Nintendo launches Blockbuster end of summer sale with Switch games from $4 (Up to 50% off)

Now live/From $4

While we are tracking a giant list of top-tier first-party Switch games (you’ll find those down below), Nintendo has now launched its end of summer Blockbuster Sale. The eShop is now flooded with “big hits” at up to 50% off to shore up your digital library and score some notable discounts on Switch games to enjoy in between major Switch 2 releases. And at this point, September is looking incredibly thin when it comes to new first-party Switch games (there are none), so now might be a good time to stock up.
