You can’t purchase Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast digitally on PC anymore, because the Ferrari license expired and it was removed from sale back in 2010. We live in a cruel universe. The excellent, stylish racing game is still playable if you do own a copy, however, and it just received a fan update that’ll make it run better on modern machines.
The weekend is here, and new deals have arrived alongside it! This weekend, you can find discounts on new games, accessories, hardware, and more. The best deals for Saturday, July 6, include Dragon’s Dogma 2, iPad Air, Logitech G PRO Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy, and more.
For the first time since release, Dragon’s Dogma 2 is available on sale. You can save $14 off Capcom’s latest RPG for a limited time at Amazon. We gave the game an 8/10 in our review, stating, “It is a retelling and reimplementation of all of those wonderful ideas from the 2012 cult-classic, including an awesome dynamic world and some of the best combat in the genre that integrates a subtle but amazingly complex physics system.”
Currently, Best Buy has the 5th Generation Apple iPad Air on sale for $399.99. This device features a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina Display, 64GB of storage, Wi-Fi 6 capabilities, a 12MP camera on both the front and back of the iPad, and more. This is all powered by an M1 Chip, which is still a powerful chip despite its age. You can choose from five different colors, from Blue to Starlight to even Purple.
This Logitech G PRO Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is perfect if you’re in need of a new keyboard. As a TKL model, this keyboard does not feature a numpad, so the design is smaller than that of a traditional model. The GX Blue Click switches provide a tactile response with ratings for professional performance and durability – this keyboard will last a long time.
Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy combines Ace Attorney 4-6 into one package! This collection features 16 episodes in total, which can easily provide dozens of hours of fun. Some of the new features exclusive to this remastered collection include the Orchestra Hall to listen to in-game BGM, the Art Library to view illustrations, and the animation studio, where you can utilize character animations to create your own scenes!

With 12 cores and 24 threads, you can expect top of the line performance in any game, regardless of the demand. Its top speed of 4.8 GHz is excellent for any device. The 5900X features AM4 support, so almost all modern AMD motherboards will support this chip.
For only $24.55, you can own the first three Metal Gear Solid titles on Nintendo Switch. This package also includes Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. Prior to the Master Collection, there was no method to play the Metal Gear Solid titles on most modern consoles, but you can now experience Hideo Kojima’s series from the very beginning on the go.
Octopath Traveler II was one of the standout RPGs of 2023. Featuring eight different characters, this HD-2D release depicts an expansive story told from the perspectives of these characters. Each traveler has unique abilities, making for a new and exciting experience with each story. This is one RPG you do not want to miss, especially for this price. You can get a free PS5 upgrade, too.
If you picked up Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble last week, you might be close to finished with the main levels if you’ve played quite a bit. For more Monkey Ball fun, this sweet discount on Banana Blitz HD is a great option!

Construct ‘n’ destruct sim Besiege recently got a splashy expansion in The Splintered Sea, which Nic enjoyed a lot in his review while calling it compact, small and brisk. Apparently Nic wasn’t alone in this opinion: its developers now say they’re working on a free update that will expand the expansion and make its campaign 50% longer.
SAO, Dragon Ball, One Piece and much more.
Alongside Anime Expo 2024 this week, Bandai Namco hosted its ‘Summer Showcase’ for 2024. The main show and pre-show were packed with all sorts of anime-related announcements, and many of the games featured are coming to the Switch.

This round up is also a great way to see what updates are currently being rolled out for Bandai Namco’s existing releases.
