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 can browse through all of the titles on sale right now right here, and check out some highlights below followed by this week’s best physical game deals below that.
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.

For our mid-week console game deals roundup we are heading back to Switch and Switch 2. Just after a slew of leaks on potentially upcoming third-party Switch 2 games (and some major first-party stuff of course), Amazon is now offering Star Wars Outlaws Gold Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 down at $28 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35. This one carries a $60 list price, has been hovering in the $30 to $44 region over the last few months, and is now at the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon.

Outside of a brief dip into the $28.50 range for Prime members over the holidays last year, this is within $1 of the lowest price we have tracked.
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).

When is the next major Switch 2 game announcement going to be? Well, apparently very soon.

Nintendo has a serious leak problem right now, as we have already discussed. It seems as though just about all of its major 2026 releases have already surfaced online, leaving very little to the imagination when it comes to the upcoming summer and holiday Switch 2 release schedule. There are couple of other titles that have been mentioned among the leaks and, while they don’t come from sources quite as reliable as some of the others, if they do end up coming to fruition we could be in for a new Wario Land game and a potential new classic Metroid remake this year.

Nintendo has been making headlines as of late after what appeared to be its entire 2026 launch schedule leaked online (details here). However, it does look as though one thing didn’t slip through the warp pipes as it has just announced a new limited-time Super Mario Galaxy Switch 2 console bundle offer. Starting next week, you’ll be able to buy a Switch 2 and Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 at just about all major retailers with a $20 discount. That’s not much, but it is something, and if you already own a Switch 2 you can land a deal on Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 right now anyway: Woot has the proper U.S. boxed version down at $58.99 right now and the international version down at $54.99 Prime shipped. The International copy works on U.S. consoles, but you might bump into some issues if there was an DLC for the game in question (updates appear to work just fine).

Update 4/3: We have now updated this post with some additional leaked details on some potential upcoming Switch 2 releases.
As we have already reported, there have been some major Nintendo leaks surfacing across the interwebs over the last week or so, much of which coming from folks with solid track records for this sort of thing. While these sorts of early details and rumors were very much expected last year with the launch of the Switch 2, it appears as though much of the Nintendo 2026 launch plans have leaked already.

While the leaks and rumors regarding upcoming Nintendo plans have slowed to some degree compared to last year’s Switch 2 launch cycle, there have been some seriously exciting tidbits floating around as of late. Not the least of which, some fairly high-profile Nintendo Insiders have already claimed we are in for a complete remake of one of the most celebrated Nintendo titles of all-time: The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. And now it looks as though there’s good reason to believe there will also be a special edition Zelda Ocarina of Time Switch 2 Console.

Square Enix unleashed the Final Fantasy VII remake Intergrade for Nintendo Switch 2 earlier this year and if you’re still looking to add it to your library, Walmart is offering it down at $29.99 shipped right now.

We have seen this deal off and on at Amazon over the last few weeks, but it has jumped back up to $40 at the time of writing (it might drop back to $30 at any point by the looks of it). For those unfamiliar, the FF VII remake Intergrade retells the “original story up to the escape from Midgar, with breathtaking visuals, fast-paced gameplay, and additional story elements.” The Switch 2 edition includes the INTERmission Yuffie side story expansion as well.

There have been some notable releases for Switch 2 thus far, but nothing overly remarkable at this point. We have had some notable first-party releases with the new Mario Tennis game and the Super Mario Bros. Wonder expansion, not to mention the surprisingly well-received Pokémon Pokopia.
