If you’re lucky, you’ve got a bunch of free days going on right now, and they need to be filled with games. I’ve therefore sniffed through every online store in a search for the best gaming bargains of the day. They’re new, they’re old, but most importantly, they’re quite a bit cheaper than their original asking price. So stop reading and get scrolling / saving!

In retro news, I’m celebrating the 37th birthday of the mighty Sega Master System. I somehow pleaded my way into one of these when this oversized oblong started to be bundled with two controllers, a light phaser, and two games (Hang On and Safari Hunt). Boasting newer, improved hardware compared to its worthy NES rival, Sega’s 8-bit beast seized a significant market share lead in Oz (a feat not replicated in more important markets like Japan and North America). What is your easiest, cheapest, and most reasonably authentic way to experience the Master System vibe today? Buy the modern remaster of Alex Kidd in Miracle World. Everybody owned it.

Pure Scores for PlayStation

PS5 Pro console

Less a discount and more of a “this was sold out at Amazon AU just a few days ago but now it’s back in stock” announcement. Not a bad preorder option, as you have to put zero money down until it ships.
