Nintendo loads up on Holiday deals for Black Friday

Black Friday is almost here (it’s actually next Friday), and Nintendo has a bevy of deals to get gamers thinking that the Wii U and 3DS are the ways to go this Holiday.

“Fun is more affordable than ever. Whether you’re a Nintendo fan or shopping for one this holiday season, these excellent deals provide fun game experiences for the whole family,” said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing. “These great offers on Wii U, Nintendo 3DS and a large number of games represent an incredible value for people who want to make their holiday shopping dollars go as far as possible.”

Value is a factor here for sure, but so are some of the best games out there at the moment. For a pair of systems that’ve might have an impending successor (we have no idea what it is yet really) on the horizon in the Nintendo NX, Nintendo’s current crop of consoles actually have a fair bit of fight left in them and some excellent games to play that shouldn’t be missed.

And the company plans on taking full advantage of that with Black Friday deals on games, bundles, and even Amiibo. Here’s what to get and where to get it:
