Nintendo Switch Game Voucher is Ending - News

Nintendo announced it will be ending the Nintendo Switch Game Voucher service on January 30, 2026 at 11:59 pm PT.
A pair of Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers is priced at $99.98 and allows you to purchase two select Switch 1 games. If those games cost $59.99 that would be a savings of $20.
Vouchers are redeemable for 12 months from the date of purchase and don't have to be used at the same time. The vouchers cannot be redeemed for Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive games.
"Game vouchers remain valid for 12 months from purchase," said Nintendo. "For example, if a set of Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers is purchased on January 30, 2026, each Nintendo Switch Game Voucher remains valid until January 30, 2027."

This was never an amazing deal to begin with (and came with the 12 month redeem window), but apparently even that is too generous for Nintendo nowadays. 😅
Was it because this would help consumers save money and Nintendo is not about that life anymore? lol
Probably cuz they don't care about Switch games anymore so why bother giving people discounts on them. They want people moving to the new system and buying the $70-$80 games.
They still care about Switch games. That's why they're still making games for it and plan to increase the Switch 1 prices soon. There's not enough Switch 2 games out yet so current Switch 2 owners can still end up buying Switch 1 games.
150 million units out there and still selling, im sure nintendo still cares about switch games for the next couple years or so
Everytime I see news like this, I have less hope for the release of the Switch Nintendo Selects...
Sadly, any more than a slight chance of that happening is going to have to wait until mid to late Switch 2 gen.
Greedy Nintendo at it again, fooking greedy cunts.
Boycotting them pigs pigs the only way they'll stop being greedy, I've boycott them for over a year now, stop being a sheep and start boycotting now!!
Was never a good deal anyway unless you bought a lot of Nintendo titles anyway and got almost all of them digital. Still, it was something and I did use it once.
Would've been a fantastic deal if it stayed and at the same price for Switch 2 titles. You could get Mario Kart World and DK for $100 instead of $150.
I really wish Nintendo would bring back Nintendo Selects. Even dynamic pricing for physical and digital Switch titles from $20-$40 would be welcome. Because there's no way they would make all the Selects as low as $20. Sadly, Nintendo Selects seems dead. Just like "Greatest Hits" for Xbox and PlayStation Hits for PlayStation seem dead for good.
I guess the new system is no longer connected to online vouchers because their first party titles cost $10 less digital.
