Start the year off with new Switch games
The Nintendo eShop is celebrating the start of the year with some sales on Switch games. The new Year Sale is live right now, with decent cuts into a chunk of the Nintendo Switch’s catalog.
This year’s sale runsfrom January 5 to January 15, at 11:59 p.m. PT. Purchases here goes towards Gold Points too, so it’s easy to rack up some extra spending cash.
Some highlights of this sale are actually some surprisingly recent games. For those looking to dump many, many hours into the Nintendo Switch at the start of the year, you don’t need to look much further thanPersona 5 Royal. The massive RPG finally made its way toNintendo Switch last year, and the 30% cut drops the price tag down to $41.99.
Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hopeis also on sale, albeit only for its Gold Edition. While the 22% cut takes it down to roughly $70, just a hair above the base game’s price, it also include the Season Pass. And if you want a solid tactics game withsome surprising and inventive takeson the genre, you’re able to’t really go wrong withSparks of Hope.
Heck, evenSonic Frontiersis seeing a 30% price cut, andAI: The Somnium Files – nirvanA Initiativehas also dropped by 30% for the sale too. This is a solid way to catch up on some games you might have missed at the end of last year.

The Switch sales carry on
My personal pick from the sale isCeleste, the incredible 2018 platformer which is dropped to a mere $5 for this sale. Seriously, if you haven’t playedCeleste, it is well worth your time.
Some other price cuts have been popping up on the eShop too, as noted by social media sales aggregatorWario64. So if you’re still looking to get a slightly obscure 3DS game likeCuldcept Revoltfor a low, low price, now’s the time to do so.
