Amazon holding a video game Gold Box event December 4, 2012 (update)

The holiday shopping countdown continues and Amazon is celebrating day four with a big video game sale. The Gold Box for December 4, 2012 has been filled with games and accessories. Not to mention Just Dance 4 (PS3, Wii, Xbox 360) has been declared the $22.99 Gold Box Deal of the Day.

This is one of those brief sales that just snuck up on us. Fortunately, those who didn’t get there before 9am PST. Actually, I think I can take that a step further and say you could easily wait to start visiting until 1pm PST. That’s because most of the early Amazon Lightning Deals in the Gold Box are reduced fitness games. I’m not saying these fitness games, which were pretty much all part of Majesco’s Zumba line, are bad. It’s just that those games go on sale fairly often and I’m sure we’re all more interested in the games and items that are more rarely reduced.

• 5am PST Zumba Fitness (PS3, Wii, Xbox 360) – $19.99 (PS3)-$29.99 (Wii, Xbox 360)
