Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers: how they work and eligible games

Add as a preferred source on Google

Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers vanished from the eShop in 2019, but they’ve since made a triumphant return. Though they won’t be perfect for everyone, these vouchers are ideal for folks interested in playing multiple Switch games throughout the year and looking to save a few bucks on their purchase. After buying a voucher, you’ll be able to browse an ever-growing selection of digital Switch games — including Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Tears of the Kingdom — and snag them at a discount.

Curious about the Nintendo Switch Game Voucher program? Here’s everything you need to know about the unique program.

How Nintendo Switch Vouchers work

Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers are available for purchase on the official Nintendo website in pairs for a total of $100. However, they are only available to current subscribers of the Nintendo Switch Online service. Once purchased, you can redeem each voucher for a digital game currently available via the catalog. Considering almost every game on that list retails for $60, you could potentially save $20 by purchasing vouchers rather than buying two titles individually.

Once purchased, Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers are redeemable for up to 12 months, so you are free to hold on to one or both until a game that catches your eye enters the catalog. You can hold up to a maximum of eight vouchers per account at any time.

Thankfully, that silence finally seems to be ending.

Ubisoft has confirmed that it will share Ghost Recon news on August 6, when the series celebrates its 25th anniversary. The announcement arrived shortly after fresh leaks began circulating online, prompting the company to post a brief message telling fans that more information is just around the corner.

The AI game-dev boom has a dark side: fewer jobs for the people starting out

AI is making it easier than ever for a single person to build a game. That sounds like a win for creativity, and in many ways, it absolutely is. But there is a catch. As generative AI tools help solo developers and small studios do more with fewer people, the same shift is making life tougher for writers, artists, concept creators, and junior programmers trying to break into the gaming industry.
