Overview

If your Nintendo Switch library could use a few new additions, or you're looking for an easy gift for the Nintendo fan in your life, Amazon has brought back one of its most reliable eShop deals as part of the summer sales.

Right now, the $10 Nintendo eShop Gift Card (Digital Code) is down to just $8.53 at Amazon, saving you 15% on your purchase. The only caveat is that you need to be a Prime member to take advantage of the new deal.

Thankfully, Amazon offers a 30-day free trial to new users, so there's an option for those who aren't currently members.

This isn't the first time we've seen this discount, either, but after disappearing for a while, it's back as we go into the Summer sale season across most online retailers.

You can buy up to two gift cards per order, making it easy to grab one for yourself and another as a gift, or simply bank some extra credit for upcoming releases.

While you might be thinking, well, it's just $1.47 off, that's not much of a saving. Yet, it's also free credit for those always making digital purchases on their Switch or Switch 2.

Details

$1.47 in savings is better than absolutely nothing, that's for sure. And if you're buying two, that's $20 in Credit for $17.06, and $2.94 in total savings.

Plus, Nintendo eShop credit can be used on far more than just full games. You can put it towards downloadable content, Nintendo Switch Online memberships, in-game currency, and a huge range of indie titles and digital exclusives.

If you're primarly gaming on Switch, this is an absolute no brainer in my eyes. You're basically leaving free credit on the table!

There's also discounts on all gift cards from $20-$100 at Amazon (for both Switch and PlayStation), locked behind a Prime Membership, but as it requires adding to cart, I can't actually see the correct pricing right now. If anyone can have a peak, and let me know the discount in the comments, that would be immensely useful!
