So a $60 would be $36, not bad.

That's not bad really with each game getting 20% ($12) off. It makes them slightly cheaper than the pre-HD generation stuff.

Bayonetta is seriously fun but also seriously difficult. Looks really good. Improved textures and shadows over the 360 version? Kinda looks like it. It has proved to me yet again that the Wii U Pro Controller is a seriously smart buy for anybody serious about action games. I still think it blows the One and PS4 controllers out of the water in a spectacular fashion.

I agree with that entirely, that pro controller was the smartest design they had with the system as far as controllers go. It's super comfy. If it were super simple to use that thing on a PC as a bluetooth controller where it would have no hangups over it, it would be ideal.

Best Buy took all of my Black Friday/Cyber Monday money this year. They had excellent deals especially with the GCU.

Buy 1 Get 1 40% off which stacks with Best Buy's GCU (Gamers Club Unlocked). The GCU takes an additional 20% off each game.

Don't you think this is a downside of the Wii U? Currently Wii U has 3 controllers, each is good for a certain type of games. The tablet, the pro controller, and the wiimote. Not sure if the nunchuck is used on any.

What if the just used the pro controller as the main one.
