There is definitely a leaky warp pipe somewhere within Nintendo right now, as any avid switch gamer already knows, and a new, albeit quite cryptic, rumor suggests a new 2D Zelda game announcement is all but imminent. 

Alongside a collection of hangover Switch game deals below, Best Buy has now launched a notable Square Enix sale featuring loads of Switch and Switch 2 game discounts. One highlight you’ll also find down at $29.99 with free shipping for Prime members at Amazon is Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade for Switch 2. Regularly $40, this is 25% off and an another shot at landing it at the best price we have tracked to date. 

• Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade $30 (Reg. $40)
• OCTOPATH TRAVELER 0 Switch 2 $40 (Reg. $50)
• DRAGON QUEST I & II HD-2D Remake Switch 2 $45 (Reg. $60)
• DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined Switch 2 $50 (Reg. $60)
• And even more…

April 26th is Alien Day and the dev team at Creative Assembly just dropped a new teaser for the upcoming Alien Isolation sequel. 

Just after Nintendo launched a new gameplay trailer for the Yoshi and the Mysterious Book on Switch 2, pre-orders are now live and we are already tracking a deal on the physical copy over at Walmart – add it your cart to see the discounted price. 

Nintendo is continuing to update its popular Switch 2 GameCube library and now that we have moved into 2026 it’s time to take an updated look at the lineup. 

Much like we saw on the new Yoshi game yesterday, Walmart just put the new single-player Splatoon Raiders for Switch 2 up for pre-order at a discount. 

For Friday’s game deals roundup we are featuring a number of ongoing Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 titles, alongside this deal on Super Mario RPG at $34.75 via Walmart, down from the regular $60. And with the new Yoshi and the Mysterious Book launching next month, we also wanted to point out this deal on Yoshi’s last adventure too – Woot is offering Yoshi’s Crafted World down at $46.99 Prime shipped for a proper U.S. physical copy. Head below for a closer look at more of the latest from Nintendo and the rest of the Switch game deals we are capping off the work week with. 

Gaming’s “worst kept secret” will be officially revealed today when Ubisoft hits the button on today’s Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced: Worldwide Reveal Showcase very soon. 

Nintendo announced the release date for the new Yoshi and the Mysterious Book on Switch 2 last month. Just after that it revealed that digital copies of the game would be $10 less expensive – much like we just saw with the new Splatoon Raiders – and now it has dropped a new overview trailer with more details on Yoshi’s first solo outing on Switch 2. 

Alongside a host of ongoing Switch game deals below and the expected launch of Grand Theft Auto 6 later this year, Amazon is now offering the Grand Theft Auto The Trilogy Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch down at $19.99 Prime shipped. Regularly $30, this is 33% off and matching the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon. It’s not a perfect definitive edition trilogy by any means, but we are talking about adding three absolute classics to your Switch library here for $20 – sounds like a win to me.

Ubisoft will officially reveal the new Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake today and the Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Collector’s Edition has already leaked on Amazon France. 

Amazon has $10 Nintendo gift cards on sale today. Switch and Switch 2 games are expensive, and so is all the hardware. Deals, especially on the new stuff can be very had to come by, but these discounted gift cards can certainly help the case – you’re effectively trading money for more money to spend on the eShop and Nintendo store here. 

While you will find a host of Switch game deals below, we wanted to highlight the ongoing PlayStation Spring Sale (last day) this morning and the deals now live on the wonderful Hollow Knight games. You will find Hollow Knight Voidheart Edition down at $7.50, or 50% off, with the original game alongside “4 giant Content Packs.” That deal also joins Hollow Knight: Silksong at 20% off the $20 digital list price down at $15.99. These titles are already affordable and amazing enough before the deals, but if you have yet to grab them, now’s as good a time as any. 

LAST DAY: PlayStation launches ginormous PS5 Spring game sale – Over 5,400 titles at up to 75% off

Not all Switch 2 accessories are made equal, some of them look like an actual Piranha Plant that double as a TV docking station for your Switch 2, charges all sorts of joy-Con pairs at the same time, features glow night lighting, and posable arms. 

One of the most notable changes to the Xbox ecosystem since the new CEO stepped in is a price cut for both Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, which takes effect today. The new pricing has Game Pass Ultimate dropping from $29.99 to $22.99 per month, while PC Game Pass falls to $13.99, down from $16.49. The rest of the Game Pass lineup isn’t seeing any adjustments, so those tiers remain at the same rates introduced after Microsoft’s price increase last October. Head below for more details.

This morning Nintendo officially revealed the summer release date for the single-player Splatoon Raiders Switch 2 game. Pre-orders are now live on the Nintendo Store, but, perhaps even better is the price – it looks like digital Switch 2 games will indeed be less expensive than physical boxed copies as we suspected. 

Alongside a host of ongoing Switch game deals down below, with the official announcement of the upcoming Splatoon Raiders release date on Switch 2 this morning, we wanted to highlight this deal on Splatoon 3. While the new game is not a direct sequel or anything, it might be fun to get your ink on before the new one releases this summer and you can now score physical copies at Walmart for $46.99 – price appears in the cart. The regularly $60 title doesn’t see deals as regularly, or as low, as some first-party Switch games, but you land a discount right now. Head below for more of today’s Switch and Switch 2 games, and here’s all of the latest details as well as the new trailer for Splatoon Raiders. 

Nintendo just officially revealed the Splatoon Raiders release date on Switch 2

Nintendo has just confirmed the Splatoon Raiders release date. This is the next in the long line of Nintendo leaks and rumors to come true – it releases this summer.

Just as we expected and just as the leakers leaked, the official Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced: Worldwide Reveal Showcase will wash ashore this week.

A full-blown Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag remake is all but imminent at this point. In fact, Ubisoft has already confirmed the existence of the new Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced, folks have already seen it in action ahead of this week’s expected official reveal, and we have some details for you below – this is not just a basic remaster for modern platforms. 

Update 4/16: This posted has been updated with all of the latest leaks.

In case you somehow missed it, there has been a massive leak over at Nintendo. Somebody is stealing all of the Mushroom Kingdom’s biggest secrets and leaking them all over the internet. As exciting as some of this leaked information is, I almost hope it’s all fake and Nintendo completely surprises everyone over the next few months. 

In this morning’s game deal roundup we are featuring the latest eShop Spotlight sale featuring a host of notable deals on Switch and Switch 2 games. You’ll find titles at as much as 50% off the list prices including the Switch 2 editions of DAVE THE DIVER and Hades II alongside Skyrim, Marvel Cosmic Invasion, and more.

An Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake is inbound, and very soon. For me personally, it is the earlier AC games that deliver the nostalgia and fondest memories, but for many, Black Flag really hit the sweet spot and Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced is purportedly set for release this summer. 

Earlier this week, Xbox promised a dedicated first-look showcase for the new Metro 2039, and has followed through. Today’s broadcast is about to go live and it’s all waiting for you below. 

Just ahead of the imminent Star Wars May the 4th Nintendo sale, and after one of the biggest strings of Nintendo leaks we have seen perhaps ever, it’s time for the official eShop Spotlight sale. Alongside the host of first-party games we featured on sale this morning (you’ll find those below as well), Nintendo has hand-picked a series of notable deals and is now offering them at up to 50% off. 

Will Sony reveal a new, proper God of War game this year? It sure sounds like it will and some new leaks and rumors have surfaced suggesting the setting more details. 

Rockstar got hacked again, in case you missed it, and the culprits are demanding it pays up by tomorrow or they will leak GTA 6 all over the interwebs. Or something, or not at all, because Rockstar has now released a statement saying the hackers didn’t actually steal anything of value (by the sounds of it). 

Just after inking the date and time for its giant annual summer Games Showcase, Xbox Wire has just confirmed we will be getting our first good look at the new Metro 2039 this week. 

The limited time Switch 2 Mario Galaxy bundle is now live. As part of the theatrical release of the new Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Nintendo has delivered a few fun new releases and promotions. And special limited time Nintendo Switch 2 console bundle packaged with Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 – it is now available for purchase on Amazon. 

The 2026 Nintendo leaks just keep coming. While not nearly as high-profile as the Zelda Ocarina of Time remake or even the rumored upcoming Star Fox game, it looks like Switch 2 will be getting some Marvel superhero action soon too. 

As part of the new My Mario toy and collectible lineup, Nintendo unleashed a FREE Hello, Mario! App on iOS, Android, and the eShop earlier this year, and now the new Hello, Yoshi! edition is live. 

While we are still waiting to see what Nintendo has next for the Switch 2 Game Cube library, the April 2026 NES Nintendo Classics updates and the companion trailer have arrived. And these ones didn’t leak ahead of time, like everything else Nintendo has on is release schedule this year.

James Bond’s next outing on home consoles is quickly approaching if you have a PS5 or Xbox anyway – the Switch 2 version has been delayed until later this summer. We are, however, getting our first look at the new 007 First Light Limited Edition DualSense Wireless Controller. 

When is the next major Switch 2 game announcement going to be? Well, apparently very soon. Rumors and relatively reliable leakers have been divulging Nintendo’s 2026 release plans for a few weeks now, but it looks like what might very possibly be the most reliable of them all has just doubled down saying the first of these big announcements will happen this month.
