaming PCs by the end of 2026, potentially giving portable devices a welcome boost in gaming performance. The catch? It is still unclear whether existing devices such as the Steam Deck and ROG Ally will get the upgrade or whether gamers will need to buy new hardware.

AMD consumer chip chief Jack Huynh confirmed the expansion in comments to South Korean publication The Elec. The company plans to bring its machine-learning-based FSR 4 technology to APUs, gaming laptops and handheld devices, expanding it beyond the desktop graphics cards it initially supported.

ARC Raiders just dropped its biggest update yet, and I’m having a blast
I waited six months for Arc Raider's Frozen Trails, and it's like I never left.
Arc Raiders Frozen Trial Frigate in the map

After watching all of those teasers and trailers, I avoided any of the early impressions of Arc Raiders' latest update from gaming channels on YouTube and dived right into the new map, Pendola Pass. Embark’s massive 2.0 update introduces a snowy Italian mountain settlement beyond the Rust Belt where one of the enormous Emperor ARC machines has somehow fallen.

After a few raids, I thought I had seen everything, from the new Arc enemies to the new map. But just before I was getting ready to drop into Pendola Pass for the fifth time, that's when I noticed the Frigate mentioned on Blue Gate. So obviously, I went to check it out. As I first laid eyes on this flying fortress, I knew we're so back.
