Discounted Nintendo eShop cards are a rare treat, and today Newegg has dropped a $200 Nintendo eShop Digital Gift Card down to $173 when you apply promo code NGZF444 at checkout for one day only.
Gift card discounts are fairly common at Newegg, but this deal just takes the cake, with a ~13.5% savings on first-party Nintendo credit a no-brainer for active Switch players.
Bonus Trick: Use Your Credit for a Nintendo Switch 2
If you aren’t planning on blowing $200 on digital games or DLC immediately, you can use your eShop balance directly on Nintendo’s online store toward something like the… Nintendo Switch 2. That’s pretty cool, right?
Switch 2 consoles currently retail for $449.99, but the official console price is set to increase by $50, to $500, on September 1. That’s only a matter of days away!
Because codes are delivered digitally via email right after purchase, you can immediately add the funds to your account. Nintendo allows account wallets to hold up to $800 at a time.
If you stack these discounted $200 cards, you can fund a Switch 2 entirely through discounted credit before the price jump kicks in.
Or, just secure $400 in credit for just $346, and pay the extra $50 yourself. Either way, it’s a great deal, and you can purchase the console using your funds via the Nintendo online store.
Promo code NGZF444 is only active while supplies last on Newegg today, so lock in the savings before the deal expires.
If you’re after something a little more affordable, but still want some savings, quick reminder that Amazon still has their 15% off $10 eShop gift card deal on right now as well.
