What we do know is that it is kicking off later this week, so feel free to stock up on some discounted eShop credit from our store ahead of the event to save even more come Thursday (remember to use code <strong>BLACKFRIDAY<\/strong> at checkout):<\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer\">Please note that some external links on this page are affiliate links, which means if you click them and make a purchase we may receive a small percentage of the sale.
