The giant pre-orders discounts on the new Galaxy Z Fold 8, Fold 8 Ultra, and Flip 8 roll on this weekend, and we waned to highlight the debut offers once again as Samsung can tend to start to remove some of the better bundle and bonus discounts as we push through the pre-order window. As of right now you can still score a FREE $200 Samsung credit that can result in as much as $230 of Galaxy Watch 9, $300 off Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, and even a FREE pair of Galaxy Buds 4 when added to your order. And if you’re not leveraging the enhanced trade-in values you can also use code PAYPAL still at checkout to knock another $100 off your order. 

PlayStation has officially announced that it will stop producing physical games discs, and some folks are not happy about it. And while this move isn’t expected to happen for over a year from now, almost all physical games on the official PlayStation Store are already out of stock. 

The Galaxy Z Fold 8, Fold 8 Ultra, and Flip 8 pre-order deals are still flying over at Samsung. But unless you’re trading in a relatively newer device, or are specifically looking to bundle the phone up with the new watches or buds, the up to $350 in FREE credit Amazon is offering might be even more valuable for you. 

While we are still awaiting the official release date for Switch 2’s biggest release of the year – The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, as well as an official launch for FromSoft’s The Duskbloods, it is time to take stock of the games confirmed to be landing on Switch in 2026. There is a long list of titles already locked down for 2026, from James Bond and brick-built Batman to the new Switch Sports Resort game, the Kingdom Hearts collection, and more. Let’s dive in. 

Over the weekend, we saw a new trailer drop at San Diego Comic Con 2026 for the next installment of the Avengers movies, and shortly after, LEGO and Marvel also ripped the veil off five new Avengers: Doomsday sets that will be hitting the market this fall – and four of them are now officially available to pre-order ahead of release. Not only do these sets give you some incredible builds filled with plenty of story elements and texture, but they also provide a nice selection of minifigures to populate and bring those story elements to life.

If you do prefer to grab your pre-order elsewhere though, you might want to avoid the Best Buy offers – it is offering notable trade-in values…but they are better straight from Samsung, and it is offering $200 gift cards…but Amazon is offering up to $350 gift cards. 

While all of the latest PlayStation news has been surrounding Sony’s insistence on ridding its gaming ecosystem of disc-based gaming, despite waves of backlash, one title you will be able to score on disc is the new Marvel’s Wolverine game set for release later this year.
