It's not Amazon Prime Day 2021, but it is, crucially, another big Amazon sales blow out. It's the Amazon Mid-Year Sale 2021, which coincides with the usual end of financial year salesfest that sweeps Australia. It's a boon for gamers, because it means those already-market beating pr🔜ices are even lower.

It's also a ൲boon for folk who don't have, or don't want, an Amazon Prime subscription. Sure, having one won't hurt - you're more likely to enjoy free shipping - but the vast majority of these deals don't require a membership. In that way, it's even better, though who knows what surprises the next Prime Day has in store for us.

Below is a selection of the best deals we've found. Keep checking back: we'll keep adding them for as long as the sales period lasts. We are expecting some massive 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Prime Day PS5 deals next month too as the drought of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PS5 stock might finally come to an end. The 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Prime Day laptop deals and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Prime Day TV deals will be worth a look for sure too.


Nintendo deals

| AU$98 (usually AU$149.95)
A generous AU$50 off this extremely fun living room take on Mario Kart, available in both and sets (notice how we listed Luigi first? The way it should be). If you're no🍸t across how it works: you control a re൲al-life kart figurine in your home, which is the backdrop of the track you're playing on your console. Pretty sweet.

| AU$399 (usually AU$469.95)
A pinch under AU$🦂70 savings on the Nintendo Switch, if you're brave enough to bite the bullet before the rumoured hardware upgrade hits the market later this year. This discount aꦆpplies to both the neon blue and red model, as well as the more reserved grey version. 

| AU$82 (usually AU$99.95)
If you're playing first-person shooters or just like to play your Switch docked more often then not, then a Switch Pro Controller is pretty much essential. Amazon discounts these quite often, but this is as good a time as any to pick one up for AU$18 lower than the RR𝓀P.

| AU$97 (usually AU$124.95)
A nice AU$27.95 off this fitness-focused Nintendo Switch package, which bundles the Ring Fit Adventure peripheral with the fitness-oriented adventure game (you'll be smitꦗing monsters and stuff - Wii Fit this ain't). A nice❀ way to get the kids moving around the loungeroom.

| AU$95.72 (usually AU$119.95)
If you're a heavy user of your Switch, you're almost certainly going to need a replacement Joy-Con pair at some stage: that stick drift everyone online complains about? Chances are it's going to happen to you. Might as well get them while they're꧂ cheap.

for Nintendo Switch | AU$58 (usually AU$79.95)
This is one of the most critically acclaimed Switch games of 2021, and if Zelda stays out of the way, will probably end up GOTY. The Monster Hunter series is perfect for handheld, and this is a brilliant hybrid of old school Monster Hunter and the🌳 modern trappings of Monster Hunter World.

| AU$30 (usually AU$49.95)
Fancy a sprawling first-person RPG by the creators of Fallout: New Vegas? Of course you do. This Switch version may not be the prettiest way to play the game, but a big exploration-focused adventure is a 🌱great fit for the train or bus. 

PlayStation deals

| AU$87 (usually AU$109.95)
The 𓆏PS5's DualSense Controller is enough of an advancement over the DualShock 4 that you'd expect a price hike, but it's still nice to pay under AU$90 for a second controller, or a replacement. This discount pops up often on Amazon, but don't get caught out needing to pay full price.

Loads of PS4 games for cheap | starting from AU$10
Get your fill of some of the last generation's biggest games, ranging all-time classics like The Last of Us Part 2, through to great but less-celebrated VR offerings. Take note that a handf𒆙ul of these games, including Days Gone, Ghost of Tsushima and The Last of Us Part 2, have performance modes on PS5.

| AU$63.62 (usually AU$89.95)
While the DualSense ha💦s usurped it as the best gamepad going around, the DualShock 4 is still a mighty piece of tech, and it'll work on th🧸e PS5 with PS4 games (though not with PS5 games... yet). It's always wise to have a spare one of these around.

| AU$369 (usually AU$439.95)
What's next-gen? Seems to be this big ✅battle to buy a console that doesn't even seem to exist. If the PS5's tech doesn't impress you and you just want to dive into a huge catal▨ogue of 1000s of games, the PS4 is still a mighty machine, and this is a mighty discount.

Xbox deals

| AU$449 (usually AU$499)
This may not be as next-gen as the Series X (which is still pretty hard to get), but it's a damn fine♏ way to enjoy games with more clarity, smoothness and speed than the 🤡last-gen had to offer. Oh, and it's the perfect device if you just want to dive into Xbox Game Pass.
