Black Friday 2019: Our Top Five Amazon Deals for iOS, Nintendo Switch, and More

Ahead of Thanksgiving, almost every online retailer has loads of games, hardware, and more discounted for Black Friday and Cyber Monday. While there are loads of games discounted on the App Store already (link to post), iOS 13 has allowed for some already great games on iOS to be much better. If you’ve been reading TouchArcade in recent years, you know how much we also love the Nintendo Switch. The set of deals below covers iOS, Nintendo Switch, and has a special extra.

1. DualShock 4 Controller (Crystal) – $38.99
This is probably the most popular controller in general with native support on PS4 (obviously), Steam, and now iOS 13. While I’d still recommend getting the Xbox One controller, getting a DualShock 4 hasn’t been cheaper. A few of the colour options are available at this price.

2. Xbox One Wireless Controller – $39.00
This is the best overall controller for mobile if you play on PC as well as iOS. Most PC games have native Xbox One button support and this works great with Steam Link. I’ve linked a variant I like but you can go with anything. The Sport controllers are mostly sold out but they are worth looking into for a better overall grip and feel compared to the regular controller. Many Xbox One controllers are down to $39.00 right now.

3. SanDisk 400GB Ultra MicroSDXC card – $49.99
You can never have too much storage space on your Nintendo Switch and prices will likely keep going lower as we get closer to Black Friday and eventually Cyber Monday. If you’ve just gotten a Nintendo Switch, I’d recommend either a 256 GB or 400 GB Micro SD card. If you’re feeling like it, you can even get a 512 GB one through the same link above by clicking on the variant. Game sizes are continuing to increase and some games force you into large downloads.

4. Hori D-Pad Controller (Mario) – $19.40
If you play a lot of retro games or fighting games on Nintendo Switch, you’ve probably already realised how bad the stock Joy-Con “d-pad" or lack thereof is for the aforementioned genres. This Hori D-Pad controller that replaces the left Joy-Con isn’t perfect since you give up HD Rumble but it gets the job done for a d-pad at least. There are a few colour options but the Mario one is the cheapest right now.

BONUS: SEGA Genesis Mini – $49.99 (or $45 in the DOTD)
Nintendo’s mini consoles no doubt made many publishers and hardware manufacturers look into cashing in on nostalgia. While Nintendo did a pretty good job with the NES Classic Mini and the SNES Classic Mini, Sony’s PlayStation mini was a flop overall and it has regularly been heavily discounted. SEGA’s SEGA Genesis Mini on the other hand is pretty great. Shaun did an in depth look at it and how it stacks up against SEGA Forever. Check it out here. The SEGA Genesis Mini is available for $49.99 down from $79.99 for a limited time.

A lot of these deals are likely also available in more online stores. If you buy any of them through our links on Amazon, it helps TouchArcade in a small way and you get some great hardware at a discount for a limited time.

‘Franz’ is a Strange Mashup of Texting-Based Adventure and “Angry Tamagotchi” from the Makers of ‘Pathologic’ and ‘Knock-Knock’

That is quite a headline, but, Franz is the kind of gaming experience that can’t be easily summarized. It’s an ambitious and unique new project from developer Ice-Pick Lodge, who made their name with the open-world horror FPS Pathologic and have also dabbled in mobile with their truly weird survival horror title Knock-Knock Game , which we reviewed back in 2014 . Ice-Pick has grown to become a fan-favorite developer due to their somewhat twisted and unconventional take on developing and storytelling, and “twisted and unconventional" are two extremely apt descriptors for their upcoming title Franz . What even is Franz ? I guess if you had to summarize, Ice-Pick describes it as “a hybrid between an SMS novel and an angry version of tamagotchi" but it also seems like the type of thing that doesn’t really have anything else before it to compare to. You can watch a very cryptic teaser trailer just below followed by a fascinating behind-the-scenes video where the game’s art dire...

Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for July 31st, 2019. I managed to spend half of my birthday sick in bed, but I got a sweet birthday cake from my wife and some nice Spider-Man loot, so it’s hard to be upset. In today’s article, we’ve got a review of the recent shoot-em-up release Pawarumi , summaries of today’s trio of new releases, some tasty news bits, and a bunch of cool sales to dig into. Let’s roll into it! News ‘Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’ Now Features the Hero from ‘Dragon Quest’ I actually got a prediction right for once! Praise me! Anyway, you probably already saw this, but during yesterday’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate video presentation about the latest DLC character, players were treated to the news that the Hero from Dragon Quest would be dropping later that day. That means he’s available right now! There are other Dragon Quest -related items that have been added to the game alongside him, like new Mii Fighter costumes and such. If you...

SwitchArcade Round-Up: ‘BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!’, ‘Moero Chronicle Hyper’, and Other New Releases, Ridiculous Amounts of Sales, and More

Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for Monday, April 29th. You may have noticed that there was no SwitchArcade on Friday. I had a bit of a medical emergency and it just wasn’t possible to put anything together. Sorry! But I’m okay now, and as such I’ve decided to catch up on everything I missed. No news or reviews today, but watch for those to make their returns tomorrow. Let’s catch up! New Releases Panty Party ($14.99) I still can’t believe this is a real game that exists and is available on the Nintendo eShop. But here we are. Take control of one of a large variety of flying panties and use your special abilities to attack the enemy panties. That sentence describes a real video game. Given that the game is rated E10+, you probably shouldn’t expect anything too provocative here. Rather, it’s a sort of absurdity that you play just to see stupid-looking situations. And you can even play four-player split-screen, provided you can find three friends that w...
