Nintendo Switch deals are fairly easy to find this month. Retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop are offering discounts on everything from Switch games to must-have Switch accessories. However, if you’re looking for Nintendo Switch deals on consoles, things are a little trickier.
We haven’t seen price drops on the Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch Lite in months. While the consoles are easy to find in stock, both devices remain in high demand, which means retailers have no incentive to discount them. Even with the latest Nintendo Switch Pro rumors, Switch prices aren’t coming down. So we’re rounding up the best Nintendo Switch deals on accessories, games, and more. If you do need a console, make sure to check out our where to buy Nintendo Switch guide for stock updates and bundle deals.

Nintendo Switch deals and Memorial Day
Memorial Day sales are finally here. While the holiday won’t bring dollar-off Nintendo Switch deals on Nintendo’s console, we expect to see Switch deals on games, accessories, and more. We might even see some decent bundle deals as we approach the holiday. (Most recently, the Switch Lite was bundled with a $20 Amazon credit). Make sure to follow our Memorial Day coverage for the best Nintendo Switch deals of the holiday weekend.
Nintendo Switch deals and Prime Day
Prime Day will be here before you know it. During it last earnings call, Amazon reps confirmed that Prime Day would occur in Q2 of 2021. That means we’re looking at a late May or June Prime Day. While we don’t expect to see significant dollar-off discounts on the Switch console, we do expect to see plenty of Nintendo Switch deals on games and accessories. Make sure to follow our Prime Day deals coverage to find the best Nintendo Switch deals during Amazon’s retail holiday.
Best Nintendo Switch deals
The Nintendo Switch (with extended battery) retails for $299. The console with the improved battery was released in 2019. The updated battery lasts a maximum of nine hours, rather than 6.5 like its predecessor. (You can spot the new console from its packaging: the upgraded Nintendo Switch box has a red background).
However, Switch demand has made finding Switch deals near-impossible. That said, you’ll never see it selling for less than list price. But not all hope is lost. Retailers like Amazon and Walmart occasionally offer Switch bundles, which include a free game or credit. These are your best options if you’re looking for Switch deals on the console itself.
In addition, Nintendo recently launched a new Nintendo Switch Mario Red & Blue Edition that costs $299. It comes with a bonus carrying case.
Nintendo Switch Lite deals
The Editor’s Choice Nintendo Switch Lite retails for $199. It’s smaller and lighter than the traditional Switch which makes it even more portable. We love the Switch Lite’s gorgeous, comfortable design, good battery life, and stellar game library. The Switch Lite is available in three colors: gray, turquoise, and yellow.
Unlike the Nintendo Switch, the Switch Lite is slightly easier to find in stock. Usually Best Buy, Amazon, and GameStop have stock of the Switch Lite in various colors. As for as Switch Lite deals — don’t expect any. Last month Amazon had the Switch Lite bundled with a $20 Amazon credit for $199. That’s as good as Nintendo Switch deals get these days. You’ll have to wait till Prime Day for better discounts.
