Today’s Best Deals: Persona 3 Reload for Switch 2, Nitro Deck 2, and Fallout Day at the IGN Store

Persona 3 Reload for Nintendo Switch 2 has dropped to its lowest price yet on Amazon and Best Buy. At launch, frame rate issues plagued the game, but ATLUS seems to have fixed them, so you can enjoy this classic RPG adventure in all its glory on your Switch 2. In IGN’s Persona 3 Reload review, Michael Higham gave the game an “Amazing” 9/10 rating and found: “With a stellar visual overhaul and countless small but impactful changes, Persona 3 Reload tells a timeless story of tragedy and hope with sharp emotional sincerity.”

The CRKD Nitro Deck 2 has received its first discount, a solid $20 off. If you, like many users, find the Joy-Con and now the Joy-Con 2 controllers uncomfortable, this is the solution. Unlike the original, the Nitro Deck 2 works with the Switch 2, the original Switch, and the Switch OLED consoles in handheld mode. You can also collapse the controls to play in docked mode. The controller itself features full-sized thumbsticks that won’t suffer from drift and have adjustable tension. Four back buttons, two extra shoulder buttons, and fully remappable controls round out this awesome Joy-Con 2 alternative.

For extra screen real estate when using a laptop or even Switch, pick up the ASUS ZenScreen 15.6" USB Portable Monitor (MB16AHV) while it’s $50 off on Amazon.

Its 15.6" IPS display features a 1080p resolution, 60Hz refresh rate, wide viewing angles, and an anti-glare coating. For connectivity, it offers two USB Type-C ports and one mini HDMI port.

The PlayStation Store has an additional $40 discount when you purchase a Certified Refurbished PlayStation 5 Console and a Recertified DualSense Wireless Controller. The total comes to $568 for the Disc Edition and $518 with the Digital Edition. Admittedly, this isn’t incredible savings, but with GTA VI coming out next month and hardware prices continuing to rise, it’s one of the best deals going. You’re essentially getting $723 worth of hardware (or $673).

Speaking of PlayStation, the Lisa x PlayStation ‘Press Play’ collab has dropped on Amazon. Check it out below:

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.”

IGN’s top horror game of 2023, Alan Wake 2, is down to 29.83 for the Deluxe Edition PlayStation 5 disc. 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.

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.

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.

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.

You can still pick up an Xbox Elite Series 2 Core Controller for $40 off at select retailers. That’s the biggest discount it's received in a long time. This pro-level Xbox and PC controller has high-end features, like adjustable-tension thumbsticks, a wrap-around rubberized grip, handy hair trigger locks, button mapping, and more. The component pack that comes with the non-Core Xbox Elite Series 2 Controller isn’t included with the Core model but can be purchased separately. Otherwise, the two controllers are identical. For more, read IGN’s Elite Series 2 review.

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. However, Samsung’s cards offer better longevity and deliver faster sequential read and write times, according to IGN’s testing. It’s the perfect option for your Switch 2, and you’ll likely need it. Many games are Game-Key Cards of Code-in-Box, meaning they’ll eat up that 256GB on the console fast.

Want a gaming PC that’ll cruise through 1440p gaming at a budget price? Grab the Acer Nitro 65 while it’s $350 off at Best Buy. It’s rocking an AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT with 16GB of VRAM, ready to run just about any game smoothly at 60fps+ up to 1440p. That GPU is paired with an air-cooled AMD Ryzen 7 8700F 8-core, 16-thread processor. 16GB of DDR5 RAM and a 1TB NVMe SSD round out the PC.

A Game-Key Card for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on Switch 2 is down to just $34.99 at Best Buy and Amazon. At Best Buy, it’s the Day One Edition, and it includes a Magic: The Gathering Zack Fair promo card. As for the game, this remake of the classic action RPG earned an “Amazing” 9/10 rating in IGN’s review. Michael Higham added that it’s “full of exciting challenges and an awe-inspiring recreation of a world that has meant so much to so many for so long.”
