About NTPrices
NTPrices is a free, independent Switch eShop price tracker. We record the complete price history of every Switch and Switch 2 game across 50+ regional storefronts, so when you see a discount you can instantly tell whether it is a genuine all-time low or just an ordinary sale worth skipping. We also surface the cheapest region in the world to buy each game.
The site has been tracking eShop prices since 2020 and is run by a small independent team — we are an unofficial, independent price tracker.
How We Track Prices — Our Methodology
Our goal is simple: tell you the truth about a price. A “50% off” banner means nothing without history — so we keep the history.
- Continuous checks. We re-query the eShop across 50+ regions throughout the day, prioritising popular titles, games currently on sale, and games people are actively viewing.
- Full history, not snapshots. Every time a price changes we record it. That complete record is what lets us flag a true all-time low instead of an average discount.
- Every region, local currency. Prices are shown in each store’s own currency, and we compute the cheapest region worldwide for each game so you can buy it for the lowest legitimate price.
- Visible freshness. Every game page shows a “Price last checked” timestamp, so you always know how current the figure is.

Current price, list price, discount depth and the complete price history of every Switch & Switch 2 game, across 50+ eShop regions.
All-time lows

Independence & Trademarks
