Taxes for me is $46.25 .. it might be worth buying $600 GCs instead of $500.
Logic:
$500 GC but then you pay $46.25 in cash.

Alternate:
$600 GC then you have leftover balance of $53.75

Difference:
You paid $80 in cash instead of $46.25 but that extra $33.75 got you $53.75 in balance.

That may be great deal for a lot of people.

Here's a couple of "hacks" to save some additional money when using Nintendo GCs for eShop games.

1. While in the eShop, click on your profile settings and change your billing zip code to a state with no sales tax. I just use a random zip code from Montana. Nintendo only goes off of that zip code when you use your available eShop balance to purchase games.

2. Nintendo game vouchers can still be purchased until the end of January and can be used on some new releases like Metroid Prime 4 and Pokemon Legends Z-A.

For example, the Switch 2 version of Metroid Prime 4 is normally $69.99. However, by using this Costco GC deal, you could get a two-pack of game vouchers on the eShop for basically $80. You can redeem one of those vouchers for the Switch 1 version of Metroid Prime, meaning you're getting the base game for $40. Then you can buy the upgrade pack separately for $9.99. So you'd have the Switch 2 version of Metroid Prime for $49.99, a savings of $20.

You can also use vouchers in a similar manner for good savings on older titles with Switch 2 versions. For example, the Switch 2 version of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is normally $79.99. However, using this Costco GC deal, you can use a a voucher to get the base version of the game for $40, and then buy the the upgrade pack separately for $9.99, for a total of $49.99 and a $30 savings.

Alright to wrap this up, I ordered around 9:00, didn't receive codes. Started Costco chat at around 12:30. They said my order was held up because the account name and billing information didn't match, so make sure it does when you order. I was 30th in line on chat, was about 20 minutes from start to end. They told me they were released the order and would receive in 15 minutes. Received, able to load all $600 worth of codes onto the Nintendo account. Put Switch 2 into cart, proceeded through checkout and clicked "Apply Funds" at the end. Order was $0 and processed. $70 left over, might be different based on taxes, based in US.

Thanks for this. Helpful for the skeptics out there. Also, this is a solid deal to get other switch and switch 2 hardware too. Joycons, pro controller, etc.

My experience - I purchased the gift cards from Costco.com and had email confirmations for purchase AND the links to redeem almost instantly. Loaded into Nintendo account ASAP and made the Switch 2 console purchase pretty easily. I will say, Nintendo.com had a few page loading issues for a bit. No issues at checkout though.
Sidenote: went back to Costco.com to purchase another set of $25/4 count cards ($100 value) to apply towards another set of controllers but Costco cancelled that order because "Quantity limits on item exceeded". Which is weird because I only previously ordered one set? Will try to purchase those gift cards again tomorrow.

I successfully bought the cards from the Costco Website and redeemed them. Switch 2 should be here in a week or two.

You can order physical 1st party games from Nintendo as well. I checked a handful of games in the store and they all had physical purchase options including Metroid Prime 4 Switch 2 pre-order.

$75 with tax for me MP4 Switch 2 which at 20% off was actually $60 after tax and before the 5% back from Costco Executive membership/credit card.

Not sure if they will deliver on release date but ...

Good price for day 1 games....albeit Costco has a 10% discount on MP4 as it is ...which at 7% tax, would only be just over $7 more.
