Alongside the ongoing pre-order deals on upcoming new Switch 2 game releases – score that Splatoon Raiders deal soon as it has already jumped up in price at Amazon, we are also adding a chance to land a deal on the Switch 2 version of the wonderful Split Fiction today. A great little co-op experience, now with “enhanced co-op experience with GAMECHAT and GAMESHARE features, specifically designed for the Nintendo Switch 2,” Walmart is offering it down at $34.96 right now. Carrying a $50 list price and currently out of stock at Amazon, this is the lowest price we can find and matching the best we have tracked on Amazon in the past.
While you do still have a chance to secure a deal on a physical copy of new Splatoon Raiders ahead of release next week, we are also adding another chance to land Star Wars Outlaws – Gold Edition to this week’s Switch 2 deals. Amazon is now offering it down at $29.95 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35. Regularly $60, this is 50% off the list price and within $2 of the lowest price we have ever tracked on Amazon.
We also have Super Mario RPG down at $33on Amazon and a host of ongoing pre-order deals scope out below as well:
Amazon just dropped the price on the official Switch 2: Choose Your Game Bundle by $50, and with an official price hike inbound, this might very well be the very best deal we see on a Nintendo console for a long while.

As has been the case for several months now, the pre-order deals on the new Splatoon Raiders are very likely to disappear as soon as the game launches next week on July 23. That means you have little more than a week to secure your physical copy of the game without paying full price. There is of course a chance we see post-release deals on this one, but this is a first-part Nintendo game after all and it might be a long while before we see it selling for any less than this:
Update 6/12: While the Amazon deal below is still live when added to your cart, GameStop just dropped the price on the official Nintendo Switch 2 Camera down to a crazy $9.99 – this likely won’t last for long.

Okay here we go! Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders are now live. Retailers like Amazon, Walmart, and others are at the ready to take orders on boxed copies and you won’t have to pay until later this year when it launches in November. All digital copies are expected to be live on the PS and Xbox storefronts tonight as well.
Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders are in full swing at Amazon, Walmart, GameStop, and elsewhere, about gazillion people have already secured a copy, and Rockstar still hasn’t even showed us any real gameplay. It hasn’t even really detailed much more than the game world at this point, but Amazon is not only in the midst of its giant Prime Day sale right now, but it also might have just leaked some new tidbits regarding real-time protagonist switching, in-game social network action that ties into secret side missions, and more.
The Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders are now live at Amazon, Walmart, GameStop and elsewhere, as you might already know if you stayed up with us for the midnight launch. But if you’re bitter about Rockstar’s decision to launch the “physical” version with just a download code in the box, the same insider that leaked the digital launch ahead of time is now claiming a disc version of Grand Theft Auto 6 is coming later this year.

The week started with the announcement of Nintendo big summer Direct, and we are finishing it off with another look at the pre-order discounts now live on some of the newest Switch 2 games. Alongside the rare Switch 2 console discounts now live ahead of the upcoming price hike, Amazon and Walmart are both offering $10 off a series of the new games highlighted at this week’s Direct. That means you can land the new Switch Sports Resort Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, among others, down at $49.99 shipped ahead of release later this year – this offer is now live at both Walmart and Amazon. This one is regularly $50 in digital form, but the physical copy we are featuring here today carries a $60 list price and, if it’s like the other discounted Switch 2 pre-orders we have featured, will jump back up in price at launch.
Nintendo hosted its big summer Nintendo Direct presentation this week and it was…good. Not great, but good. I think the bevy of Nintendo leaks that have hit this year dulled the experience significantly for many folks, myself included, Nintendo stock has taken a bit of nose dive because of it, and more importantly, there’s more than a few gamers that walked away from the presentation far less excited than they should have been. So what’s next from Nintendo: Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time limited edition Switch 2 console? A proper influx of major Game Cube titles? Is there one more surprise 2026 game release?
