Black Friday 2019 Deals For Nintendo Switch: Games, Joy-Cons, And More
<p>We don't see deals for Nintendo games as often as we might like, which makes the times they do go on sale notable. <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/black-friday/">Black Friday 2019</a> will some significant discounts on Switch games across several stores, and <a href="https://happyholidays.nintendo.com/deals/">Nintendo's Black Friday page</a> also says to "check back soon for more deals," which means more deals are on the way in the lead-up to the Black Friday. That said, the Switch (and newly launched Switch Lite) are selling so well we probably won't see too many deals on them, aside from the same Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundle we saw last year, which is a bit of a bummer, admittedly.</p><p>Still, we'll certainly be seeing an Eshop sale that will discount digital Switch games, presumably along with those for 3DS. In fact, <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-announces-digital-black-friday-switch-sal/1100-6471562/">Nintendo's Black Friday Eshop sale</a> has already been previewed for Europe and includes the expected discounts on a mix of first- and third-party games. Among them are Super Mario Odyssey, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Cadence of Hyrule, and Dragon Quest Builders 2, all of which will be 30% off.</p><p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/microsoft-shares-sneak-peek-at-its-black-friday-20/1100-6471091/">Microsoft</a>, <a href="https://bestbuy.7tiv.net/c/159047/614286/10014?u=https://www.bestbuy.com/site/black-friday/sale-ad&subid1=gamespot">Best Buy</a>, and <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/target-black-friday-2019-ad-best-gaming-tech-and-e/1100-6471218/">Target</a> have also revealed the sales they'll have ready for Black Friday and <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/cyber-monday-2019-the-best-cyber-monday-deals-and-/1100-6470253/">Cyber Monday</a>, so make sure to check those out if you're shopping around.</p><div data-embed-type="pinbox" data-ref-id="4304"> <p class="associated-header"><i><svg width="80" height="80" viewbox="0 0 80 80" aria-hidden="true" class="symbol symbol-news"><path d="M72,24V64h0a8,8,0,0,1-8,8H16a8,8,0,0,1-8-8V8H56V60a4,4,0,0,0,4,4h0a4,4,0,0,0,4-4V0H0V64H0A16,16,0,0,0,16,80H64A16,16,0,0,0,80,64V24Z"/><rect x="16" y="16" width="31.99" height="8"/><rect x="16" y="32" width="31.99" height="8"/><rect x="16" y="48" width="31.99" height="8"/></svg></i> Black Friday 2019 Deals & News</p> <ul> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/black-friday-2019-start-time-store-hours-for-targe/1100-6471354/">Black Friday 2019 Start Times, Store Hours: GameStop, Best Buy, Target, And More</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/black-friday-2019-nintendo-switch-deals-bundles-sw/2900-3174/">Black Friday 2019: Best Nintendo Switch Deals So Far</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/best-black-friday-ps4-deals-ps4-pro-and-ps4-slim-b/2900-3142/">Black Friday 2019: The Best PS4 Deals So Far</a></li> <li class="vertical-spacing-bottom"><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/xbox-one-black-friday-2019-deals-star-wars-bundles/2900-3160/">Black Friday 2019: The Best Xbox One Deals So Far</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/black-friday-2019-deals-start-times-leaked-ads-big/1100-6470200/">Black Friday 2019: When Does It Start, Deals To Expect, And More</a></li> </ul></div><p>In terms of Nintendo's official lineup of deals, first up is an assortment of Nintendo Switch games. Normally sold for $60, the following games will be available for $40 (33% off) at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, and Walmart starting Wednesday, November 27:</p><ul><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/super-mario-odyssey/">Super Mario Odyssey</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/super-mario-party/">Super Mario Party</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild/">The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/splatoon-2/">Splatoon 2</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/donkey-kong-country-tropical-freeze/">Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/mario-tennis-aces/">Mario Tennis Aces</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/kirby-star-allies/">Kirby Star Allies</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/octopath-traveler/">Octopath Traveler</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/wolfenstein-ii-the-new-colossus/">Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus</a></li></ul><p>While Nintendo's page says these games will be available for $40, <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/target-black-friday-2019-ad-best-gaming-tech-and-e/1100-6471218/">Target's Black Friday ad</a> claims the store will offer The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Mario Tennis Aces, and Super Mario Odyssey for only $30 each as limited-time doorbuster deals. Also, please note that more games may be on sale as well, but the Nintendo website only confirms the above titles. Finally, if you prefer to buy games digitally, the Nintendo Eshop's deals will likely be revealed at a later date.</p><p>Nintendo Switch Joy-Con controllers are also getting a discount during <a href="https://www.cnet.com/how-to/early-black-friday-deals-the-best-stuff-you-can-buy-right-now/">Black Friday</a>. Normally sold for $80 a pair, you'll be able to pick up a new pair of either gray or neon red and blue Joy-Cons for $60 (25% off). This offer will be available at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target starting Wednesday, November 27.</p><p>For those who play <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/pokemon-go/">Pokemon Go</a> or the <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/pokemon-lets-go-eevee/">Pokemon: Let's Go Switch games</a>, the <a href="https://pokeballplus.nintendo.com/">Poke Ball Plus</a> is a handy accessory for storing and catching Pokemon. It also comes with Mew, a mythical Pokemon that you can transfer into Pokemon: Let's Go, Pikachu or Pokemon: Let's Go, Eevee. Normally sold for $50, the Poke Ball Plus will be on sale for just $20 (60% off) at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, and Walmart starting Thursday, November 28.</p><p>Finally, if you were hoping for a price drop on the Nintendo Switch itself, you might be out of luck. Nintendo is offering the Switch bundled with a free digital copy of <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/mario-kart-8/">Mario Kart 8 Deluxe</a> for its full price of $300. If you have a good memory, you might recall <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-switch-black-friday-bundle-deal-available/1100-6463234/">this is the exact same bundle offered during Black Friday 2018</a>. The difference this year, however, is that <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/new-nintendo-switch-model-faq-hardware-differences/1100-6468483/">an upgraded Switch model with better battery life</a> has since been released, but this particular bundle includes the original model without that improvement.</p><p>That said, if you're interested in Mario Kart and don't mind forgoing the extra battery life, this is still a solid deal. While not included in Nintendo's Black Friday game deals, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe usually goes for around $50 on Amazon and elsewhere, so you're saving a good wad of cash on this bundle. The console deal will be available at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, and Walmart starting Thursday, November 28.</p><h3><strong>Nintendo's Black Friday 2019 deals</strong></h3><ul><li>Select Nintendo Switch games -- $40 (<del>$60</del>)</li><li>Joy-Con controllers (Gray, Neon Red and Blue) -- $60 (<del>$80</del>)</li><li>Poke Ball Plus accessory -- $20 (<del>$50</del>)</li><li>Nintendo Switch with free copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe -- $300</li></ul>
