Nintendo’s big holiday push is officially in full swing.

Key dates and where to shop

Digital: Nintendo Cyber Deals 2025 (eShop)

Nintendo’s Cyber Deals campaign is the backbone of this year’s discounts:

  • When: November 20 – December 3, 2025, 11:59 p.m. PT
  • Where:
    • Nintendo eShop on Switch and Switch 2
    • My Nintendo Store online [16]

    • Over 70 Nintendo Switch games plus DLC and bundles, with highlight titles including Splatoon 3, Luigi’s Mansion 3, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Sonic x Shadow Generations, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, and more. [17]

Nintendo describes Cyber Deals as effectively the digital counterpart to its Black Friday promotions, with discounts concentrated on downloadable titles and expansions rather than hardware. [18]

Physical: Black Friday game deals

The Black Friday‑side of Nintendo’s promo focuses on boxed copies of popular first‑party games:

  • When: Deals started November 23 and generally run through November 29, depending on the retailer. [19]
  • Where:
    • Major US retailers (such as Amazon, Best Buy, Target and Walmart)
    • Nintendo NY and Nintendo San Francisco stores [20]
  • How much you save:
    • Savings of $20–$30 per game, dropping several flagship titles to around $29.99 or $39.99. [21]

Big first‑party Nintendo games under $40

Nintendo’s official Black Friday press release and coverage from outlets like The Economic Times, Times of India and The Verge line up on the headline first‑party offers. [22]

Down to about $29.99 (roughly $30 off)

These titles are the real attention‑grabbers — flagship first‑party releases priced around half off their usual $59.99 MSRP:

  • Super Mario Odyssey – Around $29.99 at major retailers, matching its lowest price to date. [23]
  • The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom – Also cut to roughly $29.99, a rare early discount for a modern Zelda release. [24]
  • Splatoon 3 – Priced around $29.99 in some Black Friday promos, and discounted digitally as part of Cyber Deals. [25]
  • Paper Mario: The Thousand‑Year Door (Switch remake) – About $29.99, giving a newly remade classic RPG an aggressive holiday price. [26]
  • Nintendo Switch Sports – Also down to the $29.99 tier at participating retailers. [27]

For buyers who just picked up a Switch or Switch 2, this is a near‑perfect starter library at mid‑tier prices.

Down to about $39.99 (roughly $20 off)

A second batch of first‑party hits land around $39.99, still well below normal:

  • Princess Peach: Showtime!
  • Donkey Kong Country Returns HD
  • Luigi’s Mansion 3
  • Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe
  • The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom also appears around $39.99 at some retailers outside the deepest Black Friday window, depending on region and store. [28]

These prices are backed up by today’s international coverage, which notes that several games have never been this cheap before and may not hit these lows again until Nintendo’s annual “MAR10 Day” promotion in March. [29]

Standout digital Cyber Deals on Nintendo eShop

While physical game discounts are limited to a small curated list, the Cyber Deals 2025 eShop sale spreads savings across a much wider library. Nintendo Insider’s breakdown highlights eight Switch 2 titles and more than 70 Switch games with temporary discounts. [30]

Here are some of the most notable bargains live as of November 24:

Big first‑party and major third‑party titles

From Nintendo Insider’s full list: [31]

  • Splatoon 3 – Digital version discounted to about $41.99, down from $59.99, with an extra offer on the Expansion Pass and bundle.
  • Luigi’s Mansion 3 – Around $39.99, with separate discounts on its Multiplayer Pack and a combined bundle.
  • Xenoblade Chronicles 3 – Approximately $41.99, plus a deal on its Expansion Pass and bundled edition.
  • Bayonetta 3 – Cut to about $41.99 from $59.99.
  • Endless Ocean Luminous – Around $39.99, down from its standard price.
  • WarioWare: Move It! – Discounted to about $39.99.
  • The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Marked down to roughly $16.49 from $49.99.
  • Diablo III: Eternal Collection – Around $19.79, a substantial discount on the all‑in‑one bundle.

RPGs and story‑heavy favorites

  • Persona 5 Royal – Cut to around $20.99 from $59.99 — a huge drop for a mammoth JRPG.
  • Bravely Default II – Discounted to about $41.99.
  • Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance (Digital Deluxe) – Around $27.99, well below its usual pricing.
  • Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II (Digital Deluxe/Ultimate) – Both premium editions discounted heavily. [32]

Indies and cult classics

  • Cult of the Lamb: Cultist Edition – About $14.99.
  • Blasphemous 2 – Dropped to under $10.
  • Axiom Verge 1 & 2 Bundle – Approximately $13.99, combining two acclaimed Metroidvanias.
  • Overcooked! All You Can Eat – Around $13.59, a strong co‑op pick.
  • Little Nightmares I & II Bundle – About $14.99.
  • Downwell – Around $1.99. [33]

Vice’s coverage notes that the Cyber Deals promo spans well over 100 items when you include DLC, bundles, and Switch 2‑specific SKUs, so what you see on the front page is only a slice of what’s discounted. [34]

Switch 2: what’s actually on sale?

Despite heavy demand, Nintendo isn’t discounting Switch 2 hardware for Black Friday 2025. [35] However, there are a few angles for Switch 2 owners (or early adopters‑to‑be):

Discounted Switch 2 games and passes

Across Vice and Nintendo Insider’s lists, nine Switch 2 titles or specific next‑gen versions are confirmed to be in Cyber Deals, including: [36]

  • EA Sports FC 26 – Around $34.99, down from $69.99 on Switch 2, and about $29.99 on the original Switch.
  • Madden NFL 26 – Also about $34.99 from $69.99.
  • Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S – Roughly $23.99 from $39.99.
  • Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 – About $29.99 from $49.99.
  • Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut – Around $34.99 from $49.99.
  • Kunitsu‑Gami: Path of the Goddess – Around $29.99.
  • Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army – Approximately $34.99.
  • Sonic x Shadow Generations (Digital Deluxe) – Around $29.99, half off its usual $59.99.

Many of these are early‑generation Switch 2 releases, so seeing 30–50% discounts this soon after launch is notable.

Free Switch 2 upgrades for older games

Even if you’re buying older Switch titles, some are now “future‑proof” thanks to free Switch 2 updates. Nintendo highlights three in particular: [37]

  • The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
  • Super Mario Odyssey
  • Splatoon 3

On Switch 2, these receive improved performance and higher resolutions, making the current Black Friday pricing especially attractive if you plan to upgrade hardware later.

Amiibo, storage and other extras

Nintendo’s holiday offers aren’t just about software.

Amiibo

Select amiibo are $10 off MSRP at participating retailers, including: [38]

  • The Legend of Zelda “Sages” line (Tulin, Yunobo, Riju, Sidon)
  • Street Fighter 6 amiibo figures (Jamie, Kimberly, Luke)
  • The Street Fighter 6 amiibo Card Starter Set

For collectors or fans of Tears of the Kingdom and Capcom fighters, this is one of the rare times Nintendo itself is promoting meaningful amiibo discounts.

Storage for Switch 2

Switch 2 uses the newer microSD Express standard for expanded storage, which is still relatively niche and often pricey. Starting November 30, official Samsung microSD Express cards sold through Nintendo’s own stores and select retailers will be $20 off MSRP during a short Cyber Monday‑style promo (November 30 – December 1). [39]

Given how quickly modern Switch 2 titles chew through storage, this may be one of the smarter “future‑proofing” purchases of the season.

How long will these Nintendo deals last?

Here’s a quick expiry checklist so you don’t miss anything:

  • Cyber Deals (digital, eShop/My Nintendo Store)
    • Ends December 3, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. PT. [40]
  • Black Friday physical game prices ($29.99 / $39.99)
    • Generally run November 23–29, 2025, with some retailers possibly ending sooner. [41]
  • Switch 2 microSD Express card deal
    • Expected window: November 30 – December 1, 2025. [42]

Most deal‑tracking outlets agree that it’s unlikely we’ll see these exact discounts again until at least March 2026, when Nintendo typically runs its MAR10 Day promotions focused on Mario titles. [43]

Tips to make the most of Nintendo Cyber Deals 2025

A few quick strategies if you’re browsing the eShop or retailer listings today:

  1. Prioritize first‑party price drops.
    Nintendo first‑party games — especially Mario, Zelda, and Splatoon — rarely hit 40–50% off. If any of these are on your wishlist, they’re strong day‑one buys.
  2. Double‑check Switch 2 compatibility.
    If you own (or plan to own) a Switch 2, look for games with free Switch 2 updates (Echoes of Wisdom, Odyssey, Splatoon 3) or explicit Switch 2 editions in the Cyber Deals listings.
  3. Use wishlists and filters.
    On the eShop, use the Cyber Deals tab plus sorting by “highest discount” or “price low to high” to surface hidden gems like Blasphemous 2 or Axiom Verge Collection at steep cuts.
  4. Watch regional pricing.
    Some deals differ slightly between the US, Europe and Asia. If you’re using a different eShop region, cross‑check local store pages before assuming a US‑based discount applies.
  5. Budget for storage.
    With so many digital offers and more large Switch 2 titles coming, setting aside part of your budget for a discounted microSD Express card can save headaches later.

Bottom line

As of November 24, 2025, Nintendo’s Cyber Deals 2025 and Black Friday promos have created one of the most aggressive discount windows we’ve seen on Switch and Switch 2 software:

  • Digital buyers can stack up on dozens of discounted eShop titles through December 3. [44]
  • Retail shoppers can grab eight flagship first‑party games for $29.99 or $39.99 through the core Black Friday period. [45]
  • Switch 2 owners get a handful of discounted next‑gen titles and a short‑lived deal on official high‑speed storage.

If you’ve been waiting to build (or rebuild) your Nintendo library, this week — and especially the stretch between now and Cyber Monday — is likely the best time you’ll see until well into 2026.

  • Starlink Reaches 10,000 Satellites, Forging a Global Orbital Internet Empire
    November 24, 2025, 8:44 AM EST. SpaceX's Starlink has crossed a milestone: over 10,000 satellites in low-Earth orbit, reshaping global connectivity. By leveraging rapid launches and laser-enabled links, Starlink aims to transform broadband into a truly planetary service. The constellation, supported by Gen2 platforms and the planned Starship-heavy deployment, promises low latency capable of streaming, gaming, and video calls worldwide. Financials show a path to profitability, with 2024 posting a net profit and revenue projections climbing toward $30 billion in the mid-2020s, powered by millions of users and new markets such as India. Yet the expansion sparks debates-astronomers warn of bright satellite trains, while geopolitics complicates operations. If sustained, Starlink's orbital web could redefine disaster response, remote education, and how nations think about connectivity sovereignty.
  • DJI Osmo Pocket 3 deals: $529 on Amazon and $419 Xtra Muse rebrand in early Black Friday sale
    November 24, 2025, 8:42 AM EST. DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is on sale this Black Friday, with the main deal at $529 on Amazon (about 34% ($270) off). A rebranded clone, the Xtra Muse, is even cheaper at $419 (around 40% off) and is nearly identical in form and function. Differences include branding, app experience, and warranty; the Xtra Muse lacks native wireless mic support, relying on a USB mic setup, while the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 retains stronger warranty and more polished software. Both offer 4K gimbal footage and a rotatable screen for portrait/landscape shooting. The article notes rumored Osmo Pocket 4 release soon. For bargain hunters, these deals present compact vlogging cameras with versatile shooting modes.
  • Google charts path to exponential AI serving capacity as analysts call it 'stage two of AI'
    November 24, 2025, 8:40 AM EST. Google's AI infra boss Amin Vahdat says the company must double serving capacity every six months, with the next 1000x in 4-5 years, signaling a shift from compute to serving bottlenecks. The plan aims to keep Gemini and other AI services performing as demand surges on Google Cloud. Google cites efficiency gains across hardware, software, model optimization, and its own Ironwood chips as drivers of capacity. Analysts warn the challenge now is physical bottlenecks-power, cooling, networking bandwidth, and data-center build time-not just raw compute. As hyperscalers scale, the idea of stage two of AI emphasizes serving capacity's role in how quickly and widely models reach users, even as more complex queries test the system.
  • 5 Reasons Starlink Outshines Regular Home Internet
    November 24, 2025, 8:38 AM EST. Starlink, SpaceX's satellite internet, is increasingly a viable alternative to traditional broadband. While fiber can reach 1-10 Gbps, Starlink now offers download speeds around 300 Mbps and continues to improve. With roughly 8,000 satellites, it delivers broad coverage across the continental US and much of the world, including regions where fiber isn't available. It's usable on the move, making it attractive to digital nomads and remote workers. If the fastest neighborhood option can't crack 100 Mbps, Starlink is worth considering as a practical upgrade. In many places, Starlink is among the fastest viable options, especially where fiber installation is slow or unlikely.
  • How to Buy a Used Phone Without Getting Scammed: A Practical Guide
    November 24, 2025, 8:34 AM EST. To avoid scams when buying a used phone, prioritize reputable sites like Swappa, eBay, and Best Buy open-box sections. The author notes these platforms have processes to handle scams and often offer buyer protections. Exercise patience: monitor your target model and wait for a price you're willing to pay, especially for premium devices like foldables. Favor devices listed in mint or excellent condition; avoid aging batteries and screens with wear. Understand what "open box" means on each site, since conditions can vary (e.g., Swappa uses mint; eBay/Best Buy use different labels). The example shows a Galaxy Z Fold 6 bought on Swappa under $1,000 after price drops. In short: buy from trusted sites, check condition, and verify seller reputation to minimize risk.
