If you just got the system for the holidays and have been waiting to build up your game collection, now is the perfect time.

Thevery biggest gameslikeThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wildaren’t included, but therearestill some major games you don’t want to miss.
Hot off the first season of theNetflix series, the Nintendo Switch version ofWitcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Editionhas had its price cut from $60 to $50. The game includes all downloadable content and expansions that have released over the years and is the first time the series has appeared on a Nintendo platform.The Witcher 3is widely considered to be one of the best video games of all time.
Yoshi’s Crafted World, which just released in 2019, also had its price cut by the same amount. The game is the perfect platformer for younger players because of its very light difficulty, but its gorgeous paper-craft art style and charm make it enjoyable for older players, as well.
If you’ve been looking to play a fighting game on the Switch,Dragon Ball FighterZhas been discounted from $60 all the way down to $15 for the sale. The 2D fighter captures the intensity and style of the anime series and is also a tremendous competitive game in its own right.
Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Editionis, likeThe Witcher 3, also an acclaimed role-playing game, and is being offered for $40 during the sale. It’s an old-school role-playing game that features deep storytelling and a ton of choices. It also supports cross-platform saving with the PC version, so you can take the same game with you on the go after playing on your PC at home.
Nintendo sales are so rare, especially to this degree, that we definitely recommend buying the games you’re been interested in while this one lasts. It could be a very long time before we see them offered at this price again.
