With this news, they’ve decided to drop prices on the Rift and Touch to $598 at Amazon to give customers an extra incentive to buy.

Sony is offering 3 extra months of PS Plus and Showtime for new/existing subscribers: $60 ($112 value)

Avatar for Justin Kahn Feb 28 2017 - 4:20 pm PT
0 Comments

(Update 2/28 4:50pm): Trusted games dealer Neogames via eBay Daily Deals is offering 1 year PlayStation Plus memberships for $43.99 shipped. That’s $16 under the regular price and the current lowest total on a 12 month subscription (about $3.60 per month).

Sony has just kicked off a special PlayStation Plus membership promotion. If you choose to purchase a new 12-month subscription or renew your existing sub, Sony will throw in an extra 3 months of Plus membership and Showtime via PlayStation Vue (a total “value of $111.95”). The catch is you have to purchase the Plus membership through Sony at full price ($59.99) and Showtime is only available to “new Showtime subscribers via Playstation Vue”.

While on a monthly basis that might be slightly more expensive than some of the offers we see on 12-month PS Plus memberships, those deals are quite rare these days. For some (including me), just knowing you won’t have to worry about the renewal process for another 15 months it is worth it, not to mention the added value of the Showtime sub. If you’re looking to get the lowest possible price on your PS Plus subscription, you might want to hold off on this one until a 3rd party retailer offers them for less.

(Update 2/28 6:00pm): Nintendo has now confirmed a massive list of Indie titles for Switch with the new Nindies Showcase video. You’ll find everything down below (scroll all the way down to the bottom of this post):


We this is it folks, the release of Nintendo Switch is just over a week away. While the launch lineup may not be as crowded as some of us may have hoped for, The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild is hitting day one, and that’s about as good as it gets. But we are also getting some nice indies on day one and Nintendo looks to be tapping third parties more than ever before if the rest of the titles we have heard about are any indication. From a new FIFA, NBA 2K and the Switch version of Skyrim, along with first parties like Mario Kart Deluxe 8, Arms, Super Mario Odyssey and Splatoon 2, it looks as though things can only get better from here.

As any avid 9to5Toys reader would know, Nintendo games don’t go on sale very often (even after being out for years) until they finally land in the Selects program. And even when they do go on sale it is rarely much of a price drop. This is where early pre-order discounts (20% off), can be really advantageous. Down below you’ll find an itemized list of the best titles releasing for Switch this year including all the launch titles playable on March 3rd, the best deals on pre-order titles (you certainly want to make sure your copy of Breath of the Wild is ready to play on day one), and even more:

Anytime (which is extremely rare) you can grab a brand new Xbox One S for under $200, you probably should.

Having said that, Microsoft Store is currently offering the same bundle for $249.99 shipped with a free game of your choice. The value of the eligible titles (added during checkout) ranges to about $20 or so with Watch Dogs and Assassin’s Creed Syndicate being the standouts.

Last week we took a look at the Paperback and Collector’s Edition Guides for Zelda Breath of the Wild. But its time to take it up a notch with the beautiful Deluxe Edition.

This version comes with 384 pages of everything we detailed in the other two including annotated maps, posters, information regarding collectibles and a complete guide to the items and monsters found in the game. But the Deluxe Edition will also feature that amazing 11-inch x 15-inch premium vintage hardcover, “exclusive dedicated 16-page retrospective celebrating thirty years of Zelda games, a 16-page dedicated art section, and two ribbon bookmarks.” More details below.

While the Paperback and Collector’s Edition Guides are now reasonably priced at $15.33 and $23.99, the Deluxe version is going to cost you. Pre-orders with a March 31st launch date are now selling for $79.99 shipped on Amazon, but there is a good chance we will see the price drop over the next couple weeks or so.

We are getting new lighting, animations, enhancements to the intro cinematic and support for 4K via PS4 Pro. Developer Vicarious Visions has also added new checkpoints, an upgraded save system, improved bonus stages and updated audio across the board.

The Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy contains the titular character’s first three outings: Crash Bandicoot, Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back and Crash Bandicoot: Warped. It will be available June 30th on PS4/Pro for $39.99. Available for pre-order now. 

While the price does seem a bit steep, anyone with fond memories of early 3D platformers is in for a treat here. Even if the visuals didn’t look as good as they do in the announcement trailer below, I’d still be pretty stoked for this:

The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild is getting two expansion packs later this year and a season pass [Video]

Avatar for Justin Kahn Feb 14 2017 - 3:32 pm PT
0 Comments

Breath of the Wild is primed to set a new standard for Zelda titles with its massive open world, but Link’s latest adventure will also be treading new ground for the series in other ways as well. For the first time, Nintendo will be launching expansion packs and a season pass for a main Zelda title.

There will be two packs of additional content for the game launching throughout 2017 and you’ll need to buy the “Expansion Pass” to get them. The first bundle will include a “Cave of Trials challenge” similar to what we saw in Twilight Princess, a new hard mode and a “new feature for the in-game map.” The second bundle will be the more substantial of the two with a “new dungeon and a new original story.” This sucker will launch holiday 2017 after most of us have already gotten through the main story.

You can’t purchase these bundles separately at this point, you have to purchase the Expansion Pass, which will be available for both the Nintendo Switch and Wii U versions of the game for $19.99. Anyone who purchases or pre-purchases the Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild Expansion Pass will get “three new treasure chests” that will appear in the Great Plateau area of the in-game map. One contains a silly Nintendo Switch shirt Link can wear throughout his adventure and the other two “deliver useful items”.

As exciting as it is to think there will be more content added to Breath of the Wild later this year, it does seem a bit weird Nintendo is charging for a hard mode and a Cave of Trials. Nonetheless, I for one will be very excited to get a completely new story come holiday 2017.

Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild releases March 3rd alongside Nintendo Switch. Amazon Prime members can pre-order Breath of the Wild right now for $47.99 shipped, but we are yet to see listings for the new Expansion Pass at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop or Walmart. More details below.

More Breath of the Wild and Nintendo Switch:

Starting when The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild launches on March 3, players will be able to purchase an Expansion Pass for $19.99, granting access to two new sets of downloadable content for the game when they become available later this year.

Immediately upon pre-purchase or purchase of the Expansion Pass, three new treasure chests will appear in the game’s Great Plateau area. One of these treasure chests will contain a shirt with a Nintendo Switch logo that Link can wear during his adventure, exclusive to the Expansion Pass. The other two will deliver useful items.

  • The first content pack is scheduled to launch this summer and will include the addition of a Cave of Trials challenge, a new hard mode, and a new feature for the in-game map.
  • The second content pack will launch in Holiday 2017, and adds new challenges that will let players enjoy a new dungeon and a new original story.

The Expansion Pass will be available for both the Nintendo Switch and Wii U versions of the game and are identical. Content packs cannot be purchased individually.

Sony does a decent job of offering up special edition PS4s in different colors/designs and even Colorware made a pretty fantastic PS1-style retro print. But we haven’t seen anything like these new PS4 TOAST covers before.

If you’re looking for a more elegant look for your PlayStation or just want to tie it in with your decor, these real wood covers might be worth a look.

They are removable if you change your mind, but they are not meant to be re-applied afterwards. More details below.

If you haven’t got a PS4 to cover just yet, make sure you don’t pay full price. We have some nice options in the Games/Apps roundup and Sony just announced official price drops coming right around the corner.

(Update 2/17 11:11am): Both the Collector’s Edition Hardcover ($23.99) and the Standard Edition ($15.33) have now dropped in price.

We are literally a few weeks away from what might be the most anticipated release of the year with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The game is shaping up to be one of the largest and deepest Zelda titles to date. With its gorgeous open world and what appears to be a much more mature approach to RPG systems, we really couldn’t be any more excited for it.

Along with some brand new screenshots from the game below, we have now spotted the pre-order for the official guide going up on Amazon. You can choose between the Paperback Guide or the Official Collector’s Edition Hardcover Guide.

Both editions are packed with goodies to help you through Link’s latest journey including a comprehensive reference guide to the creatures and items in the game, a map poster of the over world, walkthroughs and more.

However, the Collector’s Edition comes with the beautiful hardcover seen above, an “extra-large map poster and a dedicated 16-page art section.” More details below.

The Complete Official Guide Collector’s Edition Hardcover pre-order goes for $39.99 $23.99 and the Standard Edition will run you $24.99 $15.33, both with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $49. They will release on March 3rd alongside Nintendo Switch, The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild ($48 shipped for Prime members) and the latest wave of amiibo.

You have just hours left to win an NES Classic and feast your eyes on these brand new Breath of the Wild screens courtesy of Game Informer:
