Best Nintendo Switch deals: consoles, games, and accessories

By

There is a lot of competition in the handheld market right now, and it seems like there’s a new handheld coming out nearly every other month. Even so, the Nintendo Switch is still easily one of the best handheld consoles on the market, and with three options to pick from: the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, or Nintendo Switch OLED, everybody has something to enjoy. Of course, the Nintendo Switch, its games, and its various accessories can be expensive, which is why we’ve collected some of our favorite deals below, even though there aren’t a ton of great deals on the Nintendo Switch itself.

We’ve also collected some great Nintendo Switch video game deals and accessories deals, so be sure to check out those, too. Or, if you’d rather one of the more traditional consoles, check out these game console deals instead.

Also, this is one of the OLED versions, so you’re going to get an excellent viewing experience.

Nintendo Switch OLED has a $66 discount, but there’s a catch
Nintendo Switch OLED running the new Zelda game.

Gamers know that Nintendo Switch deals almost always get sold out quickly, so you should be quick in taking advantage of Walmart's offer for the Nintendo Switch OLED. From its sticker price of $350, it's available for only $284 for savings of $66, which is enough to get you a Nintendo Switch game. There's a catch though -- the version that's on sale is imported from Japan, but that won't be a problem for you to enjoy the hybrid console. Proceed with the transaction right away, as you may miss out on the bargain if you hesitate.

Why you should buy the Nintendo Switch OLED
The Nintendo Switch OLED is an upgraded version of the Nintendo Switch that features a 7-inch OLED touchscreen that's bigger and brighter with more vivid colors, so that you can better enjoy the best Nintendo Switch games. Other changes that are highlighted by our Nintendo Switch OLED versus Nintendo Switch comparison include double the internal storage of 64GB -- though you can expand the console's capacity through a microSD card -- a built-in LAN port in the dock for a more convenient way of connecting an Ethernet cable for a more stable internet connection, and a wider kickstand that covers the entire backside of the console that's sturdier and allows for multiple degrees of positioning.
