Black Friday Nintendo Switch Sale Live Now On The eShop

Black Friday is almost here, but there are already plenty of deals to be had ahead of the big shopping event, including a bunch of discounts on Nintendo Switch games. Nintendo has now kicked off the Switch eShop’s annual Black Friday sale, and it features some nice discounts on a variety of first- and third-party titles for the system.

Some first-party games in particular have gotten a nice discount as part of the sale. A handful of Nintendo-published games are currently available for $40 ($20 off their usual price), including The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, Daemon X Machina, and Super Mario Party. While some of these games have received even steeper discounts at other retailers, it’s rare to see their digital versions drop this low.

Those aren’t the only good first-party deals. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is available for $40 as well, and its standalone prequel expansion Torna: The Golden Country is $26.79 (down from $40). Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore, an expanded port of the Wii U RPG that just released earlier this year, is also on sale for $40, while Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order is down to $48.

Beyond that, a number of third-party games have gotten some nice discounts as part of the sale, including the critically acclaimed Hades ($20), Diablo III: Eternal Collection ($30), The Outer Worlds ($30), and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim ($30).
