The Nintendo Switch is a popular console, and for good reason. The ability to seamlessly flip between an on-the-go handheld mode to a traditional, TV-connected unit means you don’t have to keep track of multiple consoles and game libraries when you want to keep yourself entertained wherever you go. And with the OLED version, you’ll get better contrast, color, and detailing in handheld mode so you can better appreciate your favorite games while out and about.
Also: The best Prime Day deals right now
While it’s well-known that Nintendo isn’t keen on offering discounts on its consoles and games, it’s possible to find great deals if you’re willing to be patient and do a little digging. To help you out, I’ve put together a list of the very best Nintendo Switch deals I could find at Amazon for its Prime Big Deal Days sale (also known as October Prime Day), as well as deals at other retailers like Best Buy and Walmart to help you find the best discounts as well as the right games for your library.

FAQs
When is Amazon Prime Big Deal Day 2024?
Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, also known as Prime Day 2 or October Prime Day, will run from October 8 through the 9th. Though some brands and competing retailers may offer discounts and coupons ahead of the official sale, so keep an eye on your wishlist!
Are Nintendo consoles and games really cheaper on Prime Day?
While you may have to wait for the holiday shopping season to see any discounts on Switch consoles, it’s possible to find sales on accessories like extra controllers as well as on Switch games. Game prices and discounts may differ between physical and digital versions, so be sure to double-check to make sure you’re getting the best deal.
How did we choose these Prime Day deals?
Since Nintendo deals, coupons, and sales are so rare, I’ve made sure to include every discounted console, accessory, and game available. I chose accessories that are either made and sold directly by Nintendo or are officially licensed to work with the Switch/Switch OLED. I also chose games that had received positive critical and player reviews to help both new and experienced gamers find quality titles to add to their library.
