Best Amazon Prime Day Nintendo Gaming Deals On Switch And 3DS (US)
Great deals on Nintendo gear.
We're nearing the end of Amazon Prime Day 2018, which means you have until the end of July 17 to get deals on all kinds of items from Amazon, including video games. The deals are strictly for Prime members, but even if you're not a subscriber, you can probably get a free trial month here to take advantage of the deals.
As is often the case when it comes to gaming deals, Nintendo fans don't have it quite as good as PS4 and Xbox One owners, but we can still find some good deals if we poke around. Games for Switch in particular have not at all been well-represented, but we've updated the list below with a selection of games we've spotted with a discount. Some of these aren't specific to Prime Day and thus don't require a membership, but the price cuts are also fairly modest in some cases--you can get $5 off MSRP on some of Nintendo's best games, like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey.
Let's dive into the best Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS/2DS deals available during Prime Day 2018--just keep your expectations in check if you're hoping to be blown away.
Hardware
Anyone in search of a Nintendo Switch can get a good deal on a bundle that includes a memory card and $20 of Eshop credit--something you'll definitely find a use for, considering how many phenomenal games are available on Nintendo's digital store. Old-school gamers who fondly remember the SNES may want to add the Super NES Edition of the New 3DS XL to their collection for cheap.
- Nintendo Switch + 64GB MicroSDXC + $20 Eshop Credit -- $300
- New Nintendo 3DS XL - Super NES Edition + Super Mario Kart for SNES -- $150
