Target is offering some excellent deals as part of its Circle Week promotion, and for anyone with a Nintendo Switch console, this will be a great time to stock up on some games ahead of Prime Day Round 2. Nintendo first-party games aren't subject to as many discounts as other titles, but at Target, you can choose from a selection of games that have been substantially reduced in price.
A noteworthy example here is Kirby and the Forgotten Land, which is available for $40 during the sales event. This is the lowest price ever for the Kirby game, which is an adorable and exciting platformer that makes good use of a weird gameplay mechanic.
