  • Last week, Amazon had so many Nintendo Switch games on sale — digital download prices were slashed on more than two dozen titles, and our readers definitely took advantage of the rock-bottom prices.
  • The bad news is that sale has officially ended… but the good news is that almost all of the best discounts are still available on the most popular Switch games.
  • There’s no telling when these Nintendo Switch discounts will disappear for real, so you’ll likely need to hurry if you don’t want to miss out.

If you’re looking to buy a new Nintendo Switch right now, you’re definitely out of luck unless you’re willing to pay massively inflated prices. They’re just not in stock anywhere, and resellers are definitely taking advantage of the situation. In fact, it’s harder to find a Nintendo Switch console these days than it is to find face masks and Purell hand sanitizer (or much better deals on hand sanitizer with the same exact formulation)! It has been several years since the Switch was released and the new PS5 and Xbox Series X are both coming out this year, but people are still buying up Switch consoles like the system was just released yesterday.

That’s certainly bad news for anyone in search of a new Switch console. If you already have a Switch, however, we’ve got some fantastic news: the massive sale Amazon was hosting on Nintendo Switch game digital downloads that ended last week actually never really ended. That means you can still get all the best deals on wildly popular games, and they’re all digital downloads so you can start playing right away!
