Nintendo Switch Pokémon Games Are on Sale for Pokémon Day

There’s a whole bunch of great deals that are now live for Pokémon’s 30th Anniversary celebrations, and that includes some outstanding new discounts on Pokémon games for Nintendo Switch consoles.

Amazon’s Woot store has been known to offer a bunch of deals in the past, but it might just have outdone itself this time around with its brand new “Video Games For All!” sale. The biggest standout is on Legends Z-A, which is down just $35.92 on Nintendo Switch when using promo code LEVEL20.

IGN’s Rebekah Valentine gave the game an 8 out of 10 in her review last year, saying “Pokémon Legends: Z-A finally feels like Game Freak hitting its stride in Pokémon’s 3D era, with a fun setting to explore, a well-written story, and a total battle system overhaul that works surprisingly well.”

It now even features in our special 10 Best Pokémon Video Games of All Time roundup, “It may be the most recent game in the franchise, but Pokémon Legends: Z-A is an exciting look into the future of pocket monsters. A total overhaul of the classic 30-year old battle system sees turn-based attack rallies transformed into real-time action sequences, bringing the video games closer to the epic clashes of the beloved anime than ever before.”

You can also upgrade to the Switch 2 version digitally as well for just $10 after making your purchase, making this a certified bargain. Plus, Legends Z-A isn’t the only game up for grabs at a discount either, as you can also score Scarlet for just $35.99, which is one of the best prices I’ve ever seen on the Gen 9 game. Violet is also available at a discount, if just a slight bit more expensive at $37.59. Both of these run incredibly on Switch 2, so I’d highly recommend playing them on the new console if you can.

There’s also Legends Arceus, Sword, and Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee, all available at a reduced price today. But, and this is a big but, these are certified Pokémon Day deals that will expire by the end of today (February 27, 11:59 PM CT, to be exact). I wouldn’t be surprised is several sell out even before then, so act fast to avoid disappointment.
