SAVE ON GREAT GAMING GEAR THIS PRIME DAY

THERE IS NO escaping Amazon Prime Day today. It’s the biggest sale day of the year for the biggest online retailer. We’ve already named our picks for the Best Amazon Prime Day 2018 Deals, along with some Home Deals and the Best Amazon Device Deals. But if you’re a gamer (no matter if you prefer the PC, PlayStation, Xbox, or a Nintendo console), be sure to peruse the deals below. We’ve sifted through about 58,000 Prime Day deals, and there are a few you might be interested in.

We’ve separated the deals into console and PC categories. We’ll add new deals throughout Prime Day, as we find them.

Console Deals

Be sure to check out our Best Switch Bundles, Xbox Bundles, and PS4 Bundles if you’re searching for a PS4 Pro, Xbox One X, or something particular.

• Xbox One S Bundle + Rare Replay for $230 (Was $295) – The Starter Bundle comes with 3 months of Xbox Game Pass (Netflix for Xbox games), 3 months of Xbox Live Gold (to play online multiplayer), and a free copy of Rare Replay, which has 30 classic Rareware games in it.
• Nintendo New 3DS XL SNES Edition for $150 (Was $199) – The 3DS is not a new system anymore, but Nintendo continues to support it with amazing games like Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker and others. With a huge library of games, it’s still worth a buy for a kid (or a kid at heart), and this version is made to look like the classic Super NES. Amazon also has some retro games like Super Mario World on sale for 3DS.
• Nintendo Switch + Game on Walmart for $330 (Was $360)– It’s not an Amazon deal, but we thought you might want to know about this deal anyway. Normally the Switch is $300 by itself, but for $330, you get the system and a $60 game—your choice of Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Zelda: Breath of the Wild, or Splatoon 2. These are four of the Best Games on Switch.

Console Accessory Deals

We like all of these Prime Day deals, but our Best Switch Accessories and Best PS4 Accessories guides are also good resources if you’re looking for other recommended console accessories.

• 128GB MicroSD Card (Switch, etc) for $24 (Was $50) – This MicroSD card is on backorder, but you can still order it. Usually 128GB cards aren’t priced lower than $35, and they average around $45. The 64GB card for $14 is also a good deal. You can get a 200GB card for $55 as well, which is a good price.
• WD 2TB External Hard Drive (PS4) for $59 (Was $90) – If your PS4 hard drive is anywhere close to filling up, and it’s not hard if you own games like GTA V, you should consider an external hard drive. This one is compatible with PS4 and at a very good price.
• Xbox Controller Charging Station for $17 (Was $25) – This AmazonBasics charger can keep two controllers juiced up at once.
• Logitech G920 Racing Wheel & Pedals (Xbox One) for $200 (Was $400) – This racing wheel is highly reviewed. Here are the racing games it’s compatible with.

Gaming Headset Deals

There are a few different gaming headset deals for Prime Day. We recommend the HyperX Cloud II the highest, and have fully tested it, but the rest of these headsets are also high quality and praised in in reviews. Read our Best Wireless Gaming Headsets for more suggestions.

• HyperX Cloud II Gaming Headset for $70 (Was $99)WIRED Recommends
• Corsair HS70 Wireless Gaming Headset (PC/PS4) for $70 (Was $99) – $70 is a very good price for a wireless headset. Typically, they start around $90, and many of them are $150+.
• Corsair Void Pro Gaming Headset for $60 (Was $80) – This headset looks funny, but it’s actually pretty comfortable and sounds great. The wireless version is also on sale.
• Logitech G231 Gaming Headset for $35 (Was $70) – A basic, but high quality headset that should work on all systems, including Switch.

Gaming PC Deals

None of these PCs are made for VR, but they’re very capable gaming machines.

• iBuyPower Gaming Desktop PC for $1,000 (Was $1,149) – iBuyPower isn’t as famous as some other brands but they’ve been making computers for years. The specs on this tower are impressive: Intel Core i7 (8th Gen) CPU, 3GB Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 GPU, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 120GB SSD, 1TB hard drive, Windows 10 Home, liquid cooling, and an RGB case (for whatever that’s worth).
• Asus 15-inch Gaming Laptop for $729 (Was $999) – This is a decent mid-range gaming laptop, and very nice for the price with an Intel Core i7 (7th Gen) CPU, 4GB Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050, 128GB SSD, 1TB hard drive, 8GB DDR4 RAM, Windows 10 Home, and a 1080p screen.
• Dell 15-inch Gaming Laptop for $910 (Was $1,300) – This is a deal from Dell during Prime Day. It’s not powerful enough for VR, but this is a solid gaming laptop. It has an Intel i7 (7th Gen) CPU, 4GB Nvidia GTX 1050 GPU, 16GB RAM, and 512GB SSD storage.

PC Accessory Deals

• LG 34-Inch Curved Ultrawide Gaming Monitor for $385 (Was $509) – We’ve used LG’s non-curved 34-inch monitor and highly recommend it. A curve isn’t necessary for gaming, but it is nice, and if you’re going to buy a monitor, you should consider an ultrawide. There are no downsides—just a lot more screen space.
• Razer Lancehead Gaming Mouse for $48 (Was $80) – This wired mouse is simple, and built for gaming. It has 16,000 DPI and tracks at 450 inches per second. Reviews are positive across the web.
• Corsair Strafe Mechanical Gaming Keyboard for $75 (Was $140) – Full RGB lighting and Cherry MX gaming key switches. You can reprogram any key.
• Logitech G910 Gaming Keyboard for $90 (Was $180) – This mechanical keyboard definitely has that gaudy PC-gaming look to it, but it has some nice customizations for players, including 9 programmable G-keys and a quick control panel.
