Nintendo eShop Scraper — Games & Prices

Reliable Nintendo Switch eShop data — titles, live prices, discounts, genres, players and release dates — via Nintendo's own public store search backend. No proxies, no login, no fragile reverse-engineered keys. Few clean Nintendo scrapers exist; this one uses a stable public service.

Perfect for deal and price-tracking sites, game market research, and competitor pricing/release monitoring.

What you get

One row per game:

• Identity — nsuid, fsId, title, publisher, developer, productCode, excerpt
• Classification — genres, ageRating, playersFrom, playersTo, releaseDate
• Pricing — priceRegular, priceLowest, discountPercent, hasDiscount
• Availability — systems, digital, physical, eshopRemoved
• Media / link — image, url

Modes

• Search — pass searchTerms (keywords) and get matching games; cap per term with maxGamesPerSearch.
• NSUID lookup — pass nsuids to fetch specific titles directly.

Results are deduped by nsuid (falling back to fsId/title).

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
searchTerms	array	["zelda","mario kart"]	Keywords to search
nsuids	array	—	eShop ids to look up directly
system	string	switch	switch = modern eShop with live prices; all = incl. retro/legacy
language	string	en	Catalogue language code (en, de, fr, …)
maxGamesPerSearch	integer	20	Games returned per search term

Provide at least one of searchTerms or nsuids.

Example input

{ "searchTerms": ["zelda", "mario kart"], "maxGamesPerSearch": 20 }

Direct lookup:

{ "nsuids": ["70010000063715"] }

Why this actor

• Stable backend — uses searching.nintendo-europe.com, the same service that powers the official EU store search, so no anti-bot workarounds break it.
• Live prices & discounts — priceRegular, discountPercent, hasDiscount for deal tracking.
• Two modes — keyword search or direct nsuid lookup, deduped.
• Scarce category — few reliable Nintendo scrapers exist; Nintendo has no clean official API.

Notes

• Covers the pan-European catalogue (prices in EUR/GBP). US-region-only titles aren't indexed by this backend; nsuids are region-specific.
• For retro/legacy titles (system: all) price and nsuid may be absent.
• Public data; you are responsible for compliant use. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Nintendo.

Pricing

Pay per result — $5.00 per 1,000 results (one result = one game). No subscription or platform fees.
