Nintendo advertises the sale as having discounts of "up to 50%" off, but we found even bigger markdowns peppered in there; shoppers can save anywhere from 15 to 75%. Read on for a rundown of the best deals from the Indie Sale, followed by a complete list of every single featured game.
Mashable's top picks from the Nintendo Indie Sale
Opens in a new window Credit: Supergiant Games 'Hades' $12.49 at My Nintendo Store $24.99 Save $12.50
Why we like it:
"As a roguelike action game, with its randomized room layouts, enemies, and power-up drops, forcing players to restart from the very beginning every time they die, [Hadesis] challenging," wrote former Mashable reporter Kellen Beck. "But while many of these kinds of games are frustrating, the story woven into this journey of Zagreus, the son of Hades, as he tries to escape the underworld is intoxicating." It was our 2020 game of the year, and it's getting a sequel in the near future — Steam players can sign up for a technical test — making now a great time to jump in. Plus, this appears to be its lowest price ever.

Opens in a new window Credit: ConcernedApe 'Stardew Valley' $9.99 at My Nintendo Store $14.99 Save $5
Why we like it:
You're definitely familiar with ConcernedApe's addictive farming sim if you're into cozy games. What you might not know is that it just got a massive PC update containing "a laundry list of new content," wrote Mashable's Amanda Yeo, including "pets in hats, big chests, and the opportunity to crit a baby." (You can also drink mayonnaise — now that's what I call gaming!) The Nintendo Switch version of the game hasn't gotten the patch just yet, but it shouldn't be too much longer.
Opens in a new window Credit: Massive Monster / Devolver Digital 'Cult of the Lamb' $14.99 at My Nintendo Store $24.99 Save $10.00
Why we like it:
"Cult of the Lambis an adorably macabre, eldritch-themed combination of roguelike and base building games," said Yeo. It got its own free content expansion in early 2024 called "Sins of the Flesh," which added a new weapon, new achievements, new traits, new buildings, and [checks patch notes] six new types of poop, among other improvements.
