Great Nintendo Switch And 3DS Eshop Deals This Week (US Only)

Unlike Sony and Microsoft, Nintendo has no official weekly sale that begins and ends at pre-determined times. That said, Thursdays tend to be when the most game deals appear for Nintendo Switch and 3DS. This week finds a few new notable discounts, plus some good deals still hanging on from weeks past. And if you don't find anything you want here, Amazon has many of the Switch's best games on sale right now.

The biggest Switch game on sale on the Eshop this week is L.A. Noire, the 1940s detective game that's set during the Golden Age of Hollywood. It follows a young detective over several years as he moves through various departments, investigating murders, arsons, and racketeering cases. It's on sale for $25, down from $50. Note that this game is so big it requires you to have a microSD card in your switch for additional storage (you can grab a 128GB one on sale for $40 right now).

Letter Quest Remastered is a charming mix between a word game and an RPG; it's on sale for just $3. The rhythm-based roguelike Crypt of the Necrodancer is down to $8, and the clever puzzle platformer Bomb Chicken is on sale for $9.

And if RPG fans are looking for a reason to keep their 3DS/2DS on hand, they have two good ones this week. The time-traveling game Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology is on sale for $28. And anyone who likes to hand-draw maps while exploring labyrinthine dungeons can pick up Etrian Odyssey V: Beyond the Myth for $22.50.
