Which JRPG titles to grab this Black Friday
There are a number of great deals ahead for JRPG players this holiday season.
Nier Automata and Persona 5 can be readily had for over half off, and there’s great opportunities to grab new Pokemon titles on the 3DS for cheap.
This could also be a good time to dive into the Yakuza series with either Yakuza 0 or Yakuza Kiwami going on sale at several stores.
Personally, I’m going to try and snag Disagea 5 Complete for the Switch ($19.99 at Best Buy!), and perhaps the Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX as well.
What games are you looking out for this holiday season?
Be sure to keep an eye out for earlier online openings and for big retailers like Amazon and Steam to reveal their listings.
Or check back here, as the table will be updated constantly as more stores reveal their ads for Black Friday.
Also, quick heads up on the ongoing NIS America sale on Steam. These deals will run through the 20th.
