Today’s Top Deals: Pokémon Pokopia, a LEGO Star Wars Starship, and a Sci-Fi Humble Bundle

Amazon has invite requests open to purchase the Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Box for just $59.99. That’s well below the market value, which is sitting around twice that amount. If you still want the ETB and don’t want to pay a fortune, you might as well try your luck. Even if you’re selected, you don’t have to buy. So, you’ve got nothing to lose. Be sure to check your email, and you'll have 72 hours to purchase if selected.

The Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive, Pokémon Pokopia, is down to $62.99 on Amazon. This discount isn’t huge, but it’s the lowest price I’ve seen for the unbelievably popular simulation game that launched in February. The deal is only on digital copies. However, physical copies are only Game-Key Cards, so you’re not missing out on much.

As for the actual game, it’s fun and perfectly nostalgic. You play as a lovable Ditto Pokémon that transforms into the shape of its missing former trainer and rebuilds the Kanto region while uncovering mysteries along the way. In her 9/10 Pokémon Pokopia review, Rebekah Valentine said, "Pokémon Pokopia is a real treat: an enjoyable building and town simulator that capitalizes on the charming personalities of its monsters in a way that appeals to both the creative and collector alike.”

Humble’s Sci-Fi Exposure Bundle is one of the best bundles I’ve seen in a while. For just $25, you get eight games, and for the first time, Marathon is bundled. The first-person shooter earned a 9/10 in IGN’s review, and it is “worth every ounce of hell it puts you through.” The bundle also includes Xenonauts 2, three remastered Crysis games, RoboCop: Rogue City, and the two Ghostrunner games. All come as a game key to redeem on Steam.

The LEGO Star Wars Anzellan Starship is 39% off at Amazon and Target, at a new low. This ship was used in The Mandalorian and Grogu and features tons of intricate details.

Pick up the 4K UHD Blu-ray of Barbarian at its lowest price yet at Amazon and Walmart. It should arrive before Halloween, too.

Commentary, deleted scenes, and more extras come with this 4K Blu-ray.

The Baseus Blade 20,000mAh 100W Slim Power Bank can quickly top up the best handheld gaming PCs. It’s 61% off when you apply the coupon code “Z6J1ANOV” at checkout on Amazon, and the deal isn’t exclusive to Amazon Prime members. This power bank is ultra-thin at just 0.7 inches, but delivers serious 100W power through its two USB-C ports for fast charging. Two 30W USB-A ports are also available.

In addition to the base game, the Deluxe Edition includes two expansions, Night Springs and the Lake House, plus cosmetics and items for both protagonists. It even comes with a digital copy of Alan Wake Remastered. You’re really getting a lot with this package.

As for the game itself, in IGN’s Alan Wake 2 review, Tristan Ogilvie found it, "delivers one of the boldest and most brain-bending survival-horror storylines this side of Silent Hill 2, presents it with uniformly immaculate art direction and audio design, and reinvigorates the series’ signature light-based shooting.” It’s sure to get you in the Halloween mood.

IGN’s top budget microSD Express card for Switch 2 just dropped $50 to $99.99 on Amazon. With storage prices continuing to rise, this is one of the best deals going, unless you opt for Walmart’s Onn microSD Express cards.

Many games are Game-Key Cards of Code-in-Box, meaning they’ll eat up that 256GB on the console fast.
