Today’s Top Deals: Monster Hunter Wilds, 11th Gen iPad, Xbox Series X, and More

Ah, the weekend stroll through digital aisles. Not that I’m procrastinating, but here’s what caught my eye. Got distracted by a deal on “Monster Hunter Wilds” — who comes up with those names? Anyway, $54.99 it says here. Probably worth it, especially if you’re into these wild creature hunts. A friend once said it’s beginner-friendly, not that I’ve won any hunts myself. Focus Mode sounds like something I’d turn on and then forget I did.

Oh, and iPads. Who doesn’t love them, right? The 11th Gen one, they say, is down to $299. Has this A16 chip — not to geek out, but it sounds impressive. Can do magic stuff with a Magic Keyboard. Or so they claim. Personally, I’m all about trying to copy and paste across devices seamlessly, and failing every time.

Now, “Ghost of Yotei,” ever heard of it? I hadn’t till I scrolled down. Atsu’s revenge — sounds like a Saturday night movie marathon theme. It gives me “Ghost of Tsushima” vibes but set in Hokkaido. Definitely on my radar.

Switching gears (literally, sort of), “Visions of Mana.” It’s $34.99, if you’re keeping tabs here. An RPG comeback story, full of those mysterious new class systems. I rated it once (don’t ask me how) an 8/10. Could be nostalgia talking. But hey, worth a look if you’re into epic quests and saving worlds from… whatever darkness is looming this time.

Here’s a twist: Xbox Series X is doing this price dance. Who knew gaming consoles had such drama? $479.99, which… wow, that’s $120 less than what they want soon. Honestly, no clue how long this will last, so maybe go hit that ‘buy now’ button? Or don’t, live life on the edge.

LEGO Star Wars for a mere $10! Yeah, you heard me. Maybe I’m biased, but who doesn’t want to relive the galaxies through LEGO blocks and cheeky humor? Plus, nine full films and those quirky side characters from the newer shows? Steal of the day, I’d say.

Lastly, let’s not forget Mario’s crew in “Super Mario Party Jamboree.” $44.99 this weekend. You could hold out for the Switch 2 upgrade. But then, why wait when the party’s already started? Ah, Nintendo, always one step ahead in emptying my wallet.

Done here, I think. Maybe go take a walk outside? Or click a few deals before they’re gone. You do you.
