Fire Emblem’s Remarkable Comeback

Fire Emblem’s Remarkable Comeback https://ift.tt/7qwgX1M Though it may not be a sales juggernaut on the scale of Mario or The Legend of Zelda, Fire Emblem is one of Nintendo's preeminent franchises. Like so many of its vaunted stablemates, the series is almost as old as Nintendo's gaming ambitions, debuting on the Famicom and appearing on nearly every home and handheld console since. Given this prominence, it's almost difficult to believe that Fire Emblem's future was ever in jeopardy, but such was indeed once the case; there was a point in time when the series was very much on the verge of cancellation, and it took a dramatic shakeup to reverse its fortunes.

Animal Crossing Lego sets are on sale for their lowest prices yet at Amazon and Walmart ahead of Prime Big Deal Days.

Two more sets released in August, and the lineup will hit double digits in January when three new playsets launch alongside the first Mario Kart Lego sets. Six of the seven current Lego Animal Crossing sets are discounted, with the most notable deal being Nook's Cranny and Rosie's House for $60 (was $75).

Nook's Cranny and Rosie's House set was the biggest set in the lineup (and most expensive) before being surpassed by five bucks and 15 pieces by K.K. Slider. It usually retails for $75, but the 20% discount right now brings the price down to $60. The Nook's Cranny and Rosie's House set contains 535 pieces to construct both buildings, and includes Lego versions of both Animal Crossing characters, Tom Nook and Rosie.

If you're interested in K.K.'s Concert in the Plaza, you may need to click "Other sellers on Amazon" to get the discount. Amazon's page has been switching back and forth between listings for the full $80 and the best deal, which lets you get the recently released playset for $71. Note that K.K.'s Concert in the Plaza is sold out directly from Amazon (and Walmart), so you will need to pick a listing that is sold by a third-party but still shipped by Amazon. Even though it's technically sold by a third party, you can get Prime shipping and are eligible for Amazon's normal return policy and customer service.
