    Don't what? Is this not a legitimate question? I clicked on the links and went to Nintendo's website, and can't find anything for $2. So can the writer help me, or is it a lie?

    Watch out for high blood pressure? The article states there are sales they'd recommend and mentions $2 deals, yet there are no mentions in the article about $2 deals. It's a crap article that you don't have to crappily defend
