### First-Ever Discount: The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales
If you have been waiting for a price cut on *The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales*, your patience has paid off. Since its launch this past June, the title has maintained its full retail price, but Amazon is now offering the Amazon Exclusive Edition (Nintendo Switch 2) for just $44.99.
This HD-2D action-adventure title has been praised for its stunning visual direction. In our 8/10 review, we noted that while the game has a few minor rough edges, its artistic presentation is top-tier, solidifying the HD-2D aesthetic as a modern gold standard for the genre.
### Strategy Savings: Pikmin 4 Digital Deals
For those who prefer digital libraries, Walmart is currently hosting a compelling offer on *Pikmin 4* for the Nintendo Switch. You can secure a digital copy for only $39.88. This is an ideal opportunity to catch up on the series, especially with the highly anticipated *Pikmin 4 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Dandori Academy* expansion arriving next month.
With the franchise seeing a resurgence in popularity-recent industry reports suggest a 15% increase in strategy game engagement across console platforms this year-now is the perfect time to master the art of Dandori and grow your Pikmin army.
