Yoshi’s Crafted World | $35
Yoshi’s Crafted World is a super-charming platform adventure starring Mario’s best dinosaur pal, all set in a world that looks like it’s made of cardboard, yarn, and other found materials. It’s $25 off right now at Best Buy.
Mario Tennis Aces | $35
Hit the court in Mario Tennis Aces, the latest and greatest entry in Nintendo’s long-running, arcade-style sports bonanza.

Splatoon 2 | $35
Even three years after release, Splatoon 2 remains one of the absolute best online multiplayer games on Switch. This vibrant riff on squad-based shooters has you blasting, tossing, and launching paint around levels to try and dominate the terrain, along with other other fun variations on the theme, a solid single-player campaign, and a great wave-based survival mode. Save $25 off at Best Buy or Amazon right now.
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening | $40
If you’ve already been through the brilliant Breath of the Wild, there’s another stellar Legend of Zelda game on Switch. This one is decidedly more old-school in design… and that’s because it’s a remake of the classic Game Boy entry, Link’s Awakening.
You wouldn’t know it from a glance, however, as the whole game has been thoroughly redone in a glossy graphical style that makes it look like toy figurines at play. Best Buy and Amazon have it for $20 off right now, which is about the best deal we’ve seen for a new copy.
Super Mario Maker 2 | $40
Think you’ve got the skills to out-build the likes of Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto and other Nintendo legends? Prove it with Super Mario Maker 2 on Switch.
This expanded sequel doesn’t deviate too much from the Wii U original, giving you easy-to-use tools to create and share your own inventive, potentially devious 2D Mario courses. The toolset is bigger now, however, as is the fun. Snag it for $20 off right now.
Luigi’s Mansion 3 | $40
In classic Nintendo fashion, Luigi’s Mansion 3 takes an intense and adult-oriented genre (survival horror) and makes a super-charming, silly, and all-ages transformation of it. You don’t need to have played the older versions to appreciate this recent adventure, which finds the other Mario brother sucking up ghosts with his vacuum pack and trying to rescue his friends after being duped into a stay at a haunted hotel. It’s $20 off at Best Buy or Amazon right now.
Nintendo Switch Lite | $200
Look, we’re as surprised as anyone to see that Best Buy still has the Switch Lite console in stock as of this writing. In fact, they have all four colors right now, which we haven’t seen anywhere in ages.
The $200 price is MSRP, but given how scarce all Switch systems have been during the pandemic, now’s the time to strike: you certainly won’t find it any cheaper right now.
Lamyba Switch Carrying Case | $18
Clip the coupon on the page
If you’re a big Animal Crossing fan and you want a thematically appropriate case for your Switch or Switch Lite, consider this Lamyba sleeve with a shoulder strap. It provides modest protection with its fabric build and comes with both a wrist strap and the aforementioned shoulder strap. Save a few bucks off right now when you clip the coupon.
BioShock/XCOM 2/Borderlands Collections | $25-30 Each
Big games on a little screen! 2K Games ported three of its top franchises from other consoles and PC to the Switch in content packed bundles earlier this year, and they’re currently discounted at Amazon.
The BioShock Collection gives you a trio of bold and distinctive first-person shooter campaigns, while the XCOM 2 Collection gives you the complete version of the critically acclaimed turn-based strategy gem and Borderlands Legendary Collection has a trio of cartoon-stylized, over-the-top, looter-shooter favorites.
Save $20-25 on any of ‘em right now. Note that you’ll definitely need a microSD card for these, as all three require a significant download to access the entire game.
Minecraft | $24
Haven’t played the biggest game in the world and don’t know what the fuss is all about? Luckily, Amazon has the Switch version of Minecraft for 20% off right now, letting you jump into its blocky sandbox and play with the equivalent of digital LEGO bricks. The Switch version has extra perks, too, such as a Mario kingdom and character skins, not to mention the ability to play it anywhere.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons | $50
If you’re not one of the millions of Animal Crossing devotees that snapped up this perfect-for-pandemic chillfest this spring, now’s your chance. Right now, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is $10 off, which is the best you’re likely to see on a new copy anytime soon. Grab it while it lasts!
Sid Meier’s Civilization VI | $15
Looking for one game that could potentially last you throughout the entire pandemic quarantine? Look no further than Sid Meier’s Civilization VI, the latest entry in the life-consuming strategy franchise, in which you build up a civilization that can last through the ages. It’s a fraction of the original $60 list price right now.
SanDisk 128GB microSD Card for Switch | $25
If you’re downloading games from the Switch eShop, then you’ll probably need some extra space. Luckily, the Switch accommodates affordable microSD cards, and there are even Nintendo-branded versions from SanDisk.
This official microSD card has a Mario mushroom on it and is currently on sale for $25, marked down 27%. However, if you can deal without the branding, you can grab a standard 128GB SanDisk microSD card for $16… and it works just as well.
