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.

About 6 hours now. Still in limbo. Anyone else?
look like my one hour waiting isn't that bad after reading the last comment. May be we should boost this long waiting time info to the front page. I am kind of worrying how to spend the $500 GC if I can't use it to buy the switch 2 at the end (for whatever reason... )

Been waiting for the gift cards for 2.5 hours. Chatted with a Costco rep and was told to wait 24 hours. I will try chatting again in a little bit.

Buy it now! Might go out of stock
Nintendo won't go out of stock. They OVERPILED these on purpose to eliminate people snatching them up for ebay and other scalping. As much as I may not like a lot of Nintendo's moves, they did a good job on getting so many machines out there and preventing all the scalping that happened during the pandemic.

$70 games is why I'm sitting out switch 2 until I can get it for $250 ish
The 20% off gift cards also let you buy 1st party physical games from Nintendo for 20% off.

7% tax rate means $56 before tax games day one. At least until you run out of 20% off credit. Wink

Took 2 hours but the gift cards arrived in my inbox without having to chat with anyone. Placed order on Nintendo website no issues. Merry Christmas!

Costco Confirmed. They have a bundle of (4) $50 cards, or (4) $23 cards. You are limited to 10 cards on one transaction. It took about 3 hours to get the email from Costco with the codes after I placed the order. I was able to add funds (less work than the Sams club cards) to the Nintendo account and purchase a Switch 2 console. Thanks for the post.

If anyone is having trouble with errors when adding to cart or getting redirected to the Costco homepage, try turning off your VPN if you have one on. Turned out this was my issue and I could purchase the gift cards without issue after that.

For those, like me, waiting for the codes from Costco, any advice on getting it unstuck? Is it just a matter of waiting?
Took my order 3 hours. US based Costco account.

It's been about 3 hours for me... Haven't had any luck with this. Sams Club cancelled, Costco isn't delivering. Odd.

It was a solid 3 hours for my Costco order to "Ship". There should be a link in the initial confirmation email that says "Digital Order Portal", once I got the "Shipped" email, it said I would get another email with the code details. I didn't wait, I just used that the Digital Order Portal link and was able to put in my order number and email to get to the codes. Added the cards to my Nintendo account right away.

You can get uber gift cards 20% off from Costco, and order the Nintendo switch on Uber Eats from Best Buy. Also the Uber Eats has $25 off $75 YMMV.
