Visits: 0


You've come to the right place for all the best value Nintendo Switch bundles available right now. We've searched the net to bring you all the cheapest offers in both the US and UK that come with top games and accessories. Just be aware that this year's Nintendo Switch Black Friday deals are almost here, so the savings could be even better in the weeks to come.

We've also gathered up the lowest prices for a Switch console by itself available right now if you don't like the look of any current bundles. You can also find all the week's best Nintendo Switch deals on games and accessories in case you want to buy any extras separately. Naturally, we're expecting more discounts on these in the Black Friday deals throughout this month.

The best Nintendo Switch bundles available now

The biggest or best value Nintendo Switch bundles are usually saved for big retail events, but there are often good options throughout the year. There are bundles that feature some of the best Nintendo Switch games, including the option to add recent Pokémon, Metroid or Monster Hunter titles for nothing – or at a fraction of the usual cost.

There's good news when it comes to the Nintendo Switch OLED stock situation, too. The upgraded console is generally available at all retailers right now so you shouldn't struggle to find one – and bundles have appeared too. We've included any of these on this page as well, including any Nintendo Switch OLED Black Friday deals.

And while there are some good offers today, keep in mind that we usually see excellent value limited-time Nintendo Switch bundles or deals on games and accessories during the end-of-year sales. Hold out if you can, as Nintendo has confirmed deals will land from November 20.

Today’s best Nintendo Switch console deals

The comparison chart below shows all the cheapest prices for a Nintendo Switch console by itself. Just make sure you don't pay any more than the US MSRP of $299 and the UK RRP of £259 – even if there's a stock shortage again. Sometimes it's better to get one this way and buy your games or accessories separately if there are any considerable deals.

We've also got a look at the best prices for the Nintendo Switch OLED today as well. Remember, the RRP for this is $349.99 in the US and £309.99 in the UK. It's still early days but there have already been small discounts of up to $30/£30 on this new version of the console.

Nintendo Switch (Neon) + Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + 3 Months Switch Online: $299.99 at Walmart
The listing for the Nintendo Switch Black Friday bundle is now up at Walmart, but it won’t be available to buy until November 21. Walmart Plus members also get early access from 12pm ET before the sale opens up to all at 7pm ET. It could sell out in that priority window.View Deal

Nintendo Switch | 128GB memory card: $334.98 $318.49 at Amazon
Save $16
– This isn’t a big saving, but you can shave around $16 off the price of a Nintendo Switch console and 128GB official Nintendo Switch memory card when you grab both in this bundle at Amazon. The Switch only comes with 32GB of internal storage and that will fill up quickly as your game library grows, so this is an inexpensive way to give you some extra capacity for more games.View Deal

Nintendo Switch | Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: $359.98 $348.94 at Amazon
Save $11
– This Nintendo Switch bundle has been as low as $299 in previous sales, so we’re not massively enthusiastic about it. Especially when the Black Friday bundle is better value and will be available later this month. However, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is one of the console’s most popular games, so for those who want to get it with a new console then this is the best price available today.View Deal

Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing Edition: $298.99 at Amazon
This Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing: New Horizons special edition console isn’t strictly a deal, sure, but it’s still worth sharing due to its limited availability. You get a Switch console and Joy-Con controllers with a pastel color design that will stand out in your home setup. One important note: a copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons is not included.View Deal

Nintendo Switch (Neon): $299 at Amazon
After months of difficulties, Nintendo Switch stock is much more stable in the US right now. While there are no big bundle deals, you can regularly pick up the console at Amazon at the normal price.View Deal

Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing Edition: $298.99 at Amazon Best Buy
The Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing Edition is now more regularly available in stores. This special edition console is not strictly a deal, sure, but as an item with limited availability, it’s always one worth sharing – especially if you love that pastel color palette on the dock and Joy-Con. One important note: a copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons is not included.View Deal

Nintendo Switch | Switch Online 12-Month Membership + Carry Case: £337.99 $299 at Walmart
Save $38.99
– This latest Nintendo Switch bundle deal is available exclusively at Walmart. It’s not the best we’ve seen as the Black Friday bundle included Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a 3-Month Switch Online Membership for the same price. Many would likely prefer an actual game and less time on Nintendo’s subscription service. Still, with the lack of stock elsewhere (and the fact you’re still saving almost $40) this is your best option before Christmas.View Deal

Nintendo Switch bundles (UK)

Nintendo Switch | Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope: £309.98 £289.98 at Argos
Save £20

Nintendo Switch OLED Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Edition: £319.99 at My Nintendo Store
The official Nintendo Store still has the Nintendo Switch OLED Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Edition available to buy following its release on November 4. The console has sold out at many other retailers so there may not be many more opportunities to get one before the end of the year if you like the limited edition design.View Deal

Nintendo Switch (Neon) + Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + 3 Months Switch Online: £259.99 at My Nintendo Store
This Nintendo Switch bundle is usually only available over Black Friday but it’s back in stock right now at the official Nintendo Store. When a console by itself would usually set you back £259.99, the addition of both Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a 3-month Switch Online membership shows just how unbeatable value for money this is, so we’d recommend grabbing it while you can.View Deal

Nintendo Switch | Pokémon Shining Pearl: £299.98 £259.99 at Argos

Save £27

Nintendo Switch | Nintendo Switch Sports: £299.99 £289 at Currys
Save £10
– Nintendo Switch Sports only a short while ago and you can still get it for half price when you buy a Switch console at Currys.

Nintendo Switch bundles: our buying advice

Nintendo Switch bundles: how to spot a good deal

Just because Nintendo Switch bundles are cheap might not mean they are good deals. Many retailers often include cheaper games with their Nintendo Switch bundles and still charge standard price. Games readily available for $20 – $30 can sneak their way into the premium-priced deals, lowering the overall value of the offering. 

In this case, it's worth picking up a Nintendo Switch bundle with a full $60 game and grabbing the cheaper title separately if you're desperate to play it. For this reason, it's always worth double checking the going price of the bundled game you're picking up against the overall cost to make sure you're getting a good deal. Nintendo Switch sales outside of busy shopping periods (Black Friday or the holidays) 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'll want to look for in order to get the best Nintendo Switch bundle deals. These are the games that have been developed and produced by Nintendo themselves, so that's the likes of Mario Kart, Mario Party, The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Pokémon and so on.

As these titles do not usually fall much below their usual price (even years after launch) your best option to get them for cheap is as part of a Nintendo Switch bundle. We've seen games effectively receive discounts of up to 50% when bought as part of a bundle.

When to shop for Nintendo Switch deals

The best Nintendo Switch deals are usually found around the holiday period. You'll find the year's biggest games tend to release between October and December, which gives bundles a higher value when these titles are included at a discount price. However, a new Nintendo Switch bundle generally pops up along with any big first-party release. We'll be looking out for any featuring Metroid Dread when that launches later this year to help you save some cash on your Switch.

Nintendo Switch Lite

The Nintendo Switch Lite was released at just $199.99/£199.99 in 2019. That's $100/£80 less than the original Switch console. If you want to play games on the TV as well, you should go for the standard Nintendo Switch instead as the Lite is only playable in handheld mode.

The Nintendo Switch Lite comes in multiple colour options. You can pick one up now in turquoise, gray, yellow or coral pink, as well as a special Pokemon Zacian & Zamazenta Edition. We have a larger hub dedicated to all the best Nintendo Switch Lite bundles if you want to check it out in more detail.

Nintendo Switch game deals

Looking for something to play? Some of the latest Nintendo Switch bundles might not offer the game you're looking to get into first. If not, use this price comparison chart below to find the cheapest Switch titles around or head to our larger guide to find even more cheap Nintendo Switch games. Remember, to play online multiplayer and get other benefits like free games, you'll want to pick up a Nintendo Switch Online subscription deal as well.

Joy-Con deals

If you're looking for more multiplayer options, you might want to check out the latest Joy-Con deals. These controllers come in $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 as well, so it's not worth holding out for a mega-bundle.

Or maybe you just fancy some different colors for your own use – the Neon Red / Blue Joy-Con pack offers opposing colors to the ones the console ships with, for example (left red and right blue). Check out the latest prices below, or shop the best cheap Joy-Con sales going right now.

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller deals

You won't actually need a Nintendo Switch Pro controller to play any games, so don't feel pressured in to buying one. The Nintendo Switch Pro controller is a more traditional-style pad and launched alongside the Nintendo Switch. 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 setting you back a bit more cash – so we wouldn't recommend waiting for them. Check out more Nintendo Switch Pro Controller deals in our dedicated guide. 

Do I need to buy extra controllers for multiplayer on Nintendo Switch?

Possibly not! Remember how the Joy-Con controller splits in two? Turn them sideways and you get two basic controllers, each with their own analogue 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 being used this way for local multiplayer in both docked and tablet modes. So you get multiplayer functionality straight out of the box with no additional purchase required.

However, if you want to play four-player games, then you're going to need to invest in an extra pair of Joy-Con controllers or some Pro controllers. We'd buy the Joy-Cons as a pair (see our comparison chart above) as you'll save a bit of cash over buying them separately. Better yet, if your friends own a Switch, ask them to bring their controllers to the party!

Nintendo Switch bundles rarely offer extra controllers at 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. 

Nintendo Switch MicroSD card deals

With only 32GB of internal storage, you'll be wanting to pick up a cheap memory card or two for your new Nintendo Switch for any digital purchases or the inevitable game-fixing patches. Don't fret though, they're actually surprisingly cheap, with even 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, as MicroSDHC (up to 32GB) or MicroSDXC (up to a huge 2TB soon). Nintendo also has their own branded cards, but you'll be paying more just for a label. So for now, we'd take a look at this range of cheap MicroSDXC Nintendo Switch-friendly cards.
