Deals Roundup: Your Weekly Dose of Gaming Discounts

Deals Roundup: Your Weekly Dose of Gaming Discounts

Vincent Parisi 30 Apr

It’s April 30, and you know what that means: Only two more days until the midnight screening of Iron Man 3 for all the U.S. fans that would rather shoot adrenaline than sleep in the wee hours of the morning. Oh, and I guess it also means a week’s worth of new sales and specials for gamers to take advantage of. With this updated version of Deals Roundup, I’d like to welcome the Wii U to the gang. Now that Nintendo is sort of getting their act together and finally launched the Wii U’s Virtual Console, I look forward to posting the latest deals on all the retro, nostalgia-filled titles of yesteryear. As always, let’s kick things off with the Deal of the Week.

 DealsRoundup

Virtual Console 30th Anniversary: As part of the ongoing Nintendo anniversary celebration, every couple weeks from January through August there are discounts on classic NES and SNES titles. Now that the Virtual Console is available for the Wii U, you can take advantage of the upgraded versions of these titles. Upgrading from the Wii Virtual Console version of games to the Wii U version costs $1.00 for NES titles and $1.50 for SNES titles (with support for other console versions coming later) and gives you: Remote play, customizable controls, save states, and Miiverse support.

  • 4/17 – 5/16: Kirby’s Adventure– $0.30 (Yeah, that’s thirty cents.)

That wraps things up for this week’s sales and specials. It’s a pretty great way to kick off May, with some monster sales on a number of really great titles across the board. Hopefully, Nintendo starts to get into the routine of weekly discounts as soon as the Virtual Console fills out with a wider selection of titles. There are some featured games on the eShop every week, but they don’t have a dedicated discount section, but baby steps I guess.

Which discounted games do you plan on picking up this week? What add-on or DLC are you most looking forward to seeing reduced in price before purchasing? Let us know in the comments section.

About The Author

Vincent Parisi

I guess I'm the typical, modern day nerd. I was raised right on Batman: TAS and old-school TMNT. I've been a core gamer since I was 2 years old (I was beating Mario before I could finish sentences) and haven't thought twice about it since. My favorite game genre is RPG for sure. I love the advent of channels like Nerdist and Geek and Sundry, and will never turn down an invitation to a Con. (Though I don't cosplay... yet.) I hate not owning the latest and greatest gadgets and aspire to find my place in the world of game journalism. Favorite Games: The Mass Effect trilogy, Super Mario World, the BioShock series, the Ratchet and Clank series, anything featuring Nolan North. Favorite shows: FireFly (Browncoats, unite!), Bones, Castle, Spectacular Spider-Man (RIP), Transformers Prime. Anything featuring the voice talents of Steve Blum, Gina Torres, Ashley Johnson, or Yuri Lowenthal. Favorite Comics: Amazing Spider-Man (Thanks for the memories), most things featuring Batman, any one where Green Arrow makes an appearance.
