Nintendo is making waves this Black Friday season by offering substantial discounts on their Switch consoles. For a limited time, you can snag the regular Switch for just $224.99 and the fancier OLED version for $274.99, both slashed by $75. This deal also includes a seasonal bundle valued at $79, featuring Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a three-month subscription to Nintendo Switch Online. With this service, you get online multiplayer, cloud saves, access to classic games, plus the Nintendo Music mobile app – pretty sweet deal, right?
It’s worth noting that substantial discounts like this are a rarity for these consoles. Since their respective launches, we’ve mainly seen retailer-specific promotions that vanish almost as soon as they start or require a Costco membership. Nintendo has previously avoided outright price cuts, preferring to enhance the value of their bundles with games or online service trials. But now, these price reductions come without sacrificing those extras. Whether these deals will continue past Cyber Monday is unclear, but don’t be shocked if prices continue to dip as we approach the anticipated release of the Switch 2 in early 2025.
Beyond the consoles, Nintendo is rolling out impressive discounts on gaming accessories and games. You can grab $20 off the robust Switch Pro wireless controller and Joy-Con pairs. Additionally, some of the Switch’s must-have games are hitting their lowest prices yet. There’s an abundance of fantastic offers, so be sure to check out our comprehensive list of the best Black Friday gaming deals as we keep it updated leading up to November 29.
