Paper Mario: The Origami King Is $10 Off At Amazon For Black Friday
While we’ve seen quite a few doorbuster Nintendo Switch game deals for Black Friday, discounts on 2020 exclusives have been less common. Over the past day or so, however, retailers have started to offer modest deals on recent releases such as Super Mario 3D All-Stars and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity (this deal has sadly ended, though). And now you can also save on Paper Mario: The Origami King at Amazon. Normally $60, the charming role-playing game is down to $50 for a limited time.
As with most Amazon discounts, there’s no telling how long this deal will be available. If you’re looking to pick up The Origami King for yourself or someone on your holiday shopping list, you should grab it as soon as possible. This deal ties the lowest price we’ve seen for Paper Mario: The Origami King since it launched over the summer, and it’s been a while since we’ve spotted it on sale.


It nabbed an 8/10 in GameSpot’s Paper Mario: The Origami King review in large part due to its fun and inventive grid-based combat system. “With a newfound combat system that steals the show and offers a novel take on turn-based combat, its winking, nodding, and adventuring shine all the brighter,” critic Suriel Vazquez wrote. “Its world and characters might not be the series’ best, but it’s still able to consistently throw left turns, good gags, and smart surprises at you. Each piece of The Origami King elegantly fits into its whole, taking its irreverent flair to new heights. The Paper Mario series has recently shown that being clever and being smart are two different things, but thankfully, it’s once again managed to be both.”
For more Nintendo Switch Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, check out our roundup of all of the best games that are currently on sale. As mentioned above, you can also save $10 on another recent Mario game for Switch at Amazon: Super Mario 3D All-Stars.

Black Friday Flash Deal: Persona 4 Golden (Steam) For Its Best Price Yet
Persona 4 Golden is one of the most beloved RPGs of its era, but many fans of the series didn’t get to play it back when it was a PlayStation Vita-exclusive. Today, the Steam version of Persona 4 Golden is only $12.79 at Fanatical. However, this is a one-day-only flash deal, and less than 24 hours remain to claim it.
For comparison, Persona 4 Golden is usually priced at $20 on Steam, but it’s currently discounted to $16 in Steam’s Black Friday sale. Purchasing the game at Fanatical will get you a Steam key delivered via email, similar to other key sellers like Humble and Green Man Gaming, so it’s worth saving yourself a few extra bucks and snagging Persona 4 Golden there today.


The game earned a 9/10 in GameSpot’s Persona 4 Golden review in 2012 for its memorable characters, fantastic dialogue, and engaging mystery story. To celebrate Persona 4 Golden’s release on Steam, editor Michael Higham revisited the game this year–check out his thoughts on how Persona 4 holds up 10 years since its initial release. “It may not have been known at the time, but Japan (in July 2008) and North America (in December 2008) received what would be remembered as one of the greatest role-playing games ever made,” he wrote.
“Over the course of a decade, Persona 4 has become more than just an incredibly fun RPG with a refined battle system and quirky characters, though. A story about Japanese high school students confronting their worst fears, fighting for what’s right, and becoming the best of friends spawned a lasting legacy that has empowered the people who played it and continually inspired new games. Our love for Persona 4 has kept it alive for so long with several fighting games, two anime adaptations, an adorable (and difficult) spin-off RPG, and even a rhythm game. And after 10 years, we’re still seeing our good friends from Inaba in a new light.”
Fanatical has a ton of other great gaming deals for Black Friday, including more than 4,700 PC games on sale. Highlights include Control Ultimate Edition for $17.59 and Death Stranding for $26.39. Check out more highlights from Fanatical’s Black Friday sale below.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Players Are Making Easy Opals By Killing Dummies
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla features a dynamic world to explore, filled with all manner of danger and mystery. If you’re looking to start a fight and make some coin in the process, the Thousand Eyes merchants are happy to hand out contracts that will reward players with Opals that can be used to buy rare gear and exotic cosmetics.
Many of these contracts revolve around a simple formula of being sent to assassinate an unlucky target: one who is usually near your location. A new bug around these contracts has risen up though, and it’s allowing players to easily bank some Opals in the process. In the Ravensthorpe settlement that Eivor calls home, you’re able to grab contracts from the head of the Thousand Eyes, Reda.
The bug that players are encountering is that the nearby training dummies being marked as the guilty culprits that Eivor needs to kill, each one having committed a particular crime that needs to be punished with a lethal injection of steel to the neck.
AC: Valhalla offers repeatable quests that turn random NPCs in the gameworld into targets with a little back story and everything.
The problem: Training dummies seem to count as NPCs – so I just got the quest to kill a dummy 20 feet away, that apparently committed crimes. pic.twitter.com/R9uiBar9dI— Gregor Schwayer (@gremisch) November 22, 2020
Reddit user DontCrushMyJaw encountered an even more horrifying bug when the dummy near the tattooist Tove decided to gain sentience and wander off:
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla received a new title update this week, fixing many other bugs and broken missions that made advancement in the game’s story impossible. A new graphical option was also added to the PS5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S versions of the game, which now allows players to choose between the Performance mode that targets a 60fps frame rate while scaling the resolution to maintain it, or Visual Quality mode which targets 30fps and renders the game at a higher resolution and graphical setting.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla “brings a satisfying finish to the current saga of the franchise,” associate editor Jordan Ramée wrote in his Assassin’s Creed Valhalla review. If you’re interested in plundering England as you build a new home for your clan, you can also grab Ubisoft’s latest sandbox for $48 during Black Friday.
