Bayonetta 3: was $59 now $47 @ Amazon
Bayonetta 3 brings more slick, colorful action to the Nintendo Switch. With lots of variety and customization, our Bayonetta 3 review said it's the best game yet in the series. However, we found that the high paced combat pushed the Nintendo Switch to its limits, which resulted in performance issues in some places.
