Christmas is a big time of the year for Nintendo Switch deals as many are looking for a cheap bundle for themselves or as the perfect gift for a loved one. Whatever your needs, we've got all the best Nintendo Switch deals right here, as well as the best bundle offers on both the standard console and the new Nintendo Switch OLED. We had high expectations of the Nintendo Switch deals that were coming on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. For the most part, they didn't disappoint. Things in the US were fairly stable as a familiar Nintendo Switch bundle was made available for another year. Meanwhile, in the UK, the recent permanent price cut to the Switch console pushed prices down even further to as low as £239. Now that those big sales events have passed, we're back to a fairly quiet offering when it comes to Nintendo Switch bundle deals. The console is completely out of stock in the US, but a new bundle has just launched at Walmart. There are still some discounts to be found, but not to the same level we saw last month. The UK is actually doing a whole lot better. First of all, Nintendo Switch OLED stock is still readily available as we head into Christmas. You can find the new version of the console at Amazon, Very and the My Nintendo Store right now, with a few bundle deals up for grabs as well. Standard Switch console bundles are less exciting, but you can get a console by itself for just £239.99 at ShopTo (was £259.99). 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. So, we won't waste any more of your time: here are all the best Nintendo Switch deals available right now. Keep your eyes peeled throughout the weeks ahead in the Christmas sales and Boxing Day sales for the possibility of even bigger discounts on games and accessories later this year. The comparison chart below will bring you the best Nintendo Switch deals on the console by itself. As stock fluctuates, however, we have seen prices rise and fall with demand. Don't pay any more than the US MSRP of $299 and the UK RRP of £259, then, because as dire as stock may seem those costs do ultimately drop back down again with a new wave of inventory. Scroll down a little further for all the Nintendo Switch bundles on offer. If you're after a cheaper alternative, the Nintendo Switch Lite can be found for around $199 (£199). This handheld only console doesn't dock, however, and doesn't feature detachable Joy-Con. We're rounding up all the best Nintendo Switch Lite bundles if you want to check it out in more detail. Nintendo Switch | Switch Online 12-Month Membership + Carry Case: Nintendo Switch (Gray): $299 at Best Buy Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing Edition: $299.99 at Best Buy Nintendo Switch | 128GB memory card: Nintendo Switch (Neon): Nintendo Switch (Neon) + Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + 3 Months Switch Online: Nintendo Switch | Animal Crossing New Horizons: Nintendo Switch + Pikmin 3 Deluxe: £269.99 at Game Nintendo Switch | The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword HD: £289.99 at Game Nintendo Switch (Neon) | Ring Fit Adventure: Nintendo Switch OLED (Neon): £309 at Amazon Nintendo Switch OLED: from £309 at My Nintendo Store Nintendo Switch OLED (Neon) | Just Dance 2022: Nintendo Switch OLED (White) | Animal Crossing New Horizons: £349.98 at Very Nintendo Switch OLED (White) | Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: £349.98 at Very Nintendo Switch OLED (White) | Metroid Dread: Nintendo Switch OLED (White) | Super Mario 3D World & Mario Kart 8: £389.97 at Very Nintendo Switch OLED | Pokémon: Shining Pearl & Pokémon: Brilliant Diamond: £399.97 at Very 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. 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 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. 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. 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. Looking for something to play? Some of the latest Nintendo Switch deals and bundles might not be offering the game you're looking to get into first. If not, use this price comparison chart below to find the cheapest Switch titles around. 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. 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. 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. 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.The latest cheap Nintendo Switch deals
Nintendo Switch bundles (USA)
£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.
Nintendo Switch stock has been relatively stable in the US for a good while now, but it's currently unavailable to buy almost everywhere. There is some stock of the gray Switch console right now Best Buy, though. Our best guess is that retailers are holding out for a big restock before Black Friday.
After falling out of stock for a couple of weeks, the Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing Edition is available once more at Best Buy. It's 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.
$334.98 $321.99 at Amazon
You're not saving too much here, but you can shave $13 off the price of a Nintendo Switch console and 128GB official Nintendo memory card when you grab both together in a bundle at Amazon right now. Considering stock has been so low over the last few months that's an excellent offer, though if you're not fussed about picking up a Nintendo branded memory card you might find better deals on microSD cards in the future.Nintendo Switch bundles (UK)
£259.99 £239.99 at ShopTo (via eBay)
Save £20 - If you just want the Nintendo Switch console by itself then you can find one from ShopTo on its eBay store. This is a brand new console and £20 less than the new recommended price for a Switch console. You won't find it cheaper anywhere else right now.
£316.97 £259.99 at My Nintendo Store
Save £56.98 – The best Nintendo Switch bundle that was available to buy over Black Friday is still live. 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 good value this bundle is at the official Nintendo Store.
£299 £279 at Currys
Save £20 – Currys has one of the better Nintendo Switch bundles available to buy this week. It comes with a copy of the joyful lifestyle sim Animal Crossing New Horizons for half price. Not a bad saving at all, especially on one of the console's most popular games.
Get a Nintendo Switch neon console plus the fabulous Pikmin 3 Deluxe effectively thrown in for just a £10 with this great bundle at Game. With the Switch likely to be one of the hottest gifts this Christmas, this is a great chance to secure the console while stocks last.
The latest price cut brings the cost of this Nintendo Switch and The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword HD bundle down to its lowest price yet. While it's a good price now, it's not as good value for money as the Mario Kart 8 bundle above. Still, if this is the game you want instead, it's a decent bundle deal.
£369.99 £309.99 at Amazon
Save £60 – This Nintendo Switch bundle was available last year and has now made its return at Amazon before the end of the year. It comes back at a reduced price of £309.99 - down £20 compared to 2020. This is in line with the permanent price cut given to the Nintendo Switch in the UK earlier this year and is a good bundle if you're looking to get into Nintendo's exercise game Ring Fit Adventure.
Amazon has the Nintendo Switch OLED (Neon) console in stock. This is the first major restock for the upgraded console it has had since October. Of course, given it's only been available for a month there is no discount just yet when bought by itself.
If you want the Nintendo Switch OLED in White or Neon then both are available at the My Nintendo Store for £309.99. Consoles are now in stock and ready for immediate dispatch so a delivery before Christmas is still available. Plus, if you go for a bundle, you get a carry case as a free gift.
£351.99 £338.99 at Amazon
Save £13 – This is the best value Nintendo Switch OLED bundle available to buy today. Just Dance 2022 has proven to be a strong seller over Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so getting a console and one of its most popular games is a strong offer - especially with this £13 discount.
The £10 saving on this bundle is no longer available at Very so expect to pay full price for console and cutesy lifestyle sim Animal Crossing New Horizons. As one of the Nintendo Switch's most popular and best-selling games, we expect this bundle to go fairly quickly.
This bundle includes Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - another top-selling Switch title. It's rarely discounted if you were looking to buy it separately so it's understandable that there isn't really a saving to be found here. However, it's also an ideal game to start off your Switch library.
£359.98 £349.98 at Very
Save £10 – There's a small £10 discount on this Nintendo Switch OLED bundle at Very - but it's slightly misleading. The latest version of the popular console is usually priced at £309, so you're effectively getting a copy of Metroid Dread for just £40. That said, we have seen the game for £30 at some stores, so while still a good discount, it's not as big a saving as it really makes itself out to be.
This is a very strong multiplayer-focused bundle with frenetic racer Mario Kart 8 and inventive platformer Super Mario 3D World. Both games are best experienced with friends, whether you're competing for first place or collaborating to reach the end of a tricky course.
This bundle includes both new Pokémon games that only just launched on November 19. If you're the biggest fan of catching 'em all or are buying for someone who is, it's an unbeatable bundle.Nintendo Switch bundles: how to spot a good deal
