If you’re looking for the best value Nintendo Switch bundles available, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve found the cheapest deals in both the US and UK with top games and accessories.
As we’re currently between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, we’re seeing some excellent savings on Nintendo consoles. You can find the latest Black Friday gaming deals on our live blog, but if you’re only interested in Nintendo Switch bundles, either the OG Switch, the Nintendo Switch Lite or the Nintendo Switch OLED, read on.
If you’re not interested in any of the current bundles, we’ve also rounded up the lowest prices for a Switch console currently available. You can also find all the best Nintendo Switch deals of the week on games and accessories in case you want to buy extras separately. We’ll also keep an eye out for early Cyber Monday deals.
We’ve seen some brilliant Nintendo Switch bundles this Black Friday and expect even more to arrive for Cyber Monday. Some bundles include the best Nintendo Switch games, including the option to add Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, Metroid Dread or Splatoon 3 titles for free – or for a fraction of the usual cost.
We haven’t seen any shortages when it comes to the Nintendo Switch OLED stock situation either. The same can’t be said for Nintendo’s competitors, the PS5’s stock is quickly running out. In fact, there are so many available that we’ve set up a Nintendo Switch OLED Black Friday deals page to track them specifically.
Today’s best Nintendo Switch console deals
The comparison chart below shows all of the cheapest prices for a Nintendo Switch console on its own. Make sure you don’t pay more than the US RRP of $299 and the UK RRP of £259 – even if there’s another stock shortage. Sometimes it’s better to get one this way and buy your games or accessories separately when there are significant deals.
We’ve also looked at the best prices for the Nintendo Switch OLED today. Remember, the MSRP for this is $349.99 in the US and £309.99 in the UK. It’s still early days, but there are already small discounts of up to $30 / £30 on this new version of the console.

Nintendo Switch bundles: our buying advice
Nintendo Switch bundles: this is how you recognize a good deal
Just because Nintendo Switch bundles are cheap doesn’t mean they’re good deals. Many retailers often add cheaper games to their Nintendo Switch bundles and still charge the standard price. Games that are readily available for $20-$30 can find their way into the premium-priced deals, reducing the overall value of what’s on offer.
In this case, it’s worth buying a $60 Nintendo Switch full game bundle and grabbing the cheaper title separately if you’re desperate to play it. For this reason, it’s always worth comparing the going price of the bundled game you’re picking up with its total cost to make sure you’re getting a good deal. Nintendo Switch sales outside of peak shopping periods (Black Friday or the holiday season) are more likely to try this tactic.
The best games in a Nintendo Switch bundle
As mentioned above, first-party releases are the games you want to look for to get the best Nintendo Switch bundle deals. These games are developed and produced by Nintendo itself, so they are Mario Kart, Mario Party, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Metroid, Pokémon and so on.
Since these titles don’t usually drop much below their usual price (even years after launch), the best option is to get them for cheap as part of a Nintendo Switch bundle. We’ve seen games effectively get discounts of up to 50% when bought as part of a bundle.
When to buy Nintendo Switch deals?
You can usually find the best Nintendo Switch deals around the holidays. You’ll find that the biggest games of the year usually release between October and December, giving bundles a higher value if these titles come with a discount. However, a new Nintendo Switch bundle usually appears along with a major first-party release. We’ll be looking forward to all of them featuring Pokémon Scarlet and Violet now that it’s launched.
Nintendo Switch Lite
The Nintendo Switch Lite was released for just $199.99 / £199.99 in 2019. That’s $100 / £80 less than the original Switch console. If you also want to play games on the TV, you should go for the standard Nintendo Switch instead, as the Lite is only playable in handheld mode.
The Nintendo Switch Lite is available in multiple colors. You can buy one right now in turquoise, grey, yellow or coral pink, as well as a special Pokemon Zacian & Zamazenta edition. We’ve dedicated a larger hub to the best Nintendo Switch Lite bundles if you want to check them out in more detail.
Nintendo Switch Game Deals
Looking for something to play? Some of the latest Nintendo Switch bundles may not include the game you want to play first. If not, use this price comparison chart below to find the cheapest Switch titles around, or head over to our larger guide to find even more cheap Nintendo Switch games. Don’t forget that in order to play online multiplayer and get other benefits like free games, you’ll also want to purchase a Nintendo Switch Online subscription.
Joy-Con Offers
If you’re looking for more multiplayer options, you might want to check out the latest Joy-Con deals. These controllers are $10 more expensive than the Pro Controller (more on that below), but you do get two separate controllers to expand your options. Nintendo Switch deals rarely include these controllers in their bundles too, so it’s not worth looking out for a mega bundle.
Or maybe you just fancy some different colors for your own use – the Neon Red/Blue Joy-Con pack, for example, offers opposite colors to the ones the console comes with (left red and right blue). Check out the latest prices below or shop the best cheap Joy-Con sale going on right now.
Deals on Nintendo Switch Pro controllers
You don’t actually need a Nintendo Switch Pro controller to play all games, so don’t feel pressured to buy one. The Nintendo Switch Pro controller is a more traditional pad and launches alongside the Nintendo Switch. The prices aren’t cheap though, starting around $69.99/£64.99. Nintendo Switch bundles have offered the Pro Controller in the past, but these are rare – and often higher value bundles will cost you a bit more money – so we don’t recommend waiting for it. See more Nintendo Switch Pro Controller deals in our dedicated guide.
Possibly not! Remember how the Joy-Con controller splits in two? Flip them sideways and you get two basic controllers, each with its own analog stick and face buttons – the d-pad acts as face functions on the left controller. We’ve seen 2K’s NBA series, Snipper Clips, FIFA 19, and Mario Kart used this way for local multiplayer in both docked and tablet modes. So you get multiplayer functionality right out of the box without having to purchase anything.
However, if you want to play four-player games, you’ll need to invest in an extra pair of Joy-Con controllers or a pair of Pro controllers. We’d buy the Joy-Con as a pair (see our comparison chart above) as you’ll save some money by buying them individually. Better yet, if your friends have a Switch, ask them to bring their controllers to the party!
Nintendo Switch bundles rarely offer additional controllers for the standard price, as these are particularly pricey gamepads. However, retailers sometimes include a Pro Controller in their Nintendo Switch sales with a slightly higher price tag.
Deals on Nintendo Switch MicroSD cards
With only 32GB of internal storage, you’ll want to buy a cheap memory card or two for your new Nintendo Switch for digital purchases or the inevitable game-fixing patches. But don’t worry, they’re actually surprisingly cheap, with even the 64GB ones coming in at under £20/$25.
What memory cards does the Nintendo Switch need? Those will be Micro SD cards, also known as, depending on their size, MicroSDHC (up to 32 GB) or MicroSDXC (soon up to a whopping 2 TB). Nintendo also has its own brand cards, but you only pay more for a label. So for now we’re looking at this range of cheap MicroSDXC Nintendo Switch friendly cards.
