There Will Be No Switch Discounts This Holiday Season

November 20, 2017 by Jordan Coetsee

Nintendo’s Reggie Fils-Aime confirms.

Hoping to capitalize on the holiday rush when it comes to purchasing a Switch? We have some bad news for you, Nintendo’s Reggie Fils-Aime during an interview with Washington Post has confirmed that there will not be any exclusive Switch discounts this holiday season.

“We are not discounting the Switch…. We’re focusing on making sure we have robust supply at retail,” Fils-Aime said.

It sucks that Nintendo won’t be running any deals – but it makes sense. The console has been performing extremely well since launch, discounts aren’t really a necessary marketing strategy at this stage.

That being said, if you are looking at picking up one of Nintendo’s hybrid consoles you can always browse the classifieds and find a second-hand console.

In other Nintendo news, the sandbox RPG title, Portal Knights has been announced to release on the Switch.

‘Portal Knights, the award-winning sandbox RPG has a release date for Nintendo’s hybrid console, the Switch. The minecraft–esque title will be landing on the console November 23rd for $29.99. If you are interested in grabbing the title, you can pre-order it on Nintendo’s e-shop, here. ‘
