The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is on sale for $52 at Woot for the next few days–or until it sells out, which is very likely to happen. Echoes of Wisdom just released on September 26, so this offer existing at all is a bit surprising. So if you didn’t pick up a copy of the latest Zelda game at launch or planned on buying it again as a gift this holiday, now’s your chance to save eight bucks. Amazon Prime members get free shipping on all orders from Woot, which is essentially the online equivalent of an outlet mall with deals you won’t often find at major retailers.


Nintendo Switch Game Deals at Woot

Woot’s deals on Switch exclusives tend to sell out fast, so you’ll want to be quick if you’re interested in any of the games listed below. As of October 15, Woot’s site lists the end date for these days as four days from now, so they will likely disappear before the weekend whether they sell out or not.

Nintendo Switch Exclusives – Save on 2024 Switch New Releases

Deals on Super Mario Bros. Wonder, 3 Pokemon Games , and More Switch Exclusives


The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom pays homage to the franchise’s classic formula while also embracing the modern era ushered in by Breath of the Wild and expanded upon in 2023’s Tears of the Kingdom. It’s the first mainline entry in the series with Princess Zelda in the leading role, and it plays a lot differently than previous top-down iterations starring Link. Zelda’s ability to create echoes (copies) of objects and monsters to solve puzzles, cross gaps, and fight offers a fun new spin on the classic formula. Just like Tears of the Kingdom, there are many ways to solve puzzles. Echoes of Wisdom also has key components of the classics, including traditional dungeons and Heart Pieces.

All long-time fans should play Echoes of Wisdom, but it would also make for a great first Zelda game for newcomers. It earned a 9/10 in our The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom review.

Echoes of Wisdom isn’t the only Nintendo Switch exclusive on sale at Woot; it’s not even the only 2024 release discounted to its best price yet. Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition is available for only $25, Mario vs. Donkey Kong is down to $40, and Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD and Princess Peach: Showtime are $45 each.

Nintendo World Championships, a competitive minigame compilation based on the real 1990 event, hadn’t received a discount since its July launch. It’s important to note that this deal is for the game itself, not the version that comes with a replica gold NES cart, 13 art cards, and a set of pins. If you want the collectibles, Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition – Deluxe Set is still available at multiple retailers for its $60 list price, including Target and Best Buy–though it is sold out at Walmart.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong, a remake of the classic puzzle-platformer for Game Boy Advance, has maintained its $50 list price since launching in February, so the 20% discount is an awesome deal.

Woot also has notable deals on Nintendo Switch exclusives released prior to 2024. Most notably, Super Mario Bros. Wonder is on sale for $45. Pokemon fans can get $20 discounts on a trio of titles: Pokemon Sword and Shield and Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu, the stellar remake of Pokemon Yellow. Meanwhile, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is available for $43. Despite releasing back in 2018, Smash Bros. Ultimate is rarely discounted below $50 at major retailers.



PSA: Woot’s new approach to selling Nintendo Switch games

Note: Woot recently reconfigured its Nintendo Switch listings to note that physical games ordered from the retailer are region-free editions. This means that you aren’t guaranteed to get a North American edition of the Switch games you order from Woot. All Nintendo Switch consoles are region-free, and Nintendo includes multiple language options in most games, including English in all of the Switch games listed in this article. If you get an international import, the only visible difference is the ratings board logo on the box, which is always ESRB for North American releases.

When it comes to actually playing the game, you won’t notice any differences between the North American, UK, Japanese versions, etc. The one potential snag is with DLC. For example, if you buy the UK edition of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, any DLC you purchase in the future must be from the UK eShop. North American Switch owners can easily create UK and Japanese eShop user accounts on Switch, so this is more of a potential annoyance than anything else, but it’s worth keeping in mind. That said, most of the games above–and first-party Switch games in general–are fully self-contained and don’t offer DLC.

Of the games on sale at Woot, four of them have notable add-on content: Smash Bros., Luigi’s Mansion 3, and Pokemon Sword and Shield.
