If
you’re
a
gamer
looking
to
save
but
can’t
wait
until
another
a
month
until
Black
Friday,
it
might
be
worth
checking
out
Best
Buy’s
three-day
gaming
sale.
Now
through
October
27th,
the
retailer’s
offering
discounts
on
gaming
gear,
but
some
of
the
best
deals
are
on
hardware
specifically.
For
example,
Best
Buy
has
some
notable
deals
on
Windows
handheld
consoles,
like
the Asus
ROG
Ally,
which
is
on
sale with
a
Z1
Extreme
chip
for
$549.99
($100
off)
(and
even
cheaper
at
$499.99
for
My
Best
Buy
Plus
and
Total
members).
That’s
$50
shy
of
its
best
price
to
date,
and
nearly
half
the
price
of
its
successor,
the
ROG
Ally
X.
Admittedly,
the
ROG
Ally
X,
offers
more
impressive
performance
and
battery
life,
but
the
ROG
Ally
is
still
more
powerful
than
Valve’s Steam
Deck
with
a
larger
1080p
and
120Hz
display.
Alternatively,
the
Lenovo
Legion
Go
is
also
on
sale
for
$599.99
($150
off)
with
1TB
of
storage,
which
is
one
of
its
better
prices
to
date.
The
handheld
isn’t
as
fast
or
as
lightweight
as
the
ROG
Ally,
but
it
does
offers
a
larger
8.8-inch
144Hz
display
so
it
can
double
as
a
decent
Windows
tablet.
It
also
has
detachable
controllers
and
even
a
kickstand.
It’s
not
all
pricey
handhelds,
either.
Gaming
accessories
like
Scuf’s
Nomad controller
have
dropped
to
their
best
prices
to
date,
selling
for
$79.99
($20
off),
with
Amazon
matching
that
deal
too.
A
mobile
controller
for
your
iPhone,
Scuf’s
device
is
similar
to rivals
from
Backbone and
Razer
Kishi
but
offers
full-size,
drift-free
Hall
effect
sticks.
And
while
the
video
game
deals
aren’t
as
impressive,
there
are
a
few
noteworthy
ones
to
consider,
like
the
open-world title
Avatar:
Frontiers
of
Pandora,
which
is
down
to
one
of
its
better
prices
to
date
of
$29.99
($20
off)
for
PlayStation
5
and
Xbox
Series
X.
The
ROG
Ally
is
Asus’
first
crack
at
a
Steam
Deck
rival.
It’s
a
Windows-based
PC
gaming
handheld
with
a
seven-inch
1080p,
120Hz
touchscreen
and
integrated
gamepad
controls.
$550

The
clamp-style
mobile
controller
works
with
the
iPhone
and
offers
a
few
pro-level
features
at
a
relatively
low
price,
including
full-size,
drift-free
Hall
effect
sticks
(with
swappable
stick
toppers)
and
a
pair
of
customizable
rear
paddle.
