Everyone wants to lose themselves in virtual reality, right? The problem is that many virtual reality headsets are very expensive and not particularly accessible for family players. The Nintendo Labo VR Goggles and Blaster that make up the VR Starter Set is different. You simply assemble it yourself from the cardboard cut-out parts before diving into some immersive VR games. The set offers up its own selection of VR mini-games plus you can use it to try out other games that offer virtual reality support such as TheLegendofZelda:Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey. Whatever you choose, it offers a ton of fun whether you’re blasting your way through an alien invasion or exploring a strange new world. Kids will love putting together the unit and the whole family will have a great time with the results.

Ordinarily priced at $40, Best Buy has the VR Starter Kit at half price for only $20.

This is my must-buy Nintendo Switch game for Black Friday 2024
A red Pikmin looks around in Pikmin 4.

If there's one Switch game I can't recommend enough, it's Pikmin 4. The series expertly walks the tightrope between being a cute, whimsical adventure and a strategy game that needs serious planning to complete, exciting casual Switch players looking to hang out with some oddball little plant friends while keeping the attention of serious speedrunners and strategists. Whether you're seriously invested in saving the lives of the crashed spacecraft crew (more on that later) or you want to see how many little colorful buddies you can pluck out of the ground, Pikmin 4 is quite an adventure and one of the best games on Switch.

If you’re new to the Pikmin series, Pikmin 4 is an excellent place to start. It preserves the charm of its predecessors while refining the occasionally tricky control scheme and adjusting the story to be more accessible for newcomers. First-party title sales in the Nintendo Switch ecosystem are fairly rare — it’s not uncommon for them to remain at launch-day prices for years — so the Black Friday discount for this title is a blessing. You can  (a whopping 50% discount).
