Original article [Thu 29th Dec, 2022 15:30 GMT]: You thought the season of sales was over? When are the sales ever over? Following its Festive Sale, Nintendo has launched its annual New Year sale, where you can get up to 75% off of some absolute corkers from now until 8th January 2023.

We’re talking big games in this year’s sale — Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening are both 33% off, while Persona 5 Royal is also 30% off. What better way to ring in the new year than pouring your life into a 100+ hour RPG?

Before we jump into that, while our mega Christmas sale has ended, you can still snap up some discounted eShop credit to do all of your shopping with. 2023 is going to be a busy one.
