It seems that other shops are ready to step in and fill the void that closed GAME and Gamestation stores left. Sainsbury’s announced today that it will be slashing the prices of several big name titles and pieces of hardware.

“Gaming is a key part of our entertainment offering so we are excited to be reducing prices by as much as 40 percent for this exclusive sale,” Sainsbury’s games boss Gurdeep Hunjan said when speaking to Eurogamer.

“Our breadth of offer is now bigger than ever before and customers can be assured that they can get the most popular games and consoles from us at outstanding value, whilst doing their weekly shop.”

It seems that this week is full of bargains. Both Amazon and Atlus have announced special deals yesterday.
