With the recent news that a new OLED model of the Nintendo Switch is landing in October, excitement for Nintendo’s hybrid console is at an all-time high. If you’re looking to shore up your collection of Switch games before upgrading to the new model, you’re in luck. Best Buy currently has a slew of awesome titles for the hybrid system on sale.
This over-the-top fighting game lives up to its name in a stunning way. In every way, the newest Smash Bros title is the Ultimate entry in the franchise. This stellar fighting game brings characters from countless video game franchises together for a massive battle royale. If you’re a fan of fast-paced, frenetic action, this is the game for you.
While it’s fun to play this game solo, it’s even more fun to play with friends. Get your pals all together and get ready to have a blast with this explosive party game. You can scoop this title up for just $45 over at Best Buy, a full $15 off of its MSRP.
The third entry in the ghost-busting Luigi’s Mansion series is a return to form for the green-clad plumber. After the unusual 3DS detour, Dark Moon, Luigi’s Mansion 3 returns to the slow-paced, open-world exploration of the first title. As Luigi, players scour a haunted hotel, looking for clues about where Mario and Princess Peach have been taken.
Battling ghosts, solving puzzles, and exploring a sprawling haunted location are all key to the fun in this excellent Switch exclusive. If you missed out on this title, you’re in luck: it’s on sale for $20 off at Best Buy right now, bringing it down to just $40.
In the same vein as Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart is an incredible party game to play with all of your friends. The huge tracks, fast-paced action, and arcade-style fun on display make this title a visual feast for Switch owners. And, if you’re a solo player, there’s tons of content to sink your teeth into.
Twelve Grand Prix cups, numerous time trial challenges, and a fun collection of minigames all work together to make this the definitive version of Mario Kart. Additionally, this Switch port comes with all of the DLC from the original Wii U release, meaning you get additional racers like Link from the Legend of Zelda series and the Inklings from Splatoon. Like the other games on this list, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is on sale at Best Buy right now, marked down to $45.
