This coming weekend is the Memorial Day weekend; a long weekend for many in the US and one of the first big shopping holidays as far as retailers offer big discounts on technology. Some Memorial Day sales have already begun, involving games and consoles, including one of the best deals on the Nintendo Switch.
Google Express, Google's shopping platform, offers a promotional code that reduces the price of a selection of electronic products by 15%. This includes the Nintendo switch, which brings the console back to $ 243.95, the lowest price we've seen on a brand new (ie not refurbished) switch. This code also applies to other advanced technologies, including PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, as well as their gaming accessories.
Xbox One players also have very good deals to shoot this week. Wednesday is the last day to enjoy the best Xbox Game Pass contract so far – 3 months of the game subscription for $ 1. In addition, Microsoft launched a huge, backward-compatible sale on Tuesday, offering over 200 classic Xbox and Xbox 360 games optimized for Xbox One playback.
Finally, it is worth highlighting some contracts other than games. Amazon's voice-activated streaming device, Fire TV Cube, offers a $ 50 discount for Premium members, bringing it down to $ 69.99. And the Fanatical retailer, best known for its PC gaming sets, launches into the digital comic with two new sets including Tank girl and the titles Dynamite Comics.
As always, if we missed an agreement, please let us know on Twitter at @PolygonDeals.
