Nintendo Switch Consoles Hit All-Time Low Prices for Black Friday

Nintendo is making waves just in time for Black Friday with some significant discounts on their Switch consoles. Normally known for holding their prices firm, this time they’re offering the regular Switch and the Switch OLED at $75 off. For a short period, you can grab the regular model at $224.99 and the OLED version at $274.99. These deals come with a bundle that’s perfect for any gamer, featuring $79 worth of extras such as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, three months of Nintendo Switch Online for online play, cloud saves, retro games, and access to the Nintendo Music mobile app.

It’s pretty rare to see such a markdown on either console since they launched. Usually, if there were any deals, they were tied to specific retailers and often vanished quickly. Sometimes, they required a Costco membership or something similar. Instead of reducing prices, Nintendo has typically packed value into bundles with games or online service trials. But now, you can enjoy the price drop along with those goodies. Whether these prices will stick around beyond Cyber Monday is uncertain, but with the anticipated arrival of the Switch 2 in early 2025, further discounts could be on the horizon.

In addition to the consoles, Nintendo is offering irresistible deals on accessories and games. For instance, there’s a $20 discount on the excellent, durable Switch Pro wireless controller and on pairs of Joy-Con controllers. Plus, several must-have Switch games are now at their lowest prices ever. With so many deals out there, we can’t list them all here, but you can find them in our curated roundup of the best early Black Friday gaming deals. We’ll keep updating it regularly up to Black Friday on November 29.
