Welcome back to another week of savings! I know some of you are sporting a Shadow of the Erdtree<\/strong> hangover right now\u2014because I’ve already served my time in those salt mines<\/a>\u2014so I’ll be brief. Today is all about securing the cheapest preorders from the most recent Nintendo Connect, and PS5 hardware is uncharacteristically reduced for EOFY purposes. Make a play for a ‘Station while you can, I guess?\n<\/p>\n

In retro news, I’m celebrating the 27th birthday of my personal favourite moustache racer, Mario Kart 64<\/strong>. What sold me was its first-in-series 4P multi, and probably about a hundred hours spent doing “winner plays on” 150cc VS. Mode and Block Fort balloon battles at a mate’s house. When the surf was crap in Kiama, his place was basically a youth drop in centre\u2014just a constant state of shoulder-to-shoulder competition. Some of the best gaming years of my life.<\/p>\n
