Nintendo announced Black Friday discounts on its own games starting November 22, a rare occurrence for the publisher. Donkey Kong Bananza, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, Kirby Air Riders, and Super Mario Party Jamboree will each drop $20 in price at retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Walmart, and Nintendo's U.S. stores through November 29. This means Donkey Kong Bananza will sell for $50 instead of $70. Switch versions of Super Mario Party Jamboree and Metroid Prime 4 will also receive $20 reductions.
Nintendo will also bring back the Mario Kart World Switch 2 bundle on November 22 at $500, matching the current standalone Switch 2 price. The bundle includes three months of Nintendo Switch Online and runs through December 5, pending stock availability. The Switch 2 price increased $50 since its June 2025 launch due to what the report describes as an AI-driven component crisis and tariffs.
The eShop will run its own Black Friday sale from November 19 to December 2. The report does not detail which games will be discounted or what price reductions will apply.
