With the impending second lockdown heading to the UK this week, and indeed for everyone staying inside and doing their bit at the moment, there's never really been a better time to try out classic games that we missed the first time around.
As such, we thought it worth reminding you that My Nintendo is currently hosting a number of discounts on fantastic 3DS titles in Europe – all of which will remain valid until the end of the year. By spending some of your Gold or Platinum Points, you can enjoy the following discounts and try out any top games that you might have missed:
- [3DS] 40% off Super Mario 3D Land: 80 Gold Points
- [3DS] 40% off The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D: 80 Gold Points
- [3DS] 40% off Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo: 80 Gold Points
- [3DS] 50% off Super Mario Land (Virtual Console GB): 50 Platinum Points
- [3DS] 50% off The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX (Virtual Console GBC): 30 Gold Points
- [3DS] 40% off Kirby’s Blowout Blast: 70 Platinum Points
- [3DS] 50% off Tomodachi Life: 200 Gold Points
- [3DS] 30% off Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon: 120 Gold Points
- [3DS] 50% off Wario Land II (Virtual Console GBC): 25 Gold Points
- [3DS] 40% off Tank Troopers: 80 Platinum Points
You can activate the discounts over on the My Nintendo website.
Nintendo is also offering up some of the most popular 3DS themes. You can get any of the themes below at no extra charge by spending 100 of your Platinum Points.
Will you be grabbing any of these offers? Remember, your Gold Points can also be spent on Switch software directly from the eShop or a Nintendo Switch Online subscription, too.

I've already got all the top games of these and sadly I don't really play my 3DS much anymore so if this happens with past Switch games I'll jump on it
@FroZtedFlakerZz same here. the 3ds has been dead for so long that ive had every main blockbuster game i would want to play already
Seems like they stopped adding Wii U games.
Ah, Nintendo, offering loyal fans discounts on things loyal fans bought years ago. How generous!
Need a good discount on Maj’s Mask please! It’s £40 compared to Ocarina and Land which were already £20 and now reduced further
@Krambo42 They definitely did and they just recently announced the end of the 3DS which makes me sad but oh well, if they carry over some 3DS games to switch I think that'd be pretty cool
Let me just put in a word for Blowout Blast: it’s such a great game. If you missed it, totally get it!
I have all of those bar Tank Troopers. I'm ok. All good.
3DS?... Are there any discounts on Super Nintendo cartridges too?
Great games. If you didn’t get these a decade ago then now is the time or wait for a full price switch port 😉
Honestly I find it hard to go back to the 3DS after getting Switch. A great handheld in it's prime though.
At these point they should just offer these games for "free" in exchange for the points (maybe increase the points needed), I mean who would buy SM3DL for 40% off, this game is 9 years old therefore everyone who is slightly interested in this game already bought it. Also it's probably cheaper buying it used
@ryancraddock If ever a title needed 3DS in it, it was this title. It's ALL 3DS games. That's the entire list, 3DS games. 😝
@mariomaster96 Well, not necessarily saying my situation is a common one, but I sold my 3DS and my games when Switch was announced, picked up a cheap 2DS a couple years later for various reasons, and started to build a digital library. Personally, I appreciate these discounts. Though sure, free would be cool too, ha.
anyone play tank troopers? didn't finish it
These deals have been a thing for over three months now, with no new software deals having been made ever since. This has lead me to believe that My Nintendo is really on its last legs, since the platinum points are next to worthless and Gold Points have a defined function on Switch eShop.
They really dropped the ball, but at this point I'm expecting to see it shut down very soon.
Tbh - this promotion is not worth mentioning - much less writing an article about it
The same discounts for the past three years. I suppose they are consistent.
Meanwhile there’s Playstation Plus and Game Pass.
Nintendo, come on......
I lost my 3ds instruction booklet, so would never remember how to operate it. So the games are of no use.
Nintendolife clickbait again making it look like these could be for Switch games but then it's just 3DS games (who cares about those?!).
Great. Discounts on games people already bought on a dead system. Typical Nintendo.
And those themes is same old ones. Nothing new.
10 year old things is brand new for Nintendo as we already know.
The same 3DS games in the reward program for several months, there are no new discounts. If they are going to close the doors for the platform, they could offer real big deals for the last months. I have almost 1300 platinum points and practically there is nothing to spend for.
