Nintendo games don’t always receive substantial discounts, especially when they’re relatively new, so an upcoming Black Friday sale could be a good opportunity for players looking to expand their libraries. With games like Donkey Kong Bananza, Kirby Air Riders, and Metroid Prime 4: Beyond included, Nintendo has confirmed that some of its biggest Switch 2 releases will be available for less during the holiday shopping season.
Alongside brand-new games, Nintendo has released several enhanced versions of older Switch titles for the Switch 2 console. However, the price of individual games can add up pretty quickly, especially when some major Switch 2 releases cost $70 or $80. Fortunately, Nintendo’s Black Friday plans aren’t limited to older games, with several relatively recent releases included in the promotion.
Nintendo Switch 2 Black Friday Sales & Deals (November 22 – November 29)
Nintendo has announced that select Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch games will be $20 off their suggested retail prices from November 22 through November 29. The discounts will be available on physical copies through participating retailers, including Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, Walmart, and Nintendo’s New York and San Francisco stores. There are seven games included in the promotion, although two of them have separate versions for Switch and Switch 2. The full lineup of discounted games includes:
- Donkey Kong Bananza
- Kirby Air Riders
- Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2
- Super Mario Party Jamboree – Nintendo Switch version
- Super Mario Party Jamboree – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV
- Metroid Prime 4: Beyond – Nintendo Switch version
- Metroid Prime 4: Beyond – Nintendo Switch 2 version
There are some particularly good deals here for Nintendo Switch 2 players, especially with Donkey Kong Bananza and Kirby Air Riders. Donkey Kong Bananza is one of the console’s biggest exclusives, offering a massive 3D platforming adventure built around environmental destruction and exploration. Kirby Air Riders, meanwhile, brings back Nintendo’s unusual racing series with new modes, characters, plenty of multiplayer content, and more. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is another notable inclusion, although it is one of the more mixed releases on the console, with both its original Switch release and enhanced Switch 2 version receiving discounts.
Find the odd one out before the timer hits zero.
Nintendo is also planning a separate digital game sale, which begins November 19 and runs through December 2. Those discounts will be available through Nintendo eShop, the Nintendo Store website, and the Nintendo Store app. However, Nintendo hasn’t confirmed the full lineup of digital deals or whether the same games will receive identical discounts across physical and digital storefronts. The $20 promotion announced for November 22 specifically applies to physical copies, with availability depending on participating retailers and remaining stock (so some games could sell out before it ends).
Nintendo’s Black Friday sale will be here and gone quickly, so anyone looking for new Nintendo Switch 2 games should be sure to hop on these deals while they last.
