First up: physical games. You remember those, right? They’re the shiny discs or cartridges that actually belong to you, unlike your digital library which is basically a promise from a server farm in Nebraska. When you buy physical, you can smell the manual, lend it to a friend, or—brace yourself—use it as a tiny, nostalgic coaster.
Here’s a surprising fact: the average physical game cartridge has a failure rate of less than 0.1%, while my digital download library crashed three times last week because a hamsters sneezed on a power line. So yeah, owning a disc is like having a blast-proof bunker for your entertainment.
And this sale includes select titles—which is corporate-speak for “we picked the good ones.” You’ll find hidden gems like «Chrono Trigger 2: Electric Boogaloo»… okay, I made that up. But the real games on offer are so cheap, you’ll feel like you’re stealing from a dragon’s hoard.
Amiibo: The Plastic Lords Want Your Money
Now, let’s talk about Amiibo. These little figurines are tiny gods of consumerism that sit on your shelf and judge your life choices. They unlock secret features in games, but mostly, they exist to clutter your desk with adorable judgment. My Samus Aran amiibo once stared at me until I organized my bookshelf.
Here’s the kicker: some Amiibo are rarer than a unicorn with a mushroom allergy. The “Qbby” amiibo—a literal box with a face—once sold for $300 on eBay. But right now, select Amiibo are on sale for less than the price of a fancy sandwich. That’s right—you can buy a tiny, barely-functional figurine that drops chocolate in a video game (looking at you, Mario Party).

And if you put them on your shelf next to some books, you’ve instantly become a person of culture and mystery. At parties, you can point at a Link amiibo and say, “This one saved Hyrule. The other one is just a wolf from Twilight Princess.” Boom. Instant charisma.
