Target Offers Rare $30 Discount on Nintendo Switch 2 Games

If you've been waiting for a reason to expand your Nintendo Switch 2 library, Target might have just given you the perfect excuse. The retailer is currently running a promotion for Target Circle members that slashes $30 off the total when you pick up any two eligible games. Since Nintendo-published titles rarely see significant price drops, this is a deal you probably won't want to ignore.

The sale covers a massive selection of 224 titles, ranging from physical cartridges to digital codes. What’s particularly exciting is the inclusion of recent Switch 2 heavyweights. We’re talking about hits like Donkey Kong Bananza, Mario Kart World, and the long-awaited Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. It seems Target is aiming to capture the attention of those who recently jumped into the next-gen Nintendo ecosystem.

For those looking to grab Kirby Air Riders or Mario Tennis Fever, the discount applies at checkout once you've signed into your free membership account. However, keep in mind that this offer is fleeting—it’s set to expire at 2:59 AM ET on April 5th. If you’ve been eyeing these titles, now is the time to act before the price jumps back up to the standard $70 or $80 mark.

One quick tip for our fellow gamers: while many of these games come on traditional cartridges, some newer Switch 2 titles are using "Game Key Cards" that require a full download. With the console's 256GB internal SSD filling up faster than ever, you might want to consider pairing this deal with a microSD Express card. Samsung’s 256GB model is currently hovering around $59 on Amazon, which could be a smart secondary investment to keep your library accessible.
