9 Switch Games You Can Grab For Cheap This Memorial Day

9 Switch Games You Can Grab For Cheap This Memorial Day

Yahoo30-05-2025
Memorial Day weekend invites important questions like what to marinate the kebobs in, whether it's warm enough to put the pool up or not, and which new game you should buy while continuing to ignore your backlog. The Switch eShop currently has a few sales running that are worth a quick peek while waiting for the 45 minutes of coming attractions ahead of Mission Impossible 8 to end.
If you're looking at physical Switch games, there are a few good deals going around at the moment. Advance Wars 1 and 2 Re-Boot Camp is currently just $30 at GameStop (half off) while Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is just $40 (33 percent off) at Amazon. 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, Catherine: Full Body, and Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne HD Remaster are all heavily discounted as well at VGP.
Meanwhile, in the digital world of the eShop, the following games are all great and pretty cheap right now:
Prince of Persia The Lost Crown - $20 (50 percent off)
It Takes Two - $20 (50 percent off)
Tales of Kenzera: ZAU - $8 (60 percent off)
Monster Hunter Rise + Sunbreak Deluxe - $20 (71 percent off)
Dead Cells - $12.50 (50 percent off)
Penny's Big Breakaway - $15 (50 percent off)
Doom 2016 - $4 (80 percent off)
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Complete Edition - $15 (75 percent off)
Rayman Legends Definitive Edition - $8 (80 percent off)
The Witcher 3 port is just short of ugly on Switch, but if you have no other way to play the grim fantasy RPG it's well worth picking up, especially on the game's 10th anniversary. Doom 2016 runs and looks better, and should help sate the urge to rip and tear for Nintendo fans who can't access Doom: The Dark Ages. If you just want a fun, colorful throwback to pass the time, my suggestion is Penny's Big Breakaway, one of last year's great unsung Dreamcast 3D platformer homages.
There are two other Switch games that are only slightly on sale but might be of interest. The Chrono Trigger-like Sea of Stars is currently $22.75 (around 30 percent off), but just got a big free Throes of the Watchmaker DLC that adds a new eight-hour quest, additional character, and more classes. Labyrinth of the Demon King, meanwhile, is a lo-fi horror dungeon crawler that just came out last week and is already turning heads. It's $16 this week (20 percent off). If you're interested in what might end up on the list of 2025's most overlooked games, I'd give this one a shot.

Amazon's Freevee app gets an expiry date, but here's how to keep watching for free

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Amazon confirmed plans to sunset its free streaming service, Freevee, late last year. The company has now notified users that the Freevee app will be shut down in August 2025. Freevee's extensive library of movies, TV shows, and live TV will be available through Prime Video. After announcing plans to wind down its free video streaming service late last year, Amazon has now confirmed that the Freevee app will finally be shut down in August. But there's some good news for those who enjoy Freevee's vast library of TV shows, movies, and live TV. Amazon recently alerted users via an in-app notice that it will take the Freevee app offline in August 2025 (via TechCrunch). However, Freevee's extensive library of free, ad-supported content isn't going away. The notice adds that Prime Video is the 'new exclusive home' for Freevee content, and users can continue watching their 'favorite Freevee Originals, and our library of hit movies, shows, and live TV on Prime Video for free, no subscription needed.' The notice even includes a link to Prime Video and instructs users to download the app and sign in with their Amazon account to watch Freevee content, which is available within the app's 'Watch for Free' section. Since Freevee is available in the US, UK, Germany, and Austria, its library will likely be available on Prime Video only in these regions. It's not immediately clear whether Amazon intends to bring Freevee content to more locations. Will you download Prime Video to continue watching Freevee content, or switch to a different free streaming service like Pluto TV, Roku Channel, or Tubi? Let us know in the comments below. Got a tip?

MacBook Air M4 just dropped to record-low price ahead of Prime Day — save up to $160 now

We're gearing up for some major price cuts across our favorite tech during Prime Day, but why wait when the entire MacBook Air M4 lineup is already down to the lowest prices I've seen? The MacBook Air M4 is now a record-low $150 off at Amazon right now, meaning you can grab one of the best laptops around for less. But that's not all, as you can even get $150 off the M4 Air with 24GB memory and 512GB storage, too. Looking for a bigger screen? Well, the 15-inch MacBook Air M4 is also over $160 off! Whether it's a compact and stylishly portable 13-inch M4 MacBook Air or a satisfyingly sized 15-inch model, there's a discount on all configurations. So, take your pick and get saving! The latest 13-inch MacBook Air M4 is Apple's greatest offering yet, and it's not only because of its speedy performance thanks to the M4 chip or its upgraded 12MP webcam. It's $100 less than its predecessor, and with that extra $100 off, you're getting one of the best laptops on the market at an epic price. Expect 16GB of unified memory and a 256 SSD in the model, but for more speed and storage, you can get the same discount. MacBook Air M4 (16GB/512GB): was $1,199 now $1,049MacBook Air M4 (24GB/512GB): was $1,399 now $1,249 One of the best laptops with an even bigger screen? You got it. Boasting a 15.3-inch (2880 x 1864) Liquid Retina display, that's more screen real estate for work, watching shows and even some gaming. Better yet, its more powerful configurations are also discounted, and even $163 off for top-tier performance. MacBook Air M4 (16GB/512GB): was $1,399 now $1,249MacBook Air M4 (24GB/512GB): was $1,599 now $1,436 Apple's latest swing at its ultraportable laptop is a triumph, as you'll find in our MacBook Air M4 review. It earned major brownie points with its blistering-fast M4 chip and sharper 12MP webcam. Its design is no different from the earlier MacBook Air M3, and having used that as my main PC for over a year now, I can say these laptops are without a doubt worth the investment. And now with the M4-equipped MacBook Air getting steep discounts, one of the best laptops is now better than ever. At $849, the 13-inch model hit its all-time-low price, but if you're looking to grab the finest version of the Air without dishing out too much, the 512GB model for $1,049 is the one to pick up. And if you have the budget for the 24GB of unified memory version, expect some incredible performance. While the higher SSD capacity means you can save more files, media and apps, it also delivers higher read/write speeds, according to our MacBook Air M4 benchmark tests. It's able to handle storage better with faster video transcoding times, as we spotted in our 15-inch MacBook Air M4 (512GB) review. Speaking of, you can also make great savings on the 15-inch model, which offers a bright, smooth and vivid 15.3-inch (2880 x 1864) Liquid Retina display. That's great for having more space for onscreen windows and apps, along with watching the latest shows on Apple TV and more. Oh, and playing top-rated games like Lies of P, Assassin's Creed Shadows, Resident Evil 4 Remake, Death Stranding and plenty more. Amazon's big sale event is right around the corner, but these deals on the entire MacBook Air M4 family are already too good to miss. So, if you're looking to beat the Prime Day rush, grab yourself a steal on the best laptop for most. For even more stellar deals, the best Prime Day laptop deals will point you in the right direction.
