If you’re still looking for deals on Nintendo Switch games ahead of Christmas, you’ll definitely want to check out Woot’s wide selection of game deals. As of December 8, all of Woot’s Switch game deals will arrive by Christmas. If you’re an Amazon Prime member–Woot is owned by Amazon–your order will probably arrive within a few days. For the past few months, Woot has really leaned into Nintendo Switch game deals, and the list of titles available now might be the biggest yet. Plus, the majority of the games are Switch exclusives published by Nintendo, and most are seeing discounts of $20 or more.
Check out the list of 45-plus Switch game deals below. It includes nine games with Mario in the title as well as several others starring the plumber’s taller, oft-frightened brother and more of his friends from the Mushroom Kingdom. You’ll also find a bunch of Pokemon games, multiple Zelda titles, and other notable exclusives, including Metroid Dread, Nintendo World Championships, Nintendo Switch Sports, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
Nintendo Switch Holiday Game Deals at Woot
Note: Woot recently made a change to its Nintendo Switch game listings. The retailer no longer discloses whether you are getting a North American release or an imported game. All Nintendo Switch games are region-free, and every game in the list above is playable in English. That said, this is important to consider for games with DLC, such as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Pokemon Scarlet & Violet. If you do not get a North American version and want the DLC, you will need to purchase that content from the eShop matching your game. So if you get a UK game, you need to download DLC from the UK eShop, which requires making a separate Nintendo account. Not many games in the list above–or Nintendo games in general–have DLC, but this is worth keeping in mind.
A trio of Mario platformers have received big discounts: Super Mario Odyssey and New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe are $40 each, while Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury is $42. At the moment, Super Mario Party Jamboree is sold out at Woot, but you can get the other two entries for Switch, Super Mario Party and Mario Party Superstars, for $40 each. The recently released Mario & Luigi: Brothership is $50, and the rarely discounted Paper Mario: The Origami King is $42. You can also get Mario Golf: Super Rush for $40 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $38.
Eight Pokemon games are on sale, including three pairs of mainline entries: Scarlet and Violet for $42 each, Sword ($42) and Shield ($40), and Let’s Go, Eevee ($40) and Pikachu ($42). The Let’s Go games are adorable remakes of Pokemon Yellow with streamlined mechanics inspired by Pokemon Go. You can also snag Pokemon Legends: Arceus for $45 ahead of the release of its sequel, Pokemon Legends: Z-A, next year. The remake of the first Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game has received a rare discount, too; Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX is only $42, and this is a great pick for younger players who aren’t interested in turn-based Pokemon games just yet.
Several other rarely discounted Switch games are up for grabs for great prices. The stellar action-platformer Metroid Dread is $42, Bayonetta 3 is only $30, and the physical edition of the first Bayonetta game is down to $35. The Dragon Quest I-III Collection featuring the first three mainline games is available for $42. This collection only released in Asia, but it can be played in English. To be clear, this collection includes the enhanced versions that released on mobile and PC, not the new HD-2D Remake of Dragon Quest 3.
Bethesda’s recently released Doom Anthology, which comes with six games, a steelbook case, and a five-inch replica of the iconic BFG gun, is discounted to $55 (was $80). Speaking of Bethesda, Skyrim’s for Switch is on sale for $45. This is admittedly quite pricey for Skyrim in 2024, but the Switch port isn’t discounted often.
Super Mario Gift Idea
If you’re shopping for a Super Mario fan, you can get them a pretty cool gift from Walmart right now. The retailer has restocked the Collectible Steelbook version of The Super Mario Bros. Movie on 4K Blu-ray for only $28. This edition launched in June 2023 and, outside of a few briefly available restocks, has been sold out since then. Walmart is also taking preorders for an exclusive Limited Edition Steelbook of the Mario Movie on 4K Blu-ray for $28. The upcoming edition comes with a Question Block steelbook case, whereas the original featured a Super Mushroom. Walmart’s exclusive version releases March 4, but the original is available to ship now.
