Unbeatable Black Friday Deals on Nintendo Switch Consoles

Nintendo is gearing up for Black Friday with some eye-catching deals on their Switch consoles, marking the first time these devices have seen significant discounts. For a limited period, you can snag the standard Switch model for $224.99 and the Switch OLED for $274.99, both offering a $75 markdown. What makes this deal even sweeter is the inclusion of $79 worth of extras in the holiday bundle. This package throws in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a three-month subscription to Nintendo Switch Online, letting you enjoy online play, cloud storage, access to classic games, and even the Nintendo Music mobile app.

Previously, once a Switch console launched, substantial discounts were rare unless you found a time-limited store promotion or had a subscription to a place like Costco. Nintendo’s usual strategy has been to enhance the value with bundled games or trials to their online services, instead of slashing prices. But now, gamers are getting both price reductions and those delightful bundled bonuses. It’s uncertain if these deals will stick around after Cyber Monday, especially with the anticipated reveal of the Switch 2 slated for early 2025.

But it doesn’t stop there. Nintendo is rolling out other deals to cheer about, such as $20 off the highly praised Switch Pro wireless controller, and similar savings on Joy-Con controller pairs. Plus, there’s a slew of discounts on essential Switch games. There’s a treasure trove of deals out there, too many to cover here, so be sure to check out our comprehensive list of top early Black Friday gaming deals. We’ll keep updating that list right up until Black Friday on November 29, so you’ll have plenty of opportunities to find the perfect bargain.
