This is the best price yet for this delightful pair of remastered strategy games.

Pikmin is one of Nintendo's best--and possibly most underrated--franchises, and if you're looking to experience the series from its humble GameCube beginnings, then you're in luck. The recently released Nintendo Switch compilation just got its first major discount. Over on Walmart, you can pick up the remaster for only $39.41 (down from $50). Amazon already sold out of this same deal, so we'd recommend scooping this up quickly.
This physical edition comes with both upscaled GameCube games on one Switch cartridge. If you want to complete your collection, you can get Pikmin 3 Deluxe and Pikmin 4, which launched this year as well, for $50 each at Walmart. Amazon also has deals on Pikmin 3 Deluxe and Pikmin 4.
The original Pikmin game out in 2001 and put you in the space boots of Captain Olimar, a tiny alien stranded on an Earth-like planet. Thanks to the helpful Pikmin, Olimar was able to survive this world through a combo of platforming and real-time strategy gameplay. Pikmin 2, released in 2004, continued the series and refined it with new playable characters and Pikmin.
If you're shopping for someone this holiday who wants a Nintendo Switch, there are several enticing limited-time options up for grabs right now (they would pair well with Pikmin, of course):

I've been surrounding myself with extra gadgets since I first received my Gameboy Advance all those years ago, but no cheap case, cartridge holder, or stand is as useful as something I picked up last year. The Genki Covert Dock is a mainstay in my setup, the portable dock and charger keeps the big screen entertainment going wherever you are - hotels, friend's houses, I even hooked it up to a TV in a store once. This little lifesaver has been holding onto its $74.99 MSRP for a while, though, save for a few dips to $59.99 over Prime Day and the like. Enter 2023's Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals - and a brand new record low.
Get one of the most charming Nintendo Switch games of the year at a low price.

Hogwarts Legacy fans have been enjoying the game for the better part of this year. However, only today were those on the Nintendo Switch platform finally given access. That’s not too surprising, as we often see games get pushed further behind for the Nintendo Switch port release. But the Nintendo Switch is quickly aging, and it’s near time we get a proper successor console from the big Nintendo company. This Hogwarts Legacy release is another example of just how much content is forced out of the game just to optimize it for a release.
Initially planned for release on Game Boy Advance (complete with a compatible cartridge produced with Limited Run Games), WayForward’s Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution is coming to Nintendo Switch. Both versions will arrive in Summer 2024. Check out the latest gameplay trailer below.
With 2023 having been as packed with excellent new games as it has been, there’s plenty of titles that have sadly been a bit overlooked, and though Wishfully and Thunderful’s sidescrolling puzzle-platformer Planet of Lana is certainly one of those games that have sort of been lost in the crowd, as those who’ve played it will tell you, it’s well worth checking out. And in the relatively near future, more people will be able to.
Given the fact that Outer Wilds’ Nintendo Switch version was announced back in February 2021, and that there have been no updates on it since then, you’d be forgiven for forgetting that the game was ever supposed to come to Nintendo’s platform. Developer Mobius Digital and publisher Annapurna Interactive certainly did not, however.
Dell's back at it with a Nintendo Switch deal we usually only see over the actual Black Friday weekend. The latest console comes with a free $75 gift card right now, but looking back at previous Black Friday sales, this offer won't last too long.
