• Controllers and pro pads: DualSense $55, DualSense Edge $169, Xbox controllers and premium third‑party pads on sale.
• Storage & cards: microSD Express cards for Switch 2 (Samsung 256GB/512GB) at steep discounts — consider capacity needs when buying digital games.

Deals on PC & Xbox

Many PC titles and Xbox games are discounted across Steam and console stores. Xbox controllers and storage expansion cards are also on sale, though full Xbox Series consoles are less discounted this year.

Buying tips

• Check eligibility & bundles: Some bundles (console + game) offer better total value than standalone consoles — compare prices including included games.
• Watch stock & restocks: Popular items may go out of stock and return within hours; use retailer alerts and be ready to purchase quickly.
• Consider storage: Digital games fill SSDs fast — budget for microSD/SSD expansion if you buy many digital titles.
• Auto‑renew & subscriptions: If a deal includes an online subscription (PlayStation Plus, cloud services), note renewal terms and set reminders if you don’t want to continue.
• Compare platforms: Prices vary across Amazon, Best Buy, PlayStation Store, Nintendo and Microsoft — check multiple sellers for the best total value.
