The best Amazon Prime Day 2023 Nintendo Switch game sales

Amazon Prime Day 2023 Nintendo sales include a broad range of the best Switch games from Nintendo themselves, indie publishers, and well-known third-party games. Whether you’re after Fire Emblem, Super MarioPokemon, or some of the Switch’s meatier RPGs, there’s almost certainly something for you in the sale – unless you’re after hardware. Nintendo isn’t offering any discounts on the Switch itself.

These deals last until Amazon Prime Day 2023 ends – July 12, 2023 – or until supply runs out.

If you’re after deals for PlayStation, we’ve got some hot picks for Prime Day PlayStation deals as well.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: $44.97

Xenoblade Chronicles 3, the most recent RPG epic from Nintendo and Monolith Soft, is going for $44.97. This is the standard version of the game. If you want the expansion pass, with its extra classes and epilogue story, you’ll have to shell out another $29 for it.

Pokemon Scarlet: $42.99

Pokemon Scarlet, half of the record-breaking new Pokemon duo, is down to $42.99. It’s the same journey across Paldea as Pokemon Violet, just with a few different Pokemon thrown in – and it’s two dollars less expensive. Violet is also on sale, but for $44.99.

Super Mario Odyssey: $29.99

Super Mario Odyssey, one of the best Super Mario games, is on sale for the exceptionally low price of $29.99. It’s rare to see Nintendo games drop below $40, so this is quite the deal.

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond: $35.99

This half of the Switch remakes of the hit Nintendo DS Pokemon games is discounted to $35.99 from its usual $59.99. Its counterpart, Shining Pearl, is going for a little bit more – $37.50.

Shin Megami Tensei 5: $29.99

The latest in Atlus’ dark, brooding take on monster-hunting RPGs is on sale for $29.99. If you’re expecting something like Persona, think again. Shin Megami Tensei is more focused on combat and narrative choices than Persona, even though the two series are closely related.

Tactics Ogre Reborn: $29.99

We might not have that rumored Final Fantasy Tactics remake yet, but Tactics Ogre is the next best thing – and, in some ways, even better. It’s a tragic, unforgettable story where your choices have drastically different effects on how events unfold, and you can get this polished remake of the classic Let Us Cling Together for $29.99.

Shop Tactics Ogre Reborn

Sakuna - Of Rice and Ruin: $19.99

Sakuna is a radically different take on the farming sim that blends sidescrolling action elements with a deep farming sim that puts you in control of your rice crop’s every aspect. There’s nothing else like it, and it’s down to $19.99 during the Prime Day sale.

Shop Sakuna - Or Rice and Ruin

Octopath Traveler 2: $39.99

Octopath Traveler 2 is down to $39.99, a decent deal considering the new-and-improved RPG only launched in February 2023. It’s a stronger take on the original game’s concepts with more memorable characters, better battles, and an absolutely stellar soundtrack.

Shop Octopath Traveler 2

NieR Automata: $29.99

The Switch port of Square Enix’s modern classic is discounted to $29.99 and includes all the game’s DLC. It’s the perfect way to play through Automata enough times to finally get the true ending.

Shop NieR Automata

Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope: $19.99

The Mario+Rabbids sequel is going for just $19.99, and while it doesn’t include the DLC expansions, the base game, with its expansive character roster and improved take on the original’s tactics, is a blast on its own.

Shop Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes: $29.99

Three Hopes, the half-sequel, half-retelling of Fire Emblem Three Houses, is down to $29.99. It trades tactics for fast-paced action, as you and your allies from the academy face down thousands of foes and try to save the continent from chaos and war.

Shop Fire Emblem Warriors

Crisis Core - Final Fantasy 7 Reunion: $34.99

While you’re waiting for Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 2, catch up with Crisis Core, the prequel to the original game that tells the story of Sephiroth’s downfall and how Zack Fair and Cloud came to be connected. It’s on sale for $34.99.
