Nintendo’s Customer Appreciation Sale Will Offer Up to 30% Off Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 Games
The U.S.-only promotion will run from September 12 at 9 p.m. PT through September 26 at 8:59 p.m. PT and include discounts of up to 30% on select games, DLC, accessories, amiibo, and apparel for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.
Nintendo’s Customer Appreciation Sale will offer U.S. shoppers discounts of up to 30% on select Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 games, bundles, DLC, accessories, amiibo, apparel, and other physical products from September 12 through September 26.
Nintendo of America says the sale will run from September 12 at 9 p.m. PT through September 26 at 8:59 p.m. PT. Shoppers will find the offers through the Nintendo eShop, Nintendo Store, and participating retailers across the United States.
What Nintendo’s Customer Appreciation Sale includes
The 30% figure is the maximum advertised reduction, so it does not mean every item in the sale will receive the same discount. Nintendo has not shared the full list of games, DLC, or physical products, along with their individual prices.
Nintendo says the promotion is meant to thank players for their continued support. The company’s official announcement calls the sale “our way of saying thank you to Nintendo players for their continued support and is made possible in part by tariff-related refunds.”
Nintendo connects the sale to tariff refunds
Nintendo says tariff-related refunds helped make the promotion possible after the company and more than 1,000 others sued the U.S. government over tariffs they considered unlawful. The company also said it absorbed most of the tariff costs before receiving the refunds.
For shoppers, the practical result is a future discount opportunity rather than money returned from an earlier purchase. In 2025, Nintendo raised U.S. prices by $30 for Switch Lite, $40 for the standard Switch, and $50 for the Switch OLED Model. Two players later filed a proposed class action arguing that tariff-related money returned to Nintendo should go to buyers.
Nintendo asked the court to dismiss that case, arguing that customers received the console, game, or accessory they agreed to buy at the price they accepted. The Customer Appreciation Sale is a broad promotion rather than a direct payment to people who bought hardware at the higher prices.
Similar consumer cases involving Microsoft and Sony have also moved through the courts, with both companies asking judges to dismiss tariff refund claims in separate refund disputes.
The sale gives U.S. players a two-week window to check the eShop, Nintendo Store, and participating retailers for the available offers once Nintendo reveals the full selection.
