This weird real-life exploit is discounting Switch game prices and causing... bananas to sell out?
EventHubs • • technology
Key Points:
- Gamers have discovered a strange hack that applies a $20 discount on Switch 2 games by purchasing a single banana online, causing bananas to sell out in some Wal-Mart stores.
- The promotion allows users to buy games like Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave for about $60 instead of the usual $79.99 for physical copies by ordering the game along with a banana.
- An even more unusual exploit involves adding a banana to the cart and then removing it, with the $20 discount still applying despite the banana not being purchased.
- This discount method has not yet been confirmed for other popular Switch 2 titles like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate or Street Fighter 6, but gamers are hopeful it may work.
- Retailers are likely to fix this loophole soon, as it is an unintended exploit causing unusual demand for bananas.
