Weekend Console Download Deals for Aug. 21: Nintendo Share the Fun Sale

Some of Nintendo's top first-party games are on sale this weekend, including the first major sale for Luigi's Mansion 3.

First thing to note is that the PlayStation Summer Sale has ended. So if you waited to pick up the best of the PS4, I'm sorry to say that it's too late. You'll have to wait until the holidays for another crack at the best of the first-party PlayStation library. But if you own a Nintendo Switch, then your time is now.

Nintendo first-party games don't go on sale very often. In fact, the Share the Fun sale marks the first time that Luigi's Mansion 3 has gone on sale. You can also pick up ARMS, 1-2-Switch, and a number of other big-time games. And that's on top of the big Indie World sale that puts the spotlight on many of the best indies in the world. You'll also want to check out a number of games that aren't part of these sales, including the best of the LEGO franchise, the best from Supergiant Games, the best from THQ Nordic, and so much more!

And lastly, the PlayStation 4 Summer Sale might be over, but the Xbox One Ultimate Game Sale is still going strong! So be sure to pick up the best from Xbox and the top third-party games while it's still going on.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
