| Wman1996 said: Sadly, buying a first-party Nintendo game brand new for under $40 is nearly impossible. Even with retailers, you have to luck out on a great sale or clearance. The cheapest way to get Nintendo games on Switch is typically to get the loose game card, because you can find those for $30-$35 if the game is old enough. Still, I've never gotten a used Switch game yet and would probably get a used one complete in box. This thread does remind me of the scary fact that some AAA games could be $90-$100 by the mid-2030s. |
Yeah I dont buy used games so thats not an option for me lol
Not that it matters anymore since I buy digital only.
But ya like you said, retailers tend to do special price cuts/deals that the first party doesnt do. I've found a few good deals that way - like some Nintendo games were $30. I still remember that infamous Gamestop price cut during black friday - thankfully Amazon and Best Buy price matched and I was able to get a lot of Mario and Pokemon games for $25 to $30 lol.
