Snag a sizable discount on a pricey game
We’ve seen the video game pricing debate play out time and again. Every time a studio bumps up the price of a major release, people comment on how things are getting out of hand, other people counter that video game prices actually rise very slowly relative to other luxury goods, and so on and so forth. Unsurprisingly, when Nintendo revealed thatThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomwould retail for $69.99, this debate returned. The good news is, you probably don’t actually need to pay $69.99 forTears of the Kingdom.
Last week, Nintendo brought backNintendo Switch Game Vouchers, a discount system that essentially allows Nintendo Switch Online customers to purchase two games for a total of $99.98. Most voucher-eligible games cost $59.99, meaning that you’ll usually save twenty bucks going the voucher route.The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, with its heftier price tag, isactually included in the voucher program. That means that if you’ve got your eye on a second Switch game (Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp, anyone?), you’re able to save a total of $30 by buying it alongsideTears of the Kingdom.
For whatever it’s worth, though, I would gladly trade in my Game Vouchers for the return of Nintendo Selects. I miss you so much, Nintendo Selects.
