Update 8/13: This post has been updated with the official release date for Chibi-Robo!

The My Nintendo Store Switch 2 pre-order invites have gone out and that means the first chance to score one of the new wireless GameCube controllers has too, but the actual Switch Online GameCube library won’t launch until June 5 when the Switch 2 does. Nintendo announced that it would be bringing GameCube to its classics library for Switch Online + Expansion Pack members alongside the Switch 2, but there are a few things you need to know about it and we’ll have a look at all of the games we know are coming to the service thus far down below. 

I love Apple’s Alpine Loop, and always have. It is my go-to sporty-style strap, but every time I want a new color I need to be willing to drop $99 for one, and I don’t particularly love that. Let’s a take a closer look at Spigen’s new knock-off Alpine Loop you can land for a fraction of the price. 

The new Apple Watch Series 11 and Apple Watch Ultra 3 are now up for pre-order and will soon begin shipping. While the connectors are the same as last year’s models, if you’re looking to refresh your band wardrobe Apple has a series of new colors now live for its Alpine, Trail, and Ocean designs, as well as the Sport models. And we have also put together a list of some of our favorite third-party straps to elevate your Apple Watch experience – even if you aren’t buying a new watch this year, a fresh new band does wonders to reinvigorate the look and feel of the model you already have if you ask me. Down below you’ll find some models we have tested and wear ourselves with even more on the way soon.

Update 10/12: Today is your last chance to get in on the massive Walmart Deals fall sale (October 12).

The massive Walmart Prime Day competitor sale is now live! As you’ll know from our announcement coverage, Walmart is hosting a giant fall sale right alongside the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days event this year, and it is now live in early access for Walmart+ members – all of the deals will go live for everyone at midnight ET later tonight. 

The official 2025 Amazon Prime Big Deal Days sale, as you know, is long gone and done for another year. Some of the deals we were tracking on Apple gear have indeed disappeared now, but there is still plenty still live. Not the least of which is the return all-time low pricing on AirPods 4 and AirPods 4 with ANC alongside the $120 price drops on AirPods Max, but we also spotted a $200 price drop on the M4 Pro Mac mini to join a host of discounts across the current-generation iPad lineups, some official Beats accessories, and more. Scope out all of the best Apple gear deals still live down below.

Nintendo has now revealed a new set of Super Nintendo games landing on Nintendo Classics for Switch Online members. Last we checked in the Game Boy Advance lineup got a nice little update, but today we are turning our attention back to the iconic SNES with three new releases for the first October 2025 Games Update. 

While there are still some notable deals live on the higher-end models, Samsung’s 2025 model 27-Inch M5 (M50F) Series FHD Smart Monitor has now dropped to $179.99 shipped – this is a new Amazon all-time low that is also live straight from Samsung. 

While the official Amazon Prime Day sale is now over, that doesn’t mean all the game deals are gone. Alongside the updated list of discounts you’ll find below, the official Walmart fall sale remains live through this weekend and it has a ton of notable discounts on PS5 and Switch games right now – you can browse through all of them right here.

We are now officially well into the final 24 hours of the 2025 Amazon Prime Big Deal days sale.

While there is still plenty of time to shop the day 1 deals now live for the first 24 hours of Amazon’s fall Prime Day event, there’s no telling how long some of the deals will actually stick around for. Down below you’ll find some of our favorite price drop now live for Prime Big Deal days, gear we might have to pull our own credit cards out for, and some you might want to have on your radar while the price is right. AirPods back at the best prices ever, the lowest prices yet on the latest Google Pixel devices, the official Anker Prime Day sale, a wild discount on the latest Beats Pill, some of the most value-packed e-bikes, and that’s just for starters, get a closer look below.

Samsung has now officially launched its massive fall sale event to deliver some of the best prices of the year on much of its most sought-after new releases. From the flagship Galaxy S25 and S25 Ultra, to its ultra-thin S25 Edge, and the latest foldable releases – Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 – there are literally hundreds in savings up for grabs right now.

One of the most exciting releases in the mouse game, in about as long as I can remember, has arrived with the all-new Logitech MX Master 4. Previous iterations have been, and still are, very popular among readers and staffers. I have colleagues that have been urging me and my poor mouse hand to switch over from the infamous Magic Mouse for more than a couple years now – will the MX Master 4 finally be the turning point for me? Is the MX Master 4 better than Magic Mouse? Let’s dive in. 

Ubisoft has now officially revealed what it is calling a “major” expansion to Assassin’s Creed Mirage known as Valley of Memory. It has already put up a short teaser trailer for the new DLC add-on, but the full reveal of the new free update on the now two-year old AC title is set to go live today, and very soon at that. 

As part of its early Prime Big Deal Days offers, Amazon is now offering its best price ever on the Apple Watch Magnetic Fast Charger with USB-C.

Amazon’s early Prime Big Deal Days sale is now in full swing, with plenty of notable offers already up for grabs. While you certainly need to be careful jumping on deals today and over this weekend ahead of the main event, after many years of experience on the matter we have compiled a list of notable disocunts you can rest assured are either already live or very close to the price we are going to see next week. From Apple gear and upgrades for your smart home, to power stations and e-bikes, Amazon’s in-house tech that is already at Prime Day pricing to all-new releases not likely to drop any lower next week, you’ll find our favorite early Prime Day deals to shop right now down below.

The official 2025 fall Target Circle Week ad has arrived. As you know Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days early offers are already live and the official sale will begin next week on October 7, but Target’s massive Circle Week sale will be going live a couple days before that. As we reported previously, Target will be running a weeklong event to take on the fall Prime Day sale that will kick off this weekend and we now have the actual official 55-page Target Circle Week ad  for you to scope out below. 

While somewhat divisive in terms of design, I personally love the SANDMARC iPhone 17 Pro/Pro Max metal and leather cases. In previous year’s, the brand’s unique metal cage camera array protection was only available for the pro-grade iPhone models, but with the launch of Apple’s new thin-as-Air handset, it has decided to expand its reach and deliver its all-new iPhone Air Pro Leather Case in black or brown – and we have an exclusive deal for you using code 9TO5TOYS at checkout. 

Update: The new Desert Gold Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have also surfaced on Amazon today.

We recently had a chance to go hands-on with the brand new QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth Earbuds (2nd Gen) and loved very second of it. They debuted with three color options at $299, but a new Desert Gold – Limited Edition treatment seems to have just leaked on Amazon at $279 shipped. 

There’s no telling how long this one might last, but it looks like you can score the popular Affinity image manipulation and editing apps for FREE right now using the steps below. 

Today Anker unleashed its all-new 2025 range of Prime charging gear, complete with onboard displays, 25W MagSafe action, and more. We have already detailed the early launch deals right here, as well as a feature on the brand new 25W 3-in-1 MagSafe Charging Stand with onboard cooling, a display of its own, and the companion app, but now we are taking a look at the launch deal on, what is for many, another highlight from the new releases – the Anker Prime Power Bank (26K, 300W). Details below. 

If you’re not sold on the new Galaxy Watch 8, or just don’t want to drop the $350+ to nab one, Amazon is now serving up one of its best prices ever on the still more than capable Galaxy Watch 7 – you can score one down at $158.99 shipped. 

Just after recently detailing the brand’s new iPhone 17 case collection, today we have secured readers an exclusive 20% off the entire collection of UAG Apple Watch bands. Compatible with the new Apple Watch Ultra 3 and Series 11, as well as previous-gen models, deals on UAG bands do not come around all too often but you can now use code 9to5watch at checkout to land a notable deals across its entire collect of models.

Alongside the new Kindle Colorsoft, Ring gear, Blink cams, and more, the headliner reveal of today’s show is the long-awaited next-generation Echo smart speakers and Echo Show smart displays. 

As part of today’s live event in NYC, the all-new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft has been revealed. This new reader-meets-tablet takes on all of the stylus action of the existing Kindle Scribe, but as the name suggests also delivers a full color screen like that of the existing Kindle Colorsoft. There’s some other new models too.

Update: Amazon’s new Fire TV Stick 4K Select streaming device is now up for pre-order at $40.

Considering how popular the announcement The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered was for 9to5Toys readers, we are doing something little bit different for this morning’s games post – the physical deluxe edition of the game is now live on Amazon for pre-order. While many expected the price to be much higher, you can now secure a physical copy of Oblivion Remastered on PS5 or Xbox Series X|S at $39.99 shipped – that’s less than the digital copy on the PlayStation Store. Now set for release on October 13, if you’re looking to secure a boxed copy for your collection, Amazon’s physical deluxe copy is now live with some extra goodies – a digital art book and soundtrack, new quests for a series of new armor, weapons, and horse armor sets, and the expected Shivering Isles & Knights of the Nine story expansions.

Today could be a big day for the Amazon Devices team as it is set to take the stage in NYC to reveal what appears to be the next-generation of Echo devices (likely some Kindle and Fire TV action too). While much of its current lineup of Echo smart speakers and devices, as well as some Kindles and the Fire TV Sticks are already seeing as much as 50% price drops as part of the early Prime Big Deals Days sale, the next-generation models appear to be on the horizon, and we will know all about them this morning. 

We haven’t quite seen lineup-wide clearance pricing yet on the now previous-gen Apple Watch Series 10, but there have been a couple configurations here and there hitting new all-time lows – much like we have today at Amazon. You will now find the 42mm Apple Watch Series 10 GPS + Cell starting down at $329 shipped. Originally $499, this is nearly 35% off and the best price we have ever tracked on Amazon. 

Logitech has now officially revealed the new MX Master 4 mouse. The long-awaited, and oft leaked new flagship mouse from the brand is surfacing in an official capacity today.

After the 30th anniversary PlayStation 5 hardware releases, and the 15th anniversary of PlayStation Plus, September 2025 marks the actual 30th anniversary of PlayStation in North America and Europe, and Sony isn’t finished the celebration yet.
