There havenât been a lot of opportunities to catch Switch 2 games on sale since the console launched in early June, but thatâs changing thanks to Woot. The store is having a sale on new video games and game accessories thatâs live now, and runs through November 8th at 11:59PM CT. Dozens of games for all three current-generation systems are on sale, but the Switch 2 titles caught our eye because of how new they are. Wootâs deals are especially enticing because first-party Nintendo games donât go on sale very often.
Wootâs sale also includes discounts on Switch 2 exclusives, including Donkey Kong Banaza and Mario Kart World, and Switch 2 Edition versions of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Kirby and the Forgotten Land Plus Star-Crossed World. The latter are enhanced versions of games released for the original Switch that have new exclusive content, a boost in performance, or both. If you already own the original versions of these games, Nintendo allows you to download a paid upgrade pack to get the enhancements instead of paying full price for the entire game.
There are also some respectable discounts on games released for the original Nintendo Switch, which can be played on the Switch 2, so weâve included them here. In some cases games are listed as being an âinternational versionâ of the title, which is fine because the Nintendo Switch 2 is a region free console thatâs able to play them.
Donkey Kong Bananza
Donkey Kong Bananza is one of the Switch 2âs first exclusive must-have titles. Its destructible environment allows you to smash your way through each of its 17 levels, and the paths you make will remain intact unless you specifically choose to reset the world. Your companion Pauleneâs singing allows you to transform into animals that have abilities that allow you to reach previously inaccessible parts of levels. Read our review.
Mario Kart World mixes up the formula thatâs remained more or less the same since 1992. You still progress by out-racing your competitors across several cups, but thereâs a new Knockout Tour mode in which you actually drive from stage to stage in an interconnected world. Thereâre new weapons to collect, an item that allows you to change costumes mid-race, and a single player mode loaded with challenges. Read our review.
The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild Switch 2 Edition
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is one of the most highly-regarded games of all time thanks to its massive open world. The game gives you little direction after a brief tutorial, so youâre free to examine every nook and cranny at your leisure without hitting a single story beat. The Switch 2 Edition runs in 4K at 60 frames per second, so you can appreciate Hyrule even more. Read our hands-on.
Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom Switch 2 Edition
The Switch 2 Edition of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has the same technical enhancements as Breath of the Wild, but theyâre more welcome here because the game struggled to run a bit on the original Switch. The game is set in the same environment as its predecessor, but Hyrule is more dense, so thereâs even more to explore. Your physics-based powers help a lot with traversal. Read our review.
At its heart, Super Mario Party Jamboree Plus Jamboree TV is a game based around playing a board game with friends. However, optional modes that allow you to play the mini games in rapid succession, or take down Imitation Bowser with bombs shot through a cannon keep it feeling fresh. The Switch 2-exclusive Jamboree TV mode introduces mini games that utilize the systemâs Joy-Con 2 mouse controls and optional USB-C Camera.Â
Kirby and the Forgotten Land Plus Star-Crossed World
Kirby and the Forgotten Land Plus Star-Crossed World includes the original Switch title, plus 12 levels whose environments have been reshaped by a meteorite. Traversing the new worlds requires finding alternate routes and completing new platforming challenges. Thereâs also a new final boss if you complete the Ultimate Cup Z EX cup in its Colosseum boss rush mode, which requires you to face off against bosses one after another. Read our review.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first new side-scrolling Mario game in a long time, and combines the gameplay of previous titles with a neat twist. You still stomp goombas, collect coins, and transform by using mushrooms and other power-ups. However, each level contains âWonder Seeds,â which turn the stage into a challenging, psychedelic stage when collected. The collectible makes stages even more eye-catching and challenging to clear. Read our review.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate feels like the series capstone title. It contains every character and level from previous Super Smash Bros. games, and the ability to expand the roster through paid downloadable content. The gameplay is largely the same (choose a fighter and play against people in the same room or online), but its single player âSpirit Modeâ lets you progress through a story through matches with set objectives. Read our review.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the ultimate cozy game. The life sim allows you to build an entirely new town from scratch on a deserted island. The game starts slowly, but youâll continually improve your living space, craft tools, gather resources, and make the town attractive enough for other characters to move in. New Horizons runs on a real-world clock, a mechanic that incentivizes you to play in short bursts every day. Read our review.
Splatoon 3 is proof that Nintendo isnât done showing off its take on an online shooterâwith paint instead of bullets, of course. The game looks great, and has a single player mode that fills out the seriesâ lore through scrapbook pages you find while navigating and shooting your way through each level. Online multiplayer remains Splatoonâs 3âs big draw, so be prepared to square off against fellow squid kids. Read our review.
Super Mario Maker 2 lets you show off your game designer skills by giving you the tools necessary to construct and share your own Super Mario Bros. levels. You can place enemies, obstacles, power ups, and secrets with very few restrictions. You can to make a Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and New Super Mario Bros., themed level, and string together multiple stages into a single world. Read our review.
