- Nintendo has revealed its upcoming Black Friday savings
- Unfortunately, there doesn’t appear to be any major discounts planned for the Switch 2.
- However, some games and amiibo will be reduced.
Nintendo has announced its official Black Friday discounts ahead of the sales period, and it’s not looking good if you were hoping to get a cheap Switch 2 in the US.
A recent press release confirmed that the company will offer savings on some original Nintendo Switch games, such as Princess Peach: Show time!, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, and Luigi’s mansion 3 – which will be reduced to $39.99 each.
Other titles are even cheaper, with Super Mario OdysseyNintendo Switch Sports and Splatoon 3 all for $29.99.
Select amiibo, such as street fighter 6 Jamie, Kimberly and Luke amiibo figures will be $10 off. Visitors to official Nintendo stores in San Francisco and New York will also be able to save $20 on the official Samsung MicroSD Express card.
Unfortunately, there’s no mention of any discount for the Nintendo Switch 2, so it seems unlikely there will be any, at least officially.
“Experience the next evolution of Nintendo Switch with the Nintendo Switch 2 system ($449.99 suggested retail price) or the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle ($499.99 suggested retail price),” it reads.
This will be quite disappointing news for any would-be bargain hunters, although these deals only apply to ‘select retailers’ and official Nintendo stores, as well as the My Nintendo Store website. There is always a small chance that other retailers will offer their own attractive packages or deals.
Other regions like the UK are also likely to receive their own series of discounts and we’re already seeing some incredible value deals, which you can explore below.
