Black Friday is here, and Nintendo fans have plenty to be excited about. Whether you’re after the latest hardware or top games, this holiday shopping season is stacked with Nintendo Switch discounts. In 2025 the spotlight is on the new Nintendo Switch 2 (the next-generation model), but savvy shoppers can also score deals on games, accessories, and even the older Switch models. Major retailers like Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy and Nintendo’s own stores are all rolling out promotions, bundles, and flash sales. This guide rounds up the best Switch Black Friday deals and bundles you can grab right now – many of them available in the USA.

Nintendo Switch 2 Console & Bundle Deals

This year, Nintendo Switch 2 consoles themselves aren’t deeply discounted. The base Switch 2 still sells at its full MSRP ($449.99) in most places, since the console only launched months ago. Instead, the best savings come from bundles that include a game or accessories for “free.” For example, Amazon and other retailers are offering the Switch 2 bundled with a game at the full $499 price – effectively giving you that $60 game at no extra cost. Here are the top Switch 2 console deals right now:

  • Nintendo Switch 2 (console only): $449.99 at Amazon (no game). This is the standard retail price; no deeper discount has appeared. If you just want the console, this is as low as it goes.
  • Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle: $499 at Amazon. This bundle includes the full-priced Mario Kart World game at no extra charge (saving roughly $30 vs. buying them separately). It’s essentially “free” Mario Kart World with your console. Amazon is listing this bundle at $499, matching Nintendo’s suggested price.
  • Switch 2 + Pokémon Legends: Z-A bundle: $499 at Walmart. Walmart is offering the new Switch 2 with Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Like the Mario Kart bundle, this package saves about $20 compared to buying the game and console separately. It’s a good way to get both the console and a hot new game together.
  • Nintendo Switch 2 + Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom bundle: $519 at select retailers. Some stores (like GameStop and Best Buy) have been bundling the Switch 2 with the new Zelda game. These bundles usually run $519, which is $20 off the combined retail prices, so it’s a small saving but comes with the popular Zelda game included. (Check local ads for this offer.)
  • Nintendo Switch OLED (older model): ~$339–$379 at Walmart. The previous-generation Switch OLED has seen some discounts. For instance, Walmart is selling the red OLED Switch (Japanese import model) for about $339, and a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundle with racing wheels for roughly $379. These aren’t Switch 2 deals, but if you can wait or don’t mind the older model, they’re solid bargains.
  • Renewed (refurbished) Switch consoles – From ~$274 on Amazon. Amazon’s renewed section has some first-generation Switch consoles (refurbished) for under $300. For example, you might find an original Switch or OLED model for about $274. This is a great budget option if you just want a working Switch at a lower price.

In short, if you’re buying a new Switch this Black Friday, go for a bundle. The console price stays the same, but bundles effectively let you get a full-priced game (like Mario Kart World or Pokémon Z-A) “for free”. Buying a Switch 2 alone at $449 is fine if you already have games, but if you can swing it, the $499 bundles at Amazon and Walmart give you more value.

Top Nintendo Switch Game Deals

Black Friday isn’t just for hardware – it’s a major sale event for games too. Right now you can find huge discounts on both AAA and indie Switch titles, especially on Amazon and Walmart’s websites. Many Switch 2 games are slashed up to 50–57% off. Here are some of the best game deals live now:

  • Star Wars Outlaws: ~$30 at Amazon (50% off). This popular new Switch 2 action game is half-price on Amazon. At $30 (down from $60), it’s one of the biggest game discounts we’ve seen.
  • Sonic X Shadows Generations: ~$25 at Amazon (50% off). An updated Sonic compilation with new content, this game is around $24.99 on Amazon. Normally $49, it’s 50% off this week.
  • Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut – ~$29.99 at Amazon (40% off). This acclaimed action RPG is on sale for $29.99 (regularly $49.99). It’s the lowest price yet for this Switch 2-ready re-release.
  • Madden NFL 36 / NBA 2K26 / EA SPORTS FC 26: $29.99 each at Amazon (57% off). Popular sports games are also on sale – all three big sports titles dropped from $69.99 to $29.99, a 57% discount. So if you like football, basketball or soccer games on Switch, grab them now.
  • The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch 2 Edition): $39.99 at Walmart/Target/Nintendo (25% off). Nintendo’s brand-new Zelda game is on sale for the first time. From its $59.99 list price it’s been cut to $39.99 (save $20) at major retailers starting Nov. 23. That’s still a good chunk off the price, and a great chance to jump in on this epic adventure.
  • Super Mario Odyssey: $29.99 at Amazon (50% off). One of Mario’s biggest games, usually $59.99, is now only $29.99. This is an extremely low price for Mario Odyssey, so don’t miss it if you didn’t play it before.
  • Donkey Kong Bananza: ~$62 at Woot (10% off). A brand-new Switch 2 game, Donkey Kong Bananza was just released and is already $61.99 at Woot (down from $69.99). It’s a slight discount now, but the real savings come if you plan to buy it bundled with a Switch 2 console (as some bundles include DK Bananza for “free”).
  • Pokémon Legends: Z-A: Included in the $499 bundle above. If you missed the bundle, you might still find Pokémon Z-A on sale or at least available with retailer promotions.
  • Other first-party Nintendo titles: Many older Nintendo games have BF deals. For example, Walmart is selling Luigi’s Mansion 3, Splatoon 3, Kirby’s Return to Dreamland Deluxe, Princess Peach: Showtime! and others for around $30 each. Woot (Amazon’s clearance arm) even has sets of Nintendo’s first-party hits (like Tears of the Kingdom, Smash Bros., Mario Kart 8) up to 20% off in their BF sale – and if you use the Woot app you get an extra 20% off making them some of the best prices of the year. These are all great opportunities to pick up Nintendo’s popular games at steep discounts.
  • Indie and multi-platform games: Aside from big first-party titles, plenty of other games are discounted. The Grand Theft Auto Trilogy is down to $19.99, Monster Hunter Stories Collection is ~$24.99, and Bluey: The Video Game – Gnome Plush Bundle is $39.99, among many others. Check Amazon’s listings for “Nintendo Switch Games” to see sales up to 70% off on many titles.

In short, games are where you’ll see the biggest savings. Amazon and other online stores currently have dozens of Switch games for half-off or more. If there’s a title you wanted (from Star Wars Outlaws to Mario Odyssey to Persona 3 Reload), now is the time to buy. Many of these deals may end by the end of Cyber Monday, so acting fast is wise.

Nintendo Switch (Original) Deals & Bundles

If you don’t need the latest hardware, you can also save on the older Switch models. These deals aren’t as headline-grabbing as the new console bundles, but there are still some worthwhile offers:

  • Nintendo Switch OLED (2019 model) – ~$339–$349 at Walmart. Walmart has notably discounted the older Switch OLED. For example, the red Switch OLED model is selling for about $349 (down from $408), and a Switch OLED bundle (with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Joy-Con wheels) goes for ~$379. These are solid prices for the flagship Switch that predates the new model. If you just want a larger screen Switch, keep an eye on Walmart’s Black Friday sale.
  • Nintendo Switch (original 2017 model) – ~$274 renewed on Amazon. First-generation Switch consoles can be found refurbished. Amazon’s renewed category has Switch consoles (and OLED) around the mid-$200s. These are used units, but sold as certified refurbished – a budget-friendly way to get a Switch.
  • Nintendo Switch Lite – ~$199 (no change). The handheld-only Switch Lite hasn’t seen any major price cuts because it was already cheaper ($199). You may find it bundled with a game or accessory, but it generally remains $199. Note that the Switch Lite can play Switch games in handheld mode, but games are only partially compatible with Switch 2 upgrades.
  • Older game bundles – Last year’s Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundle (Switch + MK8) may still appear on sale in some places (around $279). Also watch for deals on Switch Lite bundles (like Lightning McQueen or Pokémon editions) which occasionally dip a bit for BF.

The big point: if your heart is set on Nintendo’s latest tech, go for the Switch 2 deals above. But if you just want a Switch console at the lowest price, the discounted OLED models at Walmart or a refurbished Switch from Amazon can save you some money right now.

Accessories and More Deals

Black Friday isn’t just about consoles and games – accessories, storage, and peripherals are on sale too. Some highlights:

Memory cards (microSD):

Nintendo’s own announcement offers $20 off on Samsung microSD Express cards starting Nov. 30. In practice, you can already find big sales on microSD. For example, a 512GB Samsung P9 microSD is just $74.99 (25% off) on Amazon. Even cheaper, the 256GB model is about $47.49. These high-speed cards are perfect for storing all your downloaded games on a Switch 2.

Carrying cases and protectors:

With a new Switch, you’ll want to protect it. Good cases like the Belkin Carrying Case for Switch 2 are on sale (around $21.99 at Amazon). There are similar deals on other cases, screen protectors, and travel kits on Amazon and gaming sites.

Controllers and bundles:

Wireless Switch controllers (Joy-Con and Pro Controllers) often get small discounts. Third-party controllers and accessories are heavily marked down; for instance, generic Switch-compatible gamepads can drop to the $15–$20 range. Some deals page lists Show third-party controllers from $17.99 up. Also look for bundle deals: some stores include extra Joy-Con or a Pro Controller if you buy a console, or offer Wii-style racing wheel kits at a discount.

Gaming headsets and audio gear:

Bluetooth headsets for Switch, such as those from Turtle Beach or HyperX, often see $30–$60 Black Friday sale prices. If you need a headset or speakers, check Best Buy and Amazon for deals.

Nintendo amiibo and Lego sets:

Nintendo’s official site mentioned $10 off certain amiibo figures. For example, popular amiibo (Zelda sages, Street Fighter) are on sale for about $9.99–$14.99. Additionally, Nintendo-themed Lego sets are on sale at retailers like Amazon (up to 50% off) – handy if you’re buying gifts.

 

Bundled gift cards or warranties:

Occasionally retailers throw in bonus gift cards or extended warranties. While not a straight discount on the Switch itself, keep an eye out for bundle promotions (e.g., a free $20 gift card with a console) that increase the value of your purchase.

 

In short, check accessories and storage deals too – they can add up to serious savings on your overall gaming setup. Memory cards and extra controllers in particular are often on sale for Black Friday.

Where to Shop for the Best Switch Deals

Every major retailer has its own Black Friday deals page, and it’s worth browsing them all to find the best offers. Here’s a quick rundown of top places to look:

Amazon:

The largest selection of Switch deals. Amazon is offering the Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle for $499 and hundreds of discounted items in its Black Friday store. You’ll find dozens of Switch games up to 50% off (as noted above) and many accessories on sale. Check Amazon’s Lightning Deals and coupons too – sometimes you can stack a coupon for extra savings. Amazon also sells the older Switch OLED bundles and refurbished Switch consoles. In short, Amazon’s BF deals page is the first stop for most Switch shoppers.

 

Walmart: 

Walmart has been the place for Switch console bundles and some of the steepest hardware cuts. It’s offering the Switch 2 + Pokémon Legends Z-A bundle for $499, and Nintendo’s first-party games (like Echoes of Wisdom, Odyssey, Splatoon 3) for about $30 each as Nintendo announced. Notably, Walmart has discounted the Switch OLED (red model for ~$349) and a Mario Kart bundle for ~$379. Walmart also lists sale prices on many Switch 2 games and accessories. Browse Walmart’s BF ad and website for their full Switch deals.

 

Best Buy: 

Best Buy runs a big Black Friday sale too. Historically they match or slightly undercut other retailers on Switch bundles and games. Expect similar Switch 2 bundles ($499 with game) at Best Buy, possibly with the addition of free gift cards on certain purchases. Best Buy is also hosting demo events for Switch games this season, so if you have a store nearby you might find special bundles or in-store offers (they do the same on other consoles). Check Best Buy’s BF flyer and online “Black Friday Deals” section.

 

Target: 

Target will have its own Black Friday clearance on electronics. While Target often mimics Amazon/Walmart prices, they may also include Cartwheel deals or promos (for example, 5% off for REDcard holders). Target has a Black Friday Black Friday site listing Switch consoles and games, and they often bundle games or accessories with consoles. Keep an eye on Target’s game deals and LEGO sales if you want a Switch-themed gift.

 

Nintendo eShop (Cyber Deals): 

Don’t forget the digital side. Nintendo’s “Cyber Deals” sale runs roughly Nov. 20–Dec. 3, with discounts on downloadable games for both Switch 2 and the older Switch. This includes many of Nintendo’s first-party titles (Tears of the Kingdom, Odyssey, Splatoon 3, etc.) as digital downloads, typically 20–30% off. If you mainly buy games digitally, check the eShop during this period – the deals can stack with any free updates (Switch 2 upgrades) for titles you buy.

 

GameStop and others: 

GameStop often has its own promotions like gift cards or bundled accessories with new consoles, although their specific BF offerings may be less public. It’s worth looking if you have credit or gift card deals. Specialty stores like Best Buy and Walmart will cover most deals. Also look at warehouse clubs (Costco, Sam’s Club) for any Switch bundles, and note that some (like Sam’s Club) might bundle a gift card with a console purchase.

 

Overall, mix and match retailers to get the best combination. For instance, you might buy a Switch bundle on Amazon and a separate controller on Walmart for slightly better savings. Always check if a bundle’s included game (or wheels, etc.) is something you want.

Tips for Scoring the Best Deals

To make sure you snag the best Switch deals, follow these tips:

  • Set alerts and make wish lists: Add the Switch console and games you want to your Amazon or Walmart wishlist or cart. Many retailers will email or notify you if the price drops. This way you don’t have to hunt manually through dozens of listings.
  • Act fast on big discounts: Popular deals like Mario Odyssey for $30 or the Mario Kart bundle at $499 can sell out quickly. If you see a low price on a high-demand game or bundle, don’t delay. These promotions often have limited stock.
  • Look for coupons and promo codes: On Amazon, some games or accessories have an extra coupon checkbox that clips an additional 10% or 20% off. Target and Best Buy may have store coupons or credit card promotions that stack with sale prices. For example, Woot (owned by Amazon) offered an extra 20% off Nintendo bundles through their app during BF.
  • Verify bundles carefully: When buying a console, read exactly what comes in the box. Some “bundles” might only include a digital game code instead of a physical cartridge. Make sure any game or accessory listed is actually included for no extra cost. Sometimes bundles are region-specific, so confirm it’s the US version.
  • Consider Cyber Monday: If you happen to miss a deal on Black Friday itself, remember that Cyber Monday (the Monday after Thanksgiving) often brings either the same deals or new ones online. Check on Nov. 30, 2025 for any late-breaking Switch deals (retailers often extend or refresh their sales).
  • Combine with trade-ins or gift cards: Some stores accept old game or console trade-ins which can knock a bit off the price of a new console. Also, reward points or gift card sales (e.g. buying gift cards at 5% off) effectively give you extra savings on your purchase.
  • Plan your purchase: Make sure someone is watching the checkout price. Browser extensions or the retailer’s quick checkout (like Amazon’s 1-Click) can be faster than entering info manually. And don’t forget shipping and tax – free shipping thresholds (like at Target or Walmart) might influence which store you use.

By shopping smart and comparing across sites, you can maximize savings on everything from consoles to controllers.

Conclusion

This Black Friday 2025 is shaping up to be a great time to buy Nintendo Switch hardware, games, and accessories. The new Switch 2 may not have a price cut, but bundle offers (especially at Amazon and Walmart) mean you get big games at no extra charge. At the same time, hundreds of games are on sale for up to 50–60% off, including top titles like Mario Odyssey, Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, and Star Wars Outlaws. Don’t forget the older Switch consoles – Walmart has marked down the OLED Switch around $339–$379 for select bundles if you’d rather save a few bucks on the hardware.

Keep an eye on Amazon’s Switch deals page, Walmart’s Black Friday ad, and other retailer sites. If you see a deal that fits your wishlist, go for it – stock won’t last. Between Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy and Nintendo’s own Cyber Deals, you’ve got plenty of ways to save on a Switch this season. Happy shopping, and have fun gaming!
