Amazon Prime Day 2017 kicks off today. Consumers subscribed to the retailer’s membership program will be able to save on deals for 30 hours starting at 9 PM ET / 6 PM PT.

Amazon has provided an early tease as to what’s in store this year. As for gaming, you’ll be able to save up to 50% on select titles, consoles and accessories.

Previews of the deals are starting to go live. You’ll want to keep track of this page for all of the deals. Early on, we can see the Smash Bros. 3DS will be included as well as a deluxe Switch case and Retro-Link Wired GameCube Style USB Controller. Throughout the day and into Prime Day, more deals should be added.

Just like yesterday, Amazon has the gray Switch unit in stock for Prime members. Orders can be placed here. Be quick, since this will probably sell out relatively quickly again.

Update: System has sold out.

Amazon Germany has started pre-orders for the new Metroid and Mario amiibo. These include the figures for Samus Returns, the new additions in the Super Mario series line, and the upcoming Super Mario Odyssey releases.

Everything can be pre-ordered from Amazon Germany here. Peach in her wedding outfit is also here. Note that these should ship to the US.

Update: Quickly sold out as expected.


Original: Amazon Germany has started taking pre-orders for the Metroid: Samus Returns Legacy Edition. You can try reserving a copy here. Based on what has taken place with other European retailers, it likely won’t be in stock for long.

Update: Now gone. Only lasted a few minutes.


Original: Amazon France is taking pre-orders for the Metroid: Samus Returns Legacy Edition. You can reserve it here.

Despite the page saying otherwise, Amazon France will ship to the US. However, unlike Switch, 3DS is region-locked. You’ll need a European system to actually play the game. Or perhaps you’re interested in the extras.

Best Buy has discounted four Switch games on its website. LEGO City Undercover and Just Dance 2017 are down to $40 while Puyo Puyo Tetris and The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ are $30 each. Amazon has price-matched these games aside from Just Dance 2017 here.

Amazon has a handful of 3DS games on sale. Titles like Mario Sports Superstars, Fire Emblem Echoes, and Dragon Quest VIII are $10 off.

You can get a look at the selection here. Note that some of the discounts require a Prime membership.

Amazon Germany has the Mario & Rabbids Kingdom Battle Collector’s Edition back up for pre-order again. You can place an order right here.

In the US, the Mario & Rabbids Kingdom Battle Collector’s Edition is a GameStop exclusive, but it sold out within the first hour of pre-orders going live. Thankfully, Amazon Germany will ship this to the US. Switch is also region-free, so you should be able to play the game without any issues.

The Skyward Sword Link amiibo is now available on Amazon. However, you’ll need to be a Prime member to place an order. You can do so right here.
