Amazon is the latest retailer to join the Black Friday shopping extravaganza with its first round of deals going live on November 21. Interestingly, it appears that the retail giant is going to be offering other deals once it gets a bit closer to Thanksgiving. It's possible that Amazon being exclusively an online retailer allows it to be a bit more nimble when it comes to offering sales and bargains. One thing is certain, there are a ton of items on offer when it comes to both video games and tech deals. That too could be a big benefit of being a retailer that doesn't need to have a display set up for foot traffic.

Whatever the reasons for the massive savings that Amazon is offering in both its Early Black Friday deals and the stuff that is coming later in the week, there's a little bit of something for everyone. Those who are wanting to get a leg up on their holiday shopping for headsets, keyboards, laptops, or PC items, and of course seriously discounted PlayStation or Xbox games are going to be able to find something on offer. Sharp-eyed shoppers are almost guaranteed to save some serious cash.

Amazon's Video Game Deals

When it comes to the video games that are on offer it could take literally hours to list them all off. There's something available for everyone looking for deals on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and the Nintendo Switch. There's an added bonus here that isn't really the case with many of the other retailers offering Black Friday deals. Amazon has sales on physical copies of a ton of games, but it is also offering deep discounts on digital copies. That means keen-eyed shoppers who don't want to wait a couple of days to play their newest favorite game.

Nintendo Switch users aren't being left out in the cold either. Games like Splatoon 2, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening are all pretty decent deals. Those who are big fans of the LEGO line of games are also going to have something to spend some cash on, as there are several Switch LEGO games that have been severely reduced.

Amazon's Device Deals

One of the things that really sets Amazon apart from other Black Friday sales is that the retail giant is able to offer several first-party devices. While these are more prevalent at other retailers than they once were, the best place to find them is going to be on Amazon.com, especially if a shopper is looking for the best price. It also appears that almost any device that Amazon offers is going to be discounted at least a little bit. That means that people who are looking for something new to watch streaming video on such as HBO Max or YouTube TV can purchase a Fire TV Stick 4K for nearly half the price it would normally cost.

They can also get a full-scale Fire TV for quite a bit less than they normally sell for, depending on the size and bells and whistles that come along with it. The Echos and Echo dots are also selling for about half their normal price, which means users can have a digital assistant right there in their home, on the cheap. Shoppers are going to want to check out all the devices that are on offer for quite a bit less than the MSRP.

As always, it's important to note that when talking about these kinds of Black Friday sales, there are going to be plenty of shoppers who are all looking for the same deals. That means that things might end up selling a bit faster than people realize. While Amazon might have more of this stuff at the ready, there are bound to be a few items that are very limited in stock. Those who are really looking to save some serious cash during the holiday shopping season should also absolutely keep in mind that other things can be added over the course of the next week as Black Friday draws closer. Regardless, Amazon's deals on all kinds of games and tech devices are among the best on the retail landscape.
