I wouldn't expect Europe to get all these sales. It's getting better, but the US has always had better sales, Thanksgiving is their thing. Maybe for Christmas here it will balance out a bit. I read that between 3DS and Switch, there's over 1,000 games on sale.

Edit: Here's the list.

https://www.nintendo.com/games/game-guide/#filter/:q=&dFR[generalFilters][0]=Deals

I counted 9 Nintendo published Switch titles on sale.

Super Mario Party
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Fire Emblem Warriors
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Mario Tennis Aces
New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido
Snipperclips - Cut it out, together!
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

Bloodstained, Namco Museum and Resi Evil game for me, though I think I would much rather physical copies, especially Namco... match in nicely with my other Namco Museum collection.

Serious amount of 3DS games on sale there, doesn't seem to be any on the EU store and can't for the life of me figure out how to get the same page you linked in the EU store. Was hoping Radiant Historia would be on sale but no dice in EU.

Can't seem to get it to show 3DS or Wii U games on sale. I doubt that there's a whole lot. I know that there's about a dozen currently on Wii U that are on sale, mostly trash. Big difference in numbers of Switch games on sale, <400 in Europe versus >800 in the US.

Cheers, had got that far but the filter for discounted games is Switch specific. Had a quick look in the 2DS this morning and only seen a handful of games discounted. Only just for my 2DS yesterday and there's a nice few of the games I wanted to pick up on sale in the US, hopefully we get similar sale here before Christmas.

Sorry for the ignorance, but Santa is bringing a Switch to the kid.

Are digital games region locked, or are those on sale in the US playable here?

Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair Nintendo Switch 24.99 in Smyths - it's got good reviews and could be worth a pickup at that price

Yes but you'll need to set up a separate Nintendo account with a US address. Then you need to purchase US eshop credit, you can do so on Pc Game Supply website or other alternatives. Sounds a little more complicated than it is, it's actually fairly straightforward. I seem to remember using some embassy address as the address when setting up the US account, maybe someone on here can remind us.

Thanks for that! Instabuy

Been waiting for a decent reduction.

It's a great platform game by all accounts.
Plus it's physical.
Plus Smyths are Irish.
Plus they are one of the few bricks and mortar shops around selling nintendo stuff. And not at rip-off prices ... looking at you gamestop!

edit -
e.g. BOTW is 10 quid more expensive in gamestop right now vs smyths

Generally is cause they have a higher margin on the toys but Gamestop do better promotions like 3 for 2 etc that Smyths dont.

I have it - its a great set to pass a few hours on christmas day putting together - my 8 year old son loves it

It needs a switch with detachable joy cons and connected to a tv. So not a switch lite.
