The Nintendo eShop has a spooky amount of discounts running for the next two weeks.
Check out details of the 2017 eShop Halloween sale.
We’re often critical of the Nintendo eShop release schedule here on Thumbsticks. Sometimes it feels that weeks go by without a decent release. The situation is not helped by the design of the eShop itself. It’s nowhere near as bad as the Xbox One store, but unless you know what you are looking for it’s hard to stumble upon something unexpected.
That being said, the Wii U and 3DS have quietly built up sizeable libraries and when a big sale comes along – such as this week’s Halloween spooktacular – it’s a reminder of how many high-quality titles are hidden away.
These Halloween discounts are running on the EU eShop until Thursday 3rd November, unless specified.

Ew, where’s the sale in the US??? I thought thsy did one every year for Halloween for us too, but nothing is up!! All there is is categories of “spooky games”, “zombie” games, “boo” games, etc, but none of those are on sale. And the eshop music changed to a Halloween song instead, but no sale? WHY????? Nintendo, what did the US do to you to deserve this treatment? And why are there no games to redeem gold coins for on My Nintendo either???? I don’t want to spend those HARD EARNED gold coins for DISCOUNTS, mostly on games that everybody already owns by now too.
