The Nintendo Switch was the best selling console of 2019 and we're not surprised at all. The Switch was released nearly 3 years again and still no other console is able to match the Switch's versatility. In addition, the already stellar gaming library has been bolstered with several high quality games in 2019, including Pokemon Sword and Shield, Super Mario Maker 2, Link's Awakening, Ring Fit, and much more. With increased pressure from Sony and Microsoft, Nintendo is likely to be more aggressive with deals and promotions during 2020. Check here for all the best deals on Nintendo Switch consoles, accessories, and games.
The Nintendo Switch comes preinstalled with only 32GB of storage. To put that in perspective, Breath of the Wild alone will take up 40% of your storage capacity. I'd recommend you get at least a 128GB card if you want to store as many smaller digital titles as you want, and the larger 400GB card if you plan to download bigger titles.
This game normally sells for $19.99. I thought I was getting a great deal at $9.99, but technically this deal is even 50% cheaper than that. I'm generally not a very big platformer fan and yet I loved this game enough to die 6,899 times in order to get all the strawberries in the game (I'm not a very skilled gamer). In fact I've racked more hours on this game than any other Switch indie game in my library. Get it now before the price goes back up.
We've published our review of Animal Crossing: New Horizons and not suprisingly, this game is "Amazing". If you liked Stardew Valley, this one should be right up your alley.
A brawl is surely brewing with this gorgeous, punishing game. Certainly you've heard about Cuphead by now. If not, here's a great chance to get it at a discount.
Thanks to the shelter-in-place policy, gaming consoles are clearing off shelves. Fortunately, Best Buy and Walmart has resupplied their online inventory of the Nintendo Switch Lite. The newest color in the Nintendo Switch Lite lineup is available for preorder. It's out on April 3. The Switch Lite is $100 less than the Switch and can play almost all of the same games. The Switch Lite can play the same titles as the original Nintendo Switch. It's lighter and the controls are non-detachable, although it is still compatible with Joy-Cons or the Switch Pro controller if you buy them separately. The only caveat is that you can't play in docked mode (i.e. on a TV), but for the majority of you who plan to play the Switch on the go, this is a small price to pay
This fight stick is officially licensed by both Nintendo and Capcom and features Cammy and Chun-Li artwork. It's great for games like Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Collection, Dragon Ball FighterZ, Mortal Kombat 11, and more, but note that it won't work for Smash Bros.
This cute retro controller is inspired by the Game Boy Pocket. It's compatible with the Nintendo Switch, PC, Mac, Android, and Raspberry Pi. The built-in 480mAh lithium battery gives it up to 18 hours of playtime between charges. You can get it for $30 on Amazon, or you can get it for 20% less at StackSocial with free shipping.
You're basically getting 10% off all of your digital game purchases from the Nintendo eShop up to $50.
