EVERYTHING MUST GO! GO! GO!

The Nintendo 3DS and Wii U eShops' functionality is being gradually phased out until its scheduled closure next year, so a couple of publishers - Capcom last week, and Shin'en (makers of FAST Racing League, the Nanostray/Nano Assault series, and a lot of other digital-only games) this week - are having a fire sale on some of their digital offering with really deep discounts (up to 90%). My 3DS memory card is almost full, but I think I'll try to snag a deal or two before I can't buy stuff directly from my 3DS or Wii U anymore.

I wish Sony still allowed publishers and developers to offer discounts on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita software. I suppose there's no point in doing it anyway, since while those storefronts received a stay of execution a few months ago, the PS3 digital store has been rendered damn near unusable for years due to general slowness. The Vita's store is less of a technical mess, but finding games similar to the things I used to play is impossible because they straight up stopped updating the "You Might Like This" and "Top Seeling Games" sections years ago, so I always wind up seeing the same ten games no matter what I pick.
