In addition to these price drops on select Nintendo Switch games, accessories for the console will also be marked down as part of the Black Friday sale. The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller will see a price drop of $20, as will the Neon Red and Neon Blue Joy-Con pair. A system carrying case and screen protector based on The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will also be getting a $10 discount.

All in all, these are some pretty decent discounts! While some of these games are on the older side (Super Mario Odyssey came out in 2017), games like Pikmin 4 and Tears of the Kingdom are significantly more recent, both having released last year. The overall quality of the games included is pretty high, as well. Many of these games are considered some of the best on Switch, and if you happened to miss out on them in the past, or you’re a new Switch owner, this is a pretty strong opportunity. If you’re on the fence about some of these games, our reviews can be found at each of the following hyperlinks for Nintendo Switch Sports, Pikmin 4, Tears of the Kingdom, and Kirby and the Forgotten Land.

Switch owners hoping to try out some more recent games on the system are in luck, as Nintendo has also announced several demo opportunities. These will begin November 16th and 17th when participating Target locations will host demo sessions of Super Mario Party Jamboree. On December 7th, Best Buy locations will also allow visitors to try out Jamboree, as well as The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, Mario & Luigi: Brothership, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Just Dance 2025. Finally, GameStop will have a similar promotion on December 14th, featuring all of those same games.
