The original story [Tue 15th Nov, 2022 17:15 GMT]: We are still a little far from Black Friday2022 (November 25th) Although that didn’t stop Nintendo UK from getting into the sales spirit as it announced today that the sale of its eShop will begin on Thursday – November 17th. Yep, nowhere near Black Friday itself.
The announcement came in the form of a tweet from @employee It specifies that the sale is for the online store only – so don’t expect any discounts on Mario LEGO Just Until now.
Of course, while Nintendo did bake what is sure to be a delicious selling sandwich, it’s missing all the filling. We still don’t know which publishers will be involved and to what levels the games will be discounted.
Combine this with the fact that we’re currently unsure if any region outside of Europe will get a similar offer early and it’s fair to say we actually know very little at the moment. What we do know is that it will start later this week.
Elsewhere, just a few weeks ago, we heard about sales plans for My Nintendo Store in the United States, which will offer discounts on toys and boxed goods alike. There’s currently no word on what’s going to happen with the eShop during this period, but you’ll be able to find out all the pre-sale information for both the US and UK in our handy guide soon.
