Our pick: Fire TV Stick and Luna Controller

$69.98
at Amazon

$129.98
Save $60.00

We’re officially one week away from October Prime Day, and Amazon’s already dropping prices on some of its most popular devices. One of the best deals we’ve seen so far is on a Fire TV gaming bundle.

As of Oct. 2, Prime members can score a Fire TV Stick 4K Max streaming device and Luna controller — which normally retails for $129.98 — for less than $70. That’s 46% off. (This deal is not available to non-members.)

The only kicker is that if you don’t already have a Luna+ subscription (Amazon’s cloud gaming service), you’ll need to sign up for one, which’ll run you $9.99 monthly. (You can get a seven-day free trial, though.) But even with that additional cost, you’re still getting a great deal on some solid streaming and gaming tech. All you have to do is set it up, and you’ll have access to hundreds of pick-up-and-play games from the cloud.

The Fire TV Stick is a fun add-on, too. This little streaming stick can hold 16GB of storage, double what most streaming sticks offer.

If you don’t have a smart TV or just want to upgrade your setup while the deals are hot, this bundle is a great way to do it.
