If you’re after a bargain, you’ve come to the right place. I’ve done the hard work for you and found all the actual good deals in the Amazon Big Spring Sale.
Not to be confused with the Big Deal Days, Black Friday, Prime Day, or any of the other random “-day but really a week” sale events that they love to throw a party for (I am also guilty of this, in all honesty).
But I digress, so let’s take a look at what’s on sale right now, and whether it’s genuinely a good deal, or just another dud. There are discounts for PS5, Switch 1+2, and Xbox, so fun for all the family.
My Favorite Games on Sale Right Now
I’ll start with some of my favorite deals in the sale, before digging into some more obscure offers that I think are worth highlighting. I recently ranted about the slew of Switch 2 games discounted at Amazon as part of the early sale period, and plenty of those deals are either still going, or have even gotten better since!
While the best deal, Final Fantasy Remake Intergrade for $29.99 on Switch 2, is temporarily out of stock, it’s actually still available on back order. I’d pick this up ASAP while it’s still available, as we all need some gaming excellence to play on our shiny new consoles right now.
Outside of Amazon, but still under the retailer’s big corpy umbrella, Woot is also putting on a fairly decent video game sale right now as well. That includes Final Fantasy Tactics – The Ivalice Chronicles for just $24.99 on both PS5 and Switch.
Plus if you use code SAVETWENTY on anything at Woot, then you can drop the sale price by an additional 20% (that’s how promo codes work). That’s just for one day only on March 25, so you better get a shift on if you want to secure the best savings possible.
The game is still listed for $40 on Amazon itself, so you’re grabbing a bargain by going via Woot and still getting the benefits of shopping through Amazon, such as fast delivery with Prime.
Other highlights include Sonic X Shadow Generations for just $13 on PS5, what can only be described as a mega bargain, alongside a tidy deal on a refurbished Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller, now just $58.39 instead of the pricey $89 you’d expect to pay, when using code SAVETWENTY on March 25 only.
Top Video Game Deals at Woot
I’ve also thrown in a couple of deals that are worth checking out from rival Spring sales, such as Walmart and Target. Notably, Walmart has The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom down to just $49.99, alongside the latest Call of Duty, Black Ops 7, for just $35 (albeit mostly everyone is flocking to 2019’s Modern Warfare at the moment thanks to a tidy discount on Steam).
Finally, there’s also a whole bunch of Pokemon games included in the sale at Woot, with that handy SAVETWENTY discount applying here as well. This is great for anyone who missed out on similar deals around Pokemon Day.
