Best Nintendo Switch Game Deals
Amazon and Walmart are beating Nintendo’s digital sales prices, including a slew of great first-party Nintendo games at their lowest prices, ever. There’s still reason to buy from the eShop: you accrue loyalty points if you have a Nintendo account. Otherwise, Amazon has most of the Nintendo prices beat. Games are digital versions unless otherwise noted.

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller for $49.99
On Amazon
The Nintendo Pro Controller debuted at $69.99 and even at that price, it’s worth picking up. It’s a really excellent controller. This is the best price in as long as I can remember, and for $50 this is practically a steal. If you already have a Pro Controller, it might be worth grabbing an extra one while the price is so low.

On Amazon

Nintendo Switch Game Deals
Just because the official Nintendo E3 2019 kicked off doesn’t mean there aren’t chances to save on physical Switch games. Here are some of the best live Nintendo Switch deals right now.
Get $10 Prime Credit on Pokemon Sword/Shield
On Amazon
Amazon has a rare $10 Prime credit when you preorder either Pokemon Sword or Pokemon Shield. In fact, the credit makes buying one of each a better deal than buying the double-pack, which is $119.99 and offers no Prime credit incentive.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for $49.94
On Walmart
This is the best game for Nintendo Switch and one of the best games, period. If you don’t have it yet, I suggest you go ahead and place an order.
Super Mario Odyssey for $49.94
On Walmart
Super Mario Odyssey is tied for the best Switch game. Maybe it’s a close second. It’s really hard to decide. This version comes with a cool guidebook in addition to the game itself.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for $49.94
On Walmart
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is one of the absolute must-have games for the Nintendo Switch. It’s also one of the most popular games available for any system, so any reduction in price is a cause for celebration. You can grab it for 17% off its $59.99 list price right now.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe for $44.99
On Amazon
This is one of the finest 2D Mario games available, and everyone who missed out on it for the Wii U can enjoy it on the go now.
Mortal Kombat 11 for $49.94
On Walmart
Mortal Kombat 11 is a shockingly competent port. There are some details missing from some of the modes, where sacrifices had to be made, but when it comes to the fights themselves, it punches way above its weight.

Yoshi’s Crafted World for $49.94
