GameStop was accidentally selling Animal Crossing: New Horizons and other first-party Switch titles for 50% off

Whoops!

GameStop's website had a major hiccup earlier today, and it lead to some insane deals on first party Switch games.

We're not quite sure what the cause was, but GameStop's website was selling major first party Switch games for 50% off. Animal Crossing: New Horizons was included in the mix, as were Luigi's Mansion 3, Smash Bros. Ultimate, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and many others. This was obviously a mistake that GameStop scrambled to fix.

The first attempt at a fix ended up bringing GameStop's site offline. Even worse, when the site came back, the deals were still being offered! The site went down a second time, and when it came back everything was set straight again.

Now the real question is, will GameStop honor those 50% off sales? Those who managed to snag the insane offer are keeping a close watch on their inbox to find out.
