Nintendo is shaking things up this holiday season with some incredible discounts on their Switch consoles just in time for Black Friday. For a limited period, you can snag both the standard Switch and the Switch OLED models at $75 off their usual price, bringing them down to $224.99 and $274.99, respectively. These deals come bundled with $79 worth of extras including Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a three-month subscription to Nintendo Switch Online. That means you’ll have access to online multiplayer, cloud saves, a library of retro games, and even the Nintendo Music app on your mobile device.
Historically, neither console has seen such a significant price drop since their launches. Prior discounts were generally from retailers with limited stock or required memberships, like Costco. Instead of cutting prices, Nintendo often bundled games or online service trials with the console. But now, you get direct savings while still enjoying those extras. Whether these deals will extend past Cyber Monday is up in the air, but don’t be shocked if prices dip again as we get closer to the anticipated launch of the Switch 2 in early 2025.
But that’s not all—Nintendo’s rolling out fantastic deals on accessories and games, too. You can grab $20 off their fantastic Switch Pro wireless controller, or save the same amount on Joy-Con controller pairs. Some of the Switch’s most essential games are also hitting new low prices. Honestly, the deals are too plentiful to cover in one go, so be sure to check our comprehensive list of the best early Black Friday gaming deals. We’ll keep it up-to-date as we approach the big day on November 29.
