Fans Are Reportedly Getting $20 Off Ocarina of Time Preorders With a Hidden Coupon at Walmart

Walmart shoppers are supposedly using a hidden promo code to knock $20 off The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time preorders, bringing it down from $70 to $50, but it might not work for everyone.

Fans Are Reportedly Getting $20 Off Ocarina of Time Preorders With a Hidden Coupon at Walmart

Fans may be able to save up to $20 on their preorder of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake for Nintendo Switch 2, thanks to a hidden coupon at Walmart. The game is currently $10 off at Walmart and Amazon, but now shoppers are reportedly getting an additional $10 off by using the promo code SAVE3X at Walmart. A Senior Commerce Editor, Chris Reed, successfully applied the code and lowered his total to $49.88.

However, another employee, Seth Macy, did not have success with the code. This appears to be a "YMMV" situation, as some shoppers have had varying results with the coupon. The promotion seems to require selecting "delivery" or "pickup" at checkout, and Walmart is reportedly offering the code only to first-time online customers. However, even with the coupon, customers can still expect to pay less than the standard retail price for the game, which is $59.99 for digital copies and $69.99 for physical copies.

The physical copy of Ocarina of Time comes on cartridge, with no game key card necessary. The game is set to launch on November 5, 2026, and preorders have been extremely popular.
