Every gamer knows there’s always something on the horizon. If you’re having trouble figuring out a gift idea for your gamer friend/son/cousin, it might be because they already have all the games they want that have been released. That doesn’t mean you can’t help them out in the future. Nintendo has eShop cards available at all major retailers, with values ranging from $10 all the way up to $50. This is like pre-ordering a game without having to go through the hassle of GameStop.
The best part is the person who receives the card can decide what to do with it. Want to buy all the Mario Kart DLC? That’s fine. How about supporting a few indie developers on the eShop? Totally cool!
Even if your gamer friend isn’t a Nintendo gamer, both Microsoft and Sony offer the same deal with Xbox Live and PlayStation Network cards. PlayStation Network cards can be bought immediately on Amazon and the code given away, or you can can pick up one of the cards next time you’re shopping. Not a bad way to keep your gamer friends stocked up on their favorite games!
