Even some of the smaller discounts that launched as part of this Halloween 2024 eShop sale are worth checking out. E.g., the 10% price cut on the hit deck-building roguelikeBalatromight not look like much, but it matches the game’s historically low Switch price of $12.74.
Nintendo Switch Lite
The Nintendo Switch Lite was released in 2019 as a low-cost, handheld-only game system. It’s designed specifically for handheld play, offering a lightweight design as part of its portable offerings. The controllers are built into the system for handheld play, unlike the larger Switch models. The console itself retains full functionality as a standard Switch, but it does not support docked mode.
