Best Buy

The Xenoblade Chronicles X Special Edition can now be ordered on Best Buy. Get yours here. Best Buy seems to be charging for shipping, but I imagine that’ll be corrected before release.

Update: These are all now price matched on Amazon (Smash Bros. Wii U is actually a bit less). However, some are for Prime members only. Also, some items are temporarily out of stock, but can still be ordered.


A select Nintendo games are on sale over at Best Buy. Through October 3, you can save on six Wii U and 3DS games.

Here’s the full list:

– Splatoon
– Mario Kart 7
– Mario Party 10 (including the amiibo bundle)
– Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
– Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D
– Animal Crossing: New Leaf

You can check out Best Buy’s official sale page here. We’ll let you know if Amazon does any price matching.

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer New 3DS was recently removed from GameStop’s website, likely due to low stock. However, it’s still available through Amazon.
