Best Black Friday Nintendo Switch Deals 2024

Black Friday is officially here, and if you’ve been waiting to finally buy a Nintendo Switch or stock up on new games, today is the perfect time to do it. Retailers are discounting a ton of gaming-related accessories, including Nintendo’s most beloved games, like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (one of my top games) and Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Best of all, you can buy the Nintendo Switch console (and its OLED version) as part of a bundle for added value — you get a best-selling game and access to Nintendo Online. I’ve been playing the Nintendo Switch since its debut back in 2017, so I know what’s worth shopping — which includes the deals on this list.

I found, researched, and wrote about every Nintendo deal I recommend below. I worked with NBC Select editors to finalize the live list, which I regularly update through Black Friday to reflect the most up-to-date prices.

Nintendo Switch Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Pack

4.7-star average rating from 230 reviews at Walmart

The Nintendo Switch console is one of the most versatile gaming systems out there; the handheld console is small enough to pack or carry in a bag, but still powerful enough to run a variety of games. For the price of a Nintendo Switch, you get the classic system (which you can use in handheld, tabletop, or TV mode), the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game (Nintendo’s top seller) and a 12-month subscription to Nintendo Switch Online, which gives you access to online games and the ability to play with other players remotely.

Nintendo Switch — OLED Model: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Bundle

4.7-star average rating from 116 reviews at Walmart

This bundle gives you the same deal as the Nintendo Switch Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Bundle above, but with the Nintendo Switch’s OLED model instead. The difference? It has a larger 7-inch OLED screen and improved sound when playing in handheld and tabletop mode. (These improvements don’t translate to TV mode, though, so it might not be worth it if you plan to use it at home.)

Why trust NBC Select?

I’m a New York-based freelance writer and editor focusing on beauty, health, and gaming for Amazon Prime Day, Black Friday, and Cyber ​​Monday, and I’ve covered deals and sales for NBC Select for three years. To assess the quality of these Nintendo Switch deals, I made sure it’s at least 20% off and a highly rated item with at least an average rating of 4.0 stars from hundreds of reviews.
