Nintendo’s Summer Game Sale kicked off recently and offers discounts of up to 50% on a bevy of popular titles for the Switch console, as well as lower prices on some lesser-known indie games.
The sale coincides with similar sale offerings from Microsoft and Sony, and it’s going to run through June 16.
Popular online marketplace site Amazon recently started price matching Nintendo Switch games as well.
Discounted titles include Super Mario Party, Doom, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, and Golf Story.
Nintendo is also running sales from Ubisoft, WB Games, Devolver, and Bandai Namco, which brings the total number of discounted games to well over 100. All in all, this is one of the biggest sales the company has ever done, rivaling even Black Friday sales of the past.
Here are some notable titles:
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is $30 from $60

The Nintendo Switch has long been a haven for indie publishers looking to get games some traction and attention, and many notable independent titles are discounted during the sale as well.
