Canada:
This weekend coming up is Shopper’s Super Sale. You can get a bonus gift card ($ below) with the purchase of consoles and various other electronics on sale. Fantastic deals if you get a points offer too.
Switch - 100$
Switch Lite - 75$
Xbox S/X - 100$
PS4/Pro - 100$
Also 6tb external seagate for 100$.
Afaik this is our lowest price so far for Lites other than that Costco clearance.
Our pharmacies don’t carry game consoles and hard drives here, I feel cheated :(
I got mine from the pharmacy. It cost me $450 or so but I got about $220 worth of points so it made it pretty cheap. What I really want to do is go to Shoppers to get some eshop cards but the fear of Covid is keeping me home.
Detective Hamble Sale @ Humble Store
Child of Light is currently free at the Ubisoft store.
Don’t know much about it but it sure is purdy.
I loved, loved, loved Child of Light. Especially the soundtrack. I found it a joy to play. You can also currently get it for the Switch for only $4.99. It goes on sale pretty regularly.
I only played a little of it on the Vita a while back, but it sure is gorgeous and has great music. Gameplay seemed good, too, if you like simple turn-based RPGs.
Have thought of double dipping on this one for a while (it’s been $4.99 for a couple of weeks), but trying to fight the urge to rebuy games I already have on other consoles. The justification of slightly bigger screen on Switch over Vita isn’t enough (I tell myself when I know deep down I will pull the trigger soon).
Thanks for the heads up.
Ironhide is having a sale at Steam.
These are the guys that made Kingdom Rush, a popular tower defense series.
The sequels to the original, Frontiers and Origins are 50% off ($4.99 and $7.49, respectively), as is their foray into more of an RTS type game, Iron Marines ($7.49).
Quick Bargain Update between laptop deployments and equipment moves!
It’s the final hours of the Fanatical Spring Sale. New freebie with $10 purchase is vehicle sandbox builder Homebrew : Patent Unknown.

Same deal with the Endless Space 2 Collection
Mechanicus is tempting. What is the consensus around here, any good?
I know that the reviews are “overwhelmingly positive”, but I found it very meh. I didn’t like the interface, or the graphical style, or the general flow of the game. I refunded it.
I liked it - I’d say it’s good but not great. I was happy spending my time with it, but wouldn’t tell anyone it is a must have. I’m not a Warhammer fan and liked it so that may say something for it.
New freebies:
There are a dozen more on itch, but this looked like the best one.
Epic - Figment, World War Z, Torment Punisher
“Death-positive” what?
Was that ever finished? I remember years ago thinking it looked intriguing.
Mortician’s Tale is a modest game, but I found it to be quite good and thoughtfully made.
