Nintendo Switch Games For Under $5 | January 2025

New year, new Nintendo sales folks! We’re back with more deals to bring us through 2025 until the Switch 2 announcement in April. There’s also some other great deals currently on the eShop such as the Moving Out Deluxe Edition for $8.99 and The Sinking City for the lucky price of $8.88, ahead of The Sinking City 2’s release later this year. 

Cook For Love Ultimate Edition – $4.50

This bundle includes two pieces of downloadable content and is usually $21! I love cooking games so it’s a no-brainer this is in the list. Cook For Love seems like an ASMR, chill, interactive story cooking game from my favourite hentai game maker RedDeer.Games. They’re really catering to all markets! Sale goes for ages too, until February 22nd. 

Elli – $3.36

Elli looks like a relaxing cross between TLOZ: Breath of the Wild and Crash Bandicoot, so what’s not to like? Filled with puzzles, it’s suitable for kids and adults alike. Sale ends on January 28th.

Pack Master – $2.10

A game about packing? Sold! Challenge yourself to fill your suitcase with different objects while you travel to different international cities. If you like Tetris, this is for you. Sale ends on January 29th.

Goetia – $2.10

I usually hate horror games but if I get to BE the ghost, that’s a different story. Play as the ghost of young Abigail Blackwood to find out what happened to you and the manor you haunt. It’s giving Wuthering Heights. Sale ends on January 29th.

Make it! Oden – $3

A multiplayer cooking game? Sold! Prepare oden for customers according to their order, making sure you cook the ingredients properly. Compete with up to three other players in battle mode. Sale is cooking until February 5th. 

The Experiment: Escape Room – $3.90

You’re drugged and have to escape a crazy doctor before he can experiment on you. I like escape games just as long as nothing jumps out at me, except for the price. Sale ends on February 6th.

The Big Journey – $1.50

I’m glad I can include The Big Journey this time because I missed the sale window last time! Play as Mr. Whiskers on his jump and roll adventure to find his favourite dumplings. Get trippy on the artwork. Sale ends on January 29th. 

Neurodeck – $2.46

Neurodeck is a “psychological deck building card game to challenge your fears”. It sounds super different to any game I’ve played, and is focused on mental health. Sale ends on January 29th. 

Baby Storm – $3.00

I admit I clicked on this because the name is funny but it sounds super fun as well! A multiplayer game with up to four players, look after kids in a kindergarten. You have toys, food, wipes, diapers, and a vacuum to help you. Avoid making them cry! Sounds like Overcooked with babies. Pick it up for this price until January 29th.

Violett – $2.10

Violett reminds me so much of It Takes Two, except single player. The artwork, although similar, has its own edgier vibe. Violett’s family has moved to an old spooky house in the middle of nowhere, and gets thrust into an adventure she didn’t bargain for. Sale ends on January 29th too.
