Big game steals you don’t want to sleep on
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition — $39.88 at select retailers. If you missed this heck-of-an-RPG when it landed in 2025, now’s a great time to dive into Mira. Monolith Soft’s open-world sci-fi playground still shines, especially once you’re piloting Skells and blasting through the skies. Huge world = tons of side quests and exploration payoff.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze — $39.88. Retro Studios’ platformer is still a peak Switch couch co-op pick. It’s tight, colorful, and brutal in all the right ways—perfect if you want another giant, bouncy adventure after trying newer DK releases.
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening — $39.88. The remake is a charming one-two punch of nostalgia and polish, and on newer hardware it can run smoother at higher frame rates. If you’ve upgraded to the latest Switch, expect a snappier performance that makes old-school Zelda puzzles feel fresh again.
Gear & rigs: headphones and a PC that actually won’t choke
AirPods Pro 3 — $209.99. Apple’s newest Pro buds got a makeover: a new fit, stronger noise isolation, and a built-in in-ear heart-rate sensor for people who like fitness metrics with their playlists. For gamers who also want solid wireless audio and convenience between phone, console, and PC, these are a tidy all-rounder.
Alienware gaming desktop — ~$1,399.99 after discount. If you’re fed up with building a rig or watching GPU prices pop off, a prebuilt from Alienware (Dell) can be tempting. This deal usually bundles a mid-high tier GPU, 32GB RAM and plenty of storage—good for streamers or anyone who wants a ready-to-go PC with room to game and edit.
Collector’s corner: anime sets and expansion bundles
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3 – Limited Edition Blu-ray — $49.99. The Part 3 set packs the episodes from that cour plus extras like a production booklet and behind-the-scenes content—solid for anyone finishing the saga before the final cour premieres this July. Physical editions like this are great for fans who want artbooks and bonus material that don’t live on streaming platforms.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora — From the Ashes Edition — $29.99. Ubisoft’s open-world take on Pandora with its expansion rolled into one package is a cheap way to get lost on a planet again if the films got you hyped. It’s an easy entry point for newcomers and a tidy bundle for players who skipped it first time around.
Why this matters: Presidents Day deals like these are a neat chance to pick up a polished game you missed, grab hardware upgrades, or snag collectible editions without blowing your wallet. Prices won’t last forever, so if something on this list is on your wishlist, now’s the moment to grab it.
