Check the full sale (Can't find a full easy itemised list around, I made this one manually): https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Search/Search-299117.html?f=147394-5-10-72-6955

Even for an indie sale they don't have Baba is You, Obra Dinn, Firewatch or Into the Breach :(
I attached a poll of games I'm interested in though :)

---

I'm waiting on The Ninja Saviors as the game I'd want from there.

---

Some games just never seem to go on sale for some reason :/

Also forgot to put Steamworld Quest in the poll, as the only one of that series I haven't touched.

---

no first party titles on sale last year this time either

i distinctly remember because i held off on buying Tropical Freeze because i didn't want to pay $60 for an updated port of a game that came out in 2014 and was very upset that not only did that not go on sale, no first party titles did.

DQ I-III
Shovel Knight

---

Yo that Alien Isolation port is good. Looks and runs better on Switch than PS4.

---

Guess I shouldn't be surprised at the only RPG dominating the poll!

Is the American Xmas sale not up yet or do you guys just not have one usually?

---

All I see right now that's at all relevant is a Bandai Namco Winter Meltdown Sale.

---

I believe America now has Capcom and Ubisoft sales going, so it's pretty much the same thing as EU but without the indie sale. Also more games have been added to the European sale, including:

Ape Out
Disgaea 1, 4, 5
Into the Breach (they must've read my complaint!)
Octopath Traveler
Saints Row III, IV
Shantae
Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection

Probably a bunch more but it's hard to sift through them and see what's newly added.

---

Post-Xmas bump, couple days left on these sales!

---

Do Capcom still do 3DS eShop sales? It used to seem like half their games were reduced pretty much every other week, right up to the point where I finally got around to finishing AA5... and AA6 has been full price ever since.
---

I'm in the same boat, been checking every week on AA6 for like 6 months and no luck. I think I've seen RE on sale in that time so it might just be AA they stopped, and AA is frequently on sale on Switch so idk. Sucks if they really stopped for good. Maybe we'll get an AA4-6 trilogy instead...

---

AA6 is on sale right now in the american eshop

Doesn't seem like square stuff is though

---

Now there's a New Year's Sale featuring some first party titles! Generally just 30% off, but it's games you don't often see on offer. Notably:

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (and the Expansion Pass)
Super Mario Odyssey
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Luigi's Mansion 3 (and the Multiplayer Pack)
51 Worldwide Games
Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Dragon Quest XI S
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Immortals: Fenyx Rising
Sonic Mania
Borderlands The Handsome Collection
XCOM 2 Collection
Bioshock Collection
Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled (Currently free to play for Switch Online users for a few days)
Civilization VI
Puyo Puyo Tetris 2
Ace Attorney Trilogy (Nothing on 3DS, for UK at least)

Weirdly still no Donkey Kong for poor Kate lol, and no Ninja Saviors for paperwarior. No idea if the US has this too.

I did eventually get Tropical Freeze when it did finally go on sale for $40...six months later in June
