The Best Nintendo Switch Game Deals On The Eshop Right Now In The US

The Nintendo Eshop is running a sale on a number of excellent games. So if you've finished or grown bored with your current collection of Nintendo Switch games, now is a great time to save money while adding new downloadable titles to your collection. The games will go back up to full price at different times, so grab them quickly.

Unlike some recent weeks, no big first-party Nintendo games are on sale, but you can save money on lots of indies and other games. For instance, the surprisingly intense rhythm game Thumper is on sale for $10. This game has you play as a metallic beetle hurtling down a nightmarish psychedelic space road.

From GameSpot's Thumper review: "Surprisingly little has been sacrificed in the transition to the portable console, and in some ways the fact that you can now hold it close by undocking the Switch makes it a slightly more immersive experience than sitting feet away from your TV."
