Whether you recently picked up the new Nintendo Switch 2 or are looking for something to play on the original Switch, you’ll want to check out Best Buy’s Black Friday sale, as numerous games for both systems are on sale during the event. The deals include price cuts on physical Switch and Switch 2 games, as well as discounts on digital edition Switch games. The Switch 2 deals are focused on third-party releases like Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion for $50 (was $70) or EA Sports FC 26 for $30 (was $70), while the list of discounted Switch titles covers a mix of first- and third-party games, including up to 50% off on select Nintendo-published games like Super Mario Odyssey and Splatoon 3, both of which are $30 (normally $60). Considering Nintendo first-party releases rarely go on sale–and when they do, it’s not by much–this is a great chance to stock up on Switch games for the holidays. And since Switch games are backwards compatible with the Switch 2–and in some cases have Switch 2 upgrades available–they could make great gifts for players of either console.
