Best Cyber Monday Switch deals in detail
Best Switch Cyber Monday US deals
Switch OLED + Super Smash Bros. Ultimate + 3 months online membership: $349.99 at Best Buy
Save over $70: This is an incredible deal considering that the Nintendo Switch OLED usually retails for $349.99 on its own. So with Smash Bros thrown in (which costs $59.99 individually) and three months' worth of Nintendo Online included (worth $12) you're off to a strong start.
Price check: | $349.99 at Target | $349.99 at Nintendo
Switch + Mario Kart 8 + online: $299.99 at Best Buy
Save $70: A Nintendo Switch and one of the most popular games thrown in for free! Plus three months of online subscription?! This is a cracking deal available at Best Buy and also at Nintendo.
Price check: $299.99 at Nintendo
Nintendo Switch Lite Animal Crossing: New Horizons bundle Timmy & Tommy’s Aloha Edition : $199 at Walmart
Save $50: The Switch Lite doesn't tend to see many discounts other than a couple of dollars off the occasional import. That makes this a very rare opportunity to get a special-edition version of the console with a free game download.
Price check: Standard Switch Lite $199 at Nintendo (with no game)
Nintendo Switch Lite Animal Crossing: New Horizons Bundle - Isabelle's Aloha Edition $199.99 at Target
This is the same deal but on a pink Isabelle edition of the Lite. Again, a free copy of the Animal Crossing game comes pre-installed.
Best Switch Cyber Monday UK deals
Nintendo Switch OLED: £309 £279 at Asda
Save £30: Here's a direct saving on the Switch OLED console alone. A similar deal to this was previously running at Amazon but sold out. Asda also had the original Switch on sale, but that's gone too, so I don't expect this to last long either.
Nintendo Switch OLED Mario Kart bundle: £299 at Very and at Amazon
Save £66: The OLED console is usually £309 and the game around £40, add to that the £7.99 membership, so this is a very good deal indeed. Other retailers were also offering the same combo but sold out. (If this one also sells out, Nintendo itself has the same bundle for £309.
Price check: Nintendo £309
Nintendo Switch + Super Mario Bros Wonder + Nick Karts 3 Slime Speedway: £339 £279 at Very
Save £60: Super Mario Bros Wonder is one of the most anticipated Switch games of the year. Released on 20 October, it's the first new side-scroll Super Mario game in over a decade, and it's wonderfully bonkers! Considering that the Switch console alone retails for £259 and the game £49.99, this is a great deal. For £20 more, Very has a bundle with Sonic Superstars.
Price check: We've not seen this exact bundle elsewhere. Nintendo has Switch + Mario Wonder and a case for £309.98
Nintendo Switch + Super Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + Super Mario Bros Wonder + membership: £359.98 £329.99 at Game
Save £29.99: Another bundle option here. The saving isn't as big as those above, but it's worth considering if you want these two great Mario games to start with.
Price check: We've not seen this exact bundle elsewhere.
Nintendo Switch Lite Animal Crossing special editions: $189 at Argos
Save £10 + free game: This brand new bundle deal includes a special edition Animal Crossing-themed Switch Lite console in turquoise or coral with a leaf pattern on the back, plus Animal Crossing: New Horizons pre-installed. And all for £10 less than the usual price of the Switch Lite console alone.
Price check: Argos also has $10 off the standard Switch Lite console in all four colours.
Nintendo Switch Lite + Super Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: £239.98 £219 at Game
Save £19.99: Game has several bundle deals on the Nintendo Switch Lite with a game. The deal is really on the game rather than the console, but it makes sense to get them together.
Price check: £227 at Amazon
Nintendo Switch Sports bundle: £298 £259.99 at Argos
Save £49 (appox): This Nintendo Switch bundle gets you Nintendo Switch Sports and 3 months of Nintendo Switch online membership, saving you around £49. Games include tennis, bowling, football and volleyball. These bundle deals are often the best offers we see over Black Friday, so are worth snapping up.
Price check: £279.99 at Game
Sonic Frontiers: £54.99 £24.99 at Argos
SAVE £30: Argos has some great Switch game deals in the UK. This is one of the biggest deals. Amazon also has a big discount on this game, but it seems to be going fast.
Price Check: £29.83 at Amazon
LIVE: Latest Updates
Missed out on Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals? Fear not! Because Cyber Monday is around the corner, and we're here to bring you all the best Cyber Monday Switch deals, as and when they go live.
Things look like they've calmed down since the week proceeding Black Friday, but if past years are anything to go by, we expect a flurry of new deals coming later today and all of tomorrow.
Right now in the UK, one of the best Switch bundle deals is from Smyths Toys. Get either one of the excellent Super Mario Bros games, and the Switch console, for only £279.99, down from £300. Not bad at all!
Hi, this is Erlingur, the Tech Reviews Editor of your dreams (and the Creative Bloq site), taking over this blog for the next hour or so.
I'm very intrigued by the EA Sports FC 24 game. Not just because the guy on the cover shares my first name, but also because this is the first post-FIFA-deal game from EA Sports, so I've been worrying it might struggle. However, reviews have indicated that it's done the opposite, and breathed a fresh new life into the famous football game (that's soccer for you, American colonials).
And I'm happy to report it's still handsomely discounted on both sides of the pond! In the UK, you can grab EA Sports FC 24 for £29.99 at Currys (was £49.99), and in the US, the proportional discount is even better, or a hair over half price off at Best Buy, now $29.99 (was $59.99). And you get someone named Erling on the cover too. It's not me, though, unfortunately, just some Norwegian bloke...
I really like Hot Wheels Unleashed. And my 7-year-old kid loves it. And that means I have to make sure he doesn't see this update.
Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged is still discounted through Cyber Monday on Currys in the UK. The recently released game has been dropped by a solid 15 quid to £29.99 (was £44.99).
And if you're in the US, happy days. Amazon has also knocked 15 dollarydoos off it, so instead of $49.99, you'll only have to pay $34.99 for your child's eternal gratitude (or, y'know, some arcade-style racing fun).
And now for some very sexy deal news. Grrrrrr. Yes, it's all about screen protectors.
If you have a Switch, you know it's made to be portable. And anything made to be carried will also, inevitably, fall or slide or hit something. And then you want something to protect that precious, precious screen.
Well, my dear, beloved Switch-deal-hunting reader, I've got good news. The well-reviewed ivoler (not a typo, the branding is all lowercase) screen protector is a very sexy 47% off for Cyber Monday on Amazon US, or only $8.47, down from its list price of $15.99.
Our tracking puts this slightly below the lowest-ever price we've seen before, which was $8.95, so if you want to make sure that Switch screen stays as crack- and scratch-free as possible, now's the time to do something about it, I say.
Hey-o, this is Ian stepping for a bit. I'm CB's Editor, Digital Art & 3D and a massive gamer - in a past life I edited Official PlayStation Magazine (but don't hold that against me Ninty fans, I also own a Switch, NES, SNES and GameCube).
So, what's good today? There's a tiny 2% off The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at Amazon, which is kind of laughable. But if you do want to pick up Nintendo's best game, there are some good deals I've found, including £15 off at Very.
The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom: £59.99 £47.99 at Very
Nintendo Switch is a great console for indie gaming, and Cyber Monday is the ideal time to scoop up armfuls of those sleeper hits you've had an eye on, particularly as Triple-A games like Super Mario Wonder aren't coming down in price. Below are my favourite indies on Nintendo Switch for less. (Also take a look at our guides to the best indie games and the best anime games for more like this.)
Fate Samurai Remnant: £54.99 £35.99
Nintendo Switch is actually one of the best retro consoles around, not only can you play classic Nintendo games for free with a Nintendo Online sub you there are some great deals on retro game collections right now. I've listed my favourites below (I already own some of these) and if you want something more specialised, read my roundup of the best Cyber Monday retro console deals.

Nintendo Switch OLED is an amazing console, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is one of the best games for the console, get both in this Amazon bundle for $349. The best part? the offer also includes a three month Nintendo Switch Online membership - which actually includes a whole bunch of free classic Nintendo games.
Nintendo Switch OLED + Super Smash Bros. Ultimate bundle: $417 $349
If, like me, you're used to playing on more traditional video controllers then you'll want to upgrade your standard Switch Joy Con for a pro gamepad when playing Nintendo Switch hooked up to a TV. Below are the best and most eye-catching Nintendo Switch controller deals I've found this Cyber Monday. (My personal favourite is the FaSonyke, not least because of that cheeky name but also because its design is just so, well… wild.)
Manba Switch Controller: $29.99 $23.99
Let's get physical! The joy of Nintendo Switch is it offers all the fun of Nintendo Wii but in a slicker, more powerful package. This means we get some excellent sports and fitness games that only Switch can really deliver. Below are the best deals I've found on the games that will get you moving this Cyber Monday!
Nintendo Switch Sports: $49.99 $30 at Walmart
Knockout Home Fitness: $29.99 $19.99 at Amazon
Let's get Labo-serious. This strange series of cardboard accessories for Nintendo Switch has been bubbling around for a number of years now; just when you think Nintendo is done with it a new set comes out.
These Labo 'model' sets enable you to build all sorts of accessories for Switch, from blasters to steering wheels and even VR goggles. They won't last forever, but while they do you'll have great fun building and toying around with these add-ons.
Nintendo Labo Toy-Con 04: VR Kit - Starter Set + Blaster: $89.97 $82
Nintendo Labo - Robot Kit: $59.99 $45
If you're still hooked on Pokémon Go! after all these years then Nintendo has something for you, the Pokémon GO Plus + do-dad that can be used with the app to capture Pokémon's in a more physical way. There's a small discount at Amazon, get the Pokémon GO Plus + for $54.99 $50.99 or head to the Nintendo store.
The Pokémon GO Plus + gadget is also a health monitor that can track your sleep patterns and resting health. It also acts as a night light and there's even your very own Pikachu hiding inside to sing to sleep. Great for kids and adults who love shrill lullabies.
It's Cyber Monday 2023 and, well… there's an offer on The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The update of the classic role-playing game, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition is $69.99 $34.99 at the Nintendo Store. This is the only place you find the game for sale on Switch, and all joking aside, Skyrim is a true classic and remains fun. The Nintendo-focused Anniversary Edition features new Creation Club content, plus all three official expansions - Dawnguard, Hearthfire, and Dragonborn.
It's Nintendo merch time! There's no better gift for a friend, relative or even yourself than some Ninty merch - heck, you don't even need to like Nintendo games to get a little sweaty-palmed at the sight of a Piranha Plant Lamp, King Boo The Ghost Face neon light or an Arceus plush. Let's look at those Cyber Monday Nintendo merch deals…
Super Mario Bros Piranha Plant Lamp: $41.99 $33.59
Neon King Boo The Ghost Face sign: $59.99 $27.99
Nintendo men's Zelda logo t-shirt: $17 $14.39
Pokémon Legends: Arceus 12" Duskull Large Plush: $29.99 $23.99
Walmart's wild ride on its Nintendo Switch OLED sale continues into Cyber Monday - the price rose to $305.99 yesterday but has now dropped again to an eye-catching $299.01 (a $49.99 saving). This is the newer OLED model that we love, and its rare to find any discount outside of a games bundle.
So this exists… Super Mario Guess Who? The classic board game replaces faceless Joes and Jos with your favourite Mario characters. It's actually quite brilliant and I want it. If this appeals to you then take a look below at the Super Mario Guess Who? deal and other Nintendo-themed board games to pick up for less.
Super Mario Guess Who?: $37.99 $30.65 at Amazon
Monopoly The Super Mario Bros Board Game: $21.99 $16.24 at Walmart
Epoch Games Super Mario Piranha Plant Escape!: $19.99 $14.99 at Amazon
The Game of Life: Super Mario Edition: $29.99 $20.99 at Amazon
While Walmart remains the place to go for Switch Cyber Monday bargain hunters in the US who want the Switch OLED console alone, in the UK the place to be is Asda. Yes, Asda, the supermarket. Not the first place I would think of going for a gaming console, but it had the best deal on the OLED console during Black Monday and the deal is still live as we approach Cyber Monday!
- Nintendo Switch OLED:
£309£279 at Asda
Those Switch OLED deals at Walmart and Asda are the best if you want the console alone, but if this is your first Switch console, you're going to need at least one game to start with. And while there are some cheap or even free Switch games, you probably want to start with a big one. That means that a bundle deal can be a good option. Here are the best Nintendo Switch OLED Cyber Monday deals in the US and UK right now:
- US: Switch OLED + Super Smash Bros. Ultimate + 3 months online membership: $349 at Best Buy and at Nintendo
- UK: Nintendo Switch OLED Mario Kart bundle: £299 at Very
Speaking of free games, if you do go for one of those deals on a Switch console alone and don't want to have to also immediately spent a pile of cash on games, I'd recommend checking our pick of the best Nintendo Switch games. There you'll find a selection of 15 excellent free games chosen by our own reviewers, including puzzle games like Pokémon Café Remix (pic above), arcade games, RPGs and Multiplayer games.
If you do have some cash left to spend on games, now is a good time to build your library because there's a whole bunch of Cyber Monday Switch games deals about.
The Nintendo Store has no less than 3652 game deals running right now. True, a lot of them are on games you've probably never hear of, but that doesn't mean they're to be overlooked. There are probably some real gems in there that even Creative Bloq's biggest Switch experts haven't got around to playing yet.
Among the bigger names, there's a third off Luigi's Mansion and Super Mario Odyssey, reducing the price to $39.99. But there are discounts as big as 92% on some games, and prices as cheap as $1.99. The biggest saving I've seen is 92% off a game called Little Mouse's Encyclopedia + Cat's Cosmic Atlas, reduced to $1.99, and it actually looks very cute. Another very cheap game is Rally Race: Offroad Simulator, which looks like some retro racing fun.
Amazon has some great deals on Switch games too. Our top pick there remains 50% off Sonic Frontiers (pictured). But there's also 42% off Sonic Superstars and 25% off the 2023 edition of the perennially popular dance game Just Dance and $10 off the absolutely essential (in my opinion) the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
A lot of people come to the Switch for its retro value, but there are also a bunch of other consoles out there for retro gaming, including miniature replicas of old Nintendo consoles. Both the Super NES Classic and Nintendo Classic Mini made it into our resident gaming expert's pick of the best retro game consoles. The problem is that they sold out on release, and picking one up now will often cost you as much if not more than a Switch, making them something for real aficionados only.
But our top pick as the best retro games console overall is the Evercade EXP, which can play hundreds of retro games via cartridge collections, from 8-bit classics to 16-bit hits (see our full Evercade EXP review for the lowdown.)
- US: Evercade EXP
$149.99$137.99 at Amazon - UK: Evercade EXP
£129.99£112.36 at Amazon
Here's another UK Switch bundle deal that I don't think we mentioned yet. This one's on the original console and includes what is the Switch game of the year for many people (and perhaps of the decade if you're a big Mario fan!). Yes, of course, we're talking about Super Mario Bros. Wonder, the first traditional side-scrolling Super Mario game since 2012! And yes, Mario turns into an elephant! the deal below represents a saving of £60.
- Nintendo Switch + Super Mario Bros Wonder + Nick Karts 3 Slime Speedway:
£339£279 at Very
Sticking with Mario for a moment, Nintendo has a Super Mario Party + Joy-Cons bundle that represents a $39.98 saving. The MRRP on a pair of Joy-Cons is $79.99, so you get the game download for $22, not a spectacular deal, but it could be worth it if you're looking for an extra pair of controllers.
- Super Mario Party + Red & Blue Joy-Cons: $99 at Amazon and Nintendo
Once you've chosen you're Switch Cyber Monday deal, I recommend checking out our article on Nintendo Switch tips and tricks, but there are a lot of things you can do with the console that people take ages to discover (or never discover!). This includes how to save battery life, how to remap buttons on the Joy-Cons, and even how to find misplaced Joy-Cons. There are plenty of tricks that can help you customise your Switch or improve how you use the console.
There's another great bundle deal on the Nintendo Switch OLED model, and for $349.99 at Walmart you can get the OLED Switch console, plus a download of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, plus a 3-month subscription to Nintendo Online which offers online gaming and cloud saves.
In total, this deal will save you approximately $70, when you consider that the Nintendo Switch OLED usually retails for $349.99 on its own. So with Smash Bros thrown in (which is $59.99 individually) and 3 months of Nintendo Online (which has a $12 value) this deal is a winner if you've been waiting to buy an OLED.
Did you know that there are other kinds of Nintendo Switch docking stations? Some are as compact as a singular cable, and do the same job of connecting your console to the TV, but not all of them will charge your Switch at the same time. If you need a pocket-sized dock as a spare or to take over to a friend's house then see our guide to the best Nintendo Switch docks.
It's gone midnight in the UK, so it's officially Cyber Monday, but it seems nobody's told Nintendo. It's still running with the Black Friday label at its UK online store, and I suspect it will all day.
Here are a couple of its Black Friday Switch OLED bundle deals that are still live. Both include Super Mario Odyssey and both cost the same price. But one gets you the Super Mario Edition red console and a case and the other deal is on the standard blue/red console but with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and 3 months' Switch online membership.
- Switch OLED Red Mario Edition + SM Odyssey + case:
£359.98£343.28 at Nintendo - Switch OLED blue/red + SM Odyssey + Mario Kart 8 + membership:
£359.98£343.28 at Nintendo
Here's another Black Friday on Cyber Monday deal that's popped up in the UK on Very. And I mean popped up; this wasn't there before! It's another option to consider if you want to get the original Switch with Super Mario Bros. Wonder. This time the additional game is Sonic Superstars. The price is £20 more than the same package with Nick Karts 3 Slime Speedway which we mentioned earlier, which is logical since Sonic Superstars is a more expensive second game for them to include.
- Switch + Super Mario Bros. Wonder + Sonic Superstars:
£349£299 at Very
And another, this time at Argos. There's £10 off the Nintendo Switch Lite. We'd already seen a couple of small savings on the cheapest Switch console at Amazon, but this is the first time this weekend that we've found a direct saving (albeit a small one) across every colour. But better still (if you're an Animal Crossing fan), Argos also has the new special edition Nintendo Switch Lite Animal Crossing Bundles going for £189.99. That get's you a game included for £10 less than the usual price of the console alone.
The special edition consoles feature a leaf pattern on the back and come with Animal Crossing: New Horizons pre-installed.
- Switch Lite (standard 4 colours):
£199.99£189.99 at Argos - New Switch Lite Animal Crossing Bundle coral: £189 at Argos
- Switch Lite Animal Crossing Bundle turquoise: £189 at Argos
And one more! Game now has another Switch OLED bundle deal on the market, just to make it more difficult to choose which to go for. Here you get Nintendo Switch OLED Mario Kart Edition, Super Mario Bros. Wonder and 3 months of online membership.
- Switch OLED + Mario Kart + Super Mario Bros. Wonder + 3 months of online membership:
£359.98£329.99 at Game
I'm taking a break from our Nintendo Switch Cyber Monday blog now, but we'll be back tomorrow to check and report on what deals are left, if any. I've just updated the deals above with the new bundles that I found, so the prices are all correct at the time of signing off.
To recap, the best direct savings on the Switch OLED console alone remain $349.99 $285.99 at Walmart in the US and the £309 £279 at Asda, but there are also plenty of good Bundle deals about as we've highlighted above (and in our live reports below). Happy hunting!
And another hello on another early morn! How's it going deal hunters?!
If you've not yet found your ideal Switch deal this Black Friday week, fear not – Cyber Monday is upon us, and if previous years are anything to go by, today is just as important for tech deals as Friday. Many retailers stagger their discounted stock release, rising the price of choice goods (like the Switch) over the Saturday and Sunday, and then reducing yet again for Cyber Monday.
From my point of view, it's too early to say if this is the case this year, as it's still dark out in the UK, and the US is going (already gone) to bed. But I reckon we'll know more soon for the UK, and the US will follow.
I'll keep my eyes peeled!
If you've got a console, you'll be wanting to have some games to play on it. And right now, Super Mario Wonder looks to be a great option – especially when you can get a tenner off the price over at Very. It's down from £49.99 to £39.99.
Talking of games, another cracking deal seems to be on EA Sports FC 24 right now. It's down from £54.99 to £29.99 over at Amazon.
Happy Cyber Monday! It's Ian here, I'm taking over this morning to bring you the latest Switch deals and Nintendo bargains I can find.
Personally, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is one of the best games ever made, so if you've yet to pick up a Switch it's worth looking for deals that include this game. I've listed the best ones for the UK below:
Nintendo Switch Neon + Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: £309.99 £269 at Very
Nintendo Switch OLED + The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: £329 at Currys
Some of the best offers today are on bundles, and Smyths Toys has some of the best. Whether you want a new Switch OLED or a Neon Switch they have them, bundled with games and accessories.
One of the best is the Nintendo Switch OLED Neon: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + Nintendo Switch Online 3 month sub for £299.99. This is less than found on the Nintendo Store. It's also worth noting there are loads of free games to download with a Switch Online sub, including Nintendo classics.
It can be hard to pick apart what is and isn't a good deal. The easiest thing is to note what the official Nintendo bundles are selling for and compare - for example a basic Switch OLED will cost you £299 in the sale, so the deal above with the brilliant Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a genuinely good value.
While I look for more Switch deals to drop, my eye has been caught by a deal to get 16% off the Kirby themed Otamatone Deluxe, one of Japan's best-selling musical instruments, at Amazon. This weird instrument was all over social media this summer, a touch-sensitive synth it has the bonus of making music from Kirby's mouth.
Otamatone's Deluxe Kirby Japanese Electronic Musical Instrument: £99.99 £83.99
Looking for an impulse buy to gift a friend or relative? You're in luck, there are price-drops on many Nintendo goodies, including new toys based on the smash hit movie from earlier this year; this Cyber Monday ideal for Christmas stocking fillers or just a treat for yourself. Below I've listed some of the eye-catching deals I've spotted so far today, with money off Mario toys.
Nintendo Mario vs. Bowser Lava Battle playset: £29.99 £21.99
Super Mario Deluxe Bowser Battle Playset with Lights & Sounds: £49.99 £42.99
Nintendo Super Mario Movie Bowser figure: £34.99 £24.99
Nintendo Super Mario Movie, Mario figure: £24.99 £14.99
Nintendo Super Mario Movie, Toad figure: £24.99 £17.95
Nintendo Super Mario Movie, Princess Peach figure: £24.99 £19.99
Lego games and Nintendo Switch are a great match, there's nothing quite as relaxing as waddling through some of the most-loved worlds from film and comics collecting those pinging Studs and unlocking a cast of lovable characters.
Whether it's Jurassic Park, Marvel or Star Wars, there's a Lege game on Switch for you - and most of them are going very cheap this Cyber Monday. I've listed my favourite Lego games for Switch on sale right now:
LEGO Jurassic World: £24.99 £10.89
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2: £19.99 £11.59
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: £24.99 £12.49
The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame: £34.99 £17.89
LEGO Harry Potter Collection: £19.99 £13.99
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Classic Character Edition: £34.99 £25.99
Don't sleep on Nintendo Switch Lite. Sure, the new Switch OLED is the best Nintendo console, but if you want an affordable handheld console for less the Lite model is a bargain. It can play all Nintendo games, it just digital only and has the older display.
My pick would be the Switch Lite with Animal Crossing for £199 at Smyths Toys at various online stores - Animal Crossing's casual, social approach to gaming is ideal for the Lite. The Switch Lite usually sells for £199 on its own, and up to £249 in some places, so this is a good deal.
Nintendo Switch Lite + Animal Crossing: £199 at Smyths Toys
Nintendo Switch Lite + Animal Crossing Isabelle Aloha Edition: £199 at Amazon
I love buying extra controllers for my Switch and collecting these nifty game pads; some of the best for me are the classic game controllers particularly as I love playing the older retro games on Switch. Below are some of the best deals on the retro Switch controllers I've had my eye on for months now.
8Bitdo Pro USB Controller, Grey Edition: £24.99 £20.61
8Bitdo Pro Bluetooth Controller, Jade Green: £44.99 £35.99
Nintendo Entertainment System Controllers: £99.99 £89.99
GameCube Controller - Super Smash Bros. Edition: £74.99 £70.39
Whether you're getting a new Nintendo Switch in the Cyber Monday sales or already own one, you will need a microSD memory card. These can be expensive so today is a really good time to pick up a new one so you needn't delete any game downloads or saves.
I really like the Zelda branded SanDisk card, but it's more expensive than the standard 1TB card from the same manufacturer. How much you love Zelda will determine if this is a good deal - but it's also a neat present for a Zelda fan in your life. Below are the best memory card deals for Nintendo Switch I've found today:
SanDisk 128GB microSDXC: £27.76 £13.69
Kingston SDCG3/128GB micro SD Card: £17.99 £13.80
SanDisk 1TB Extreme microSDXC card + SD adapter + RescuePRO Deluxe:
£284.99 £94.99
Argos has one of my favourite deals on Cyber Monday, which is a classic Neon Nintendo Switch with Nintendo Sports and a subscription to Nintendo Online, for £249.99 (£5 less than the same bundle at Very).
Why? Well Nintendo Sports is one of the best multiplayer games on Nintendo's console and has enough mini-games for all ages and abilities. I remember playing the original Wii Sports with the family on Christmas Day and Nintendo Sports could offer the same fun.
Switch + Switch Sports + 3 Months Online Membership: £249.99 at Argos
Switch + Switch Sports + 3 Months Online Membership: £259 at Very
Switch + Switch Sports + 3 Months Online Membership: £259.99 at John Lewis
Let's get real now. I don't get some of the Switch accessories that you can buy at the moment, and the same ones always turn up in sales. You know, those weird bits of plastic shaped like small golf clubs and tiny tennis rackets. I'm just not convinced these are worth your time, or maybe I'm just a Ninty Scrooge.
We have a list of the best Nintendo Switch accessories for some ideas of what's around for this handheld console. Instead of being sucked into the deal for the weird plastic sports accessories, I've found some actual Nintendo Switch accessory deals I like, and would actually use.

Okay, it's not in the Cyber Monday sale, but there are different prices floating around for the HORI Nintendo Switch Split Pad Pro Controller. This controller is suited to people with larger hands or like the feel and button placement of a more traditional game controller.
The RRP of the HORI Nintendo Switch Split Pad Pro Controller is $49.99 and there are some small offers around, which take up to £5 off the price - whoop! If you want the slightly smaller HORI Split Pad, and with Pokémon branding, then there is a deal at Curry's too, again it's a slight £5 off.
HORI Nintendo Switch Split Pad Pro Controller (Black): £49.99 £44.99
HORI Nintendo Switch Split Pad Pro Controller (Red): £49.99 £47.59

For a bundle that packs a punch, Game's mega Switch OLED bundle is the perfect pack for Mario fans. The set comes with the Nintendo Switch OLED Mario Kart Edition (which includes a free download of the game), Super Mario Bros. Wonder and a 3-month Nintendo Online membership. It might not be the mightiest saving, but if you're after a Switch that's set for gaming, this one's for you.
Nintendo Switch OLED + Super Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + Super Mario Bros Wonder + membership: £359.98 £329.99 at Game
If you're still undecided, it can be hard to choose between the Switch and its dinky cousin the Switch Lite. While both consoles are great in their own ways, it can be tough to judge which best fits you and your play style.
Take a look at our Switch vs Switch Lite comparison guide, to help you make that all-important decision.
Let's get back to the basics. The Switch OLED is still staying firm at £279 for UK buyers and $285.99 for our friends in the US. Black Friday hasn't given us the best deals this year, but there's still a humble saving to be had if you want in on the action.
Nintendo Switch OLED: £309 £279 at Asda
Nintendo Switch OLED: $349.99 $285.99 at Walmart
Mario Kart (in all its forms) has to be one of my favourite games and back in the days when Mario Kart Wii was still cool, I refused to play without a wheel. Perhaps deep inside I truly believed that it improved my play, or was it just the appeal of extra style points? Who knows, but if you believe in the superior power of the Mario Kart wheel, you can get the updated Joy-Con version for a neat little discount.
Rocketfish Joy-Con Racing Wheel Two Pack: $10 $5.99 at Best Buy
The Switch's Joy-Con controllers can leave people a little divided. If you're not a fan of the dinky controls, you might want to consider getting a chunkier alternative. The Nitro Deck is a Switch controller that allows you to play with a more ergonomic grip without sacrificing immersive rumble and motion features.
Nitro Deck: $59.99 $49.99 at Amazon
A new Switch console could be coming soon and fans are wondering what it might look like. There have been a number of concept art predictions but the most compelling is the dual-screen Switch design that seems to take cues from its prehistoric cousin, the Nintendo DS.
So, could the next Nintendo Switch have two screens or are we just letting nostalgia get the better of us?
If you're an Animal Crossing fan, you can't go wrong with the Switch Lite Animal Crossing edition. The custom consoles feature a leafy pattern and come in coral (for the Isabelle fans) and turquoise (for Tom Nook lovers). The custom Switch consoles come with an Animal Crossing: New Horizons download, so you're set to meet your new animal pals.
Nintendo Switch Lite Animal Crossing Bundle: £189.99 at Argos
Hello, Creative Bloq's deputy editor, Rosie Hilder, here. I'm taking over from Natalie to keep this blog up to date with all the hottest Switch deals, as and when they come in.
First up, is this Hori Split Pad Pro, which is reduced by $10 at Best Buy, taking it down to $39.99. This Joy-Con alternative doesn't often drop below $45 so this is a deal to jump on if you've got your eye on it. The reviewers over at Best Buy seem to think it's worth it, and many are saying it's more comfortable than Joy-Cons. We'll take that!
What's your dream Switch deal? The one bundle you'd really love to see? Let us know on X or Facebook? Who knows, we might even be able to find it for you...
If you haven't read up on all the latest Nintendo Switch 2 rumours, be sure to take a look – it sounds like we're in for a treat in (hopefully) 2024.
I have to say that this Super Smash Bros. Switch OLED bundle is probably still my favourite deal of the holiday season. For $349 at Best Buy,you can get the OLED Switch console, plus a download of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, plus a 3-month subscription to Nintendo Online which offers online gaming and cloud saves.
To put this price into perspective for you, the Nintendo Switch OLED usually retails for $349.99 on its own. So with Smash Bros thrown in ($59.99 individually) and 3 months of Nintendo Online (which has a $12 value) this deal is a winner if you've been waiting to buy an OLED as you're pretty much just paying the standard price of an OLED model but with bonus goodies.

We've given you a lot of Switch deals today, but are you prepared to actually own one? That might sound like a silly question, but there are plenty of things people don't know about the Nintendo Switch, and here are 7 important things I think you should be aware of and consider before you take the plunge and make a Nintendo Switch purchase this Cyber Monday. You'll thank me later.
As Cyber Monday is slowly coming to a close here in the UK, we're sadly seeing a lot of great game deals fall back to their original prices. I picked out the 6 Black Friday Nintendo Switch games that I had in my basket, most of which have now reverted to their original prices (so It's a good job I bought them when I did!).
Here's your friendly reminder to check what's left in your digital baskets and make any final purchases before midnight in the UK to ensure you save money – but only if the deal is worth grabbing, as we're confident that prices can and will still fall up until Christmas, but probably not to the same extent as Black Friday/Cyber Monday savings.
Speaking of Switch game deals, these ones are still live in the US right now and have up to 75% off! The prices may have fluctuated a little since we first discovered them, but any discount on the retail price is a win if you're looking to save money.
• Pssst, do you own a PS5 too? There are also some HUGE savings on PlayStation 5 games right now that you won't want to miss out on.
As there aren't any new console deals to report, let's take a look at some accessories. We've found the best weird and wonderful Nintendo Switch accessories over the last few days that will immediately make you say " I need it" or "Just, why?".
This deal is a perfect example, it's a Switch toaster. Yepp. A toaster for your switch cartridges. Absolutely nobody asked for this but it's just a bit of fun, and for only $8.99 $6.74 right now on Amazon.
Next up we have the perfect Switch stand for any Adventure Time fans out there, as this BMO Switch console dock has to be my favourite Switch accessory by far. It won't charge your console, but it does hold it perfectly in place to make it seem like you're playing tabletop mode on an actual BMO console.
Did I mention it comes in Pink and Orange too? The BMO Switch stand is currently $34.98 $23.09 at Amazon with a cooling fan built into it. But you can also get it in the UK for £21.10 at Amazon – with a 20% voucher applied at checkout.
If you're looking for something to spruce up your Kawaii game room aesthetic, or if you're just a chronic Adventure Time fan like me, this deal is definitely worth it.
Continuing on with the adorable accessories hunt, we have a fluffy shark case for the Nintendo Switch OLED which everyone needs to see. It's only $14.99 on Amazon too if you want it (I definitely do!).
If Joy-Cons just aren't cutting it and you want an affordable Pro controller instead, might we suggest the PowerA Wireless Gaming Controller – Legend of Zelda edition of course.
Compatible with the Original Switch and OLED models, this controller is certified by Nintendo and perfect if you find those dinky Joy-Cons a little fiddly. It's currently available for $44.99 $34.99 at Best Buy.
Love Pokémon? Me too! Snorlax is my fave and I feel like some of you would appreciate my Nintendo Switch case because it's the best (see above). The temptation to play something is strong right now, but I won't. Because I'm more dedicated to staying focused and finding you the very last Nintendo Switch Cyber Monday deals as we head into the late evening.
Anyway, if you want to get your own Snorlax Switch case, it's $16.99 $13.59 on Amazon right now with a Black Friday discount.
Cyber Monday is coming to a close here in the UK, and there has only been a couple of deals really worth your attention. The one from Asda is the current best – bringing the OLED version to £279 and saving you £40.99. It's only a few pounds over the lowest we've seen it. Slightly disappointing that there's no record low but it's not a horrendous situation.
I'm a bit disappointed there hasn't been a record-low in the UK, but there has been one in the US. Given we think the Switch will be upgraded next year, I expected more. And we haven't seen the flash sales we've seen before. So that's a shame.
What do you want to see from a new Switch console? There's talk of a bigger screen, faster processor, more storage, all the good stuff. But we just hope there's enough stock. We don't want a PS5 situation, thanks very much. Even though it's good for column inches.
For those still awake in the UK, there's a great bundle on MyNintendo where you can get a Nintendo Switch Lite console for £206.99 (which usually retails for £199) but with either a Tom Nook plush or an Isabelle one!!
These teddies could give Build-A-Bear a run for its money, they're so cute and would make an amazing Christmas gift for an Animal Crossing fan. Although saying that, they do look a little on the small side if the images are to scale with the size of a typical Switch Lite box, and the website doesn't offer any dimensions.
Either way, take a look for yourself but personally, I think this is one of the cutest Switch bundles I've seen for a while. I need Isabelle.
If you're looking for some creative Nintendo stocking fillers, we have a guide to the best festive gift ideas for creatives. We really rate the Lego Piranha Plant for anyone wanting a unique desk accessory, and there are options to suit every budget too.
I've owned my Nintendo Switch for about five years now, and it's by far my favourite console to relax and unwind with. As a Pokemon fan, one of the top games that I play regularly is Pokemon Legends: Arceus, but lately, I've gotten addicted to Disney Dreamlight Valley which is essentially Animal Crossing but with Disney Characters.
If this has piqued your interest then you can get the Disney Dreamlight Valley Cozy edition which is on sale right now for just $34.99 at Amazon down from $49.99. I highly recommend it if you like laidback games for harvesting crops and fishing your troubles away. It also has Pixar characters too.
Cyber Monday is over in the UK, or at least it's gone midnight. But I've checked through them, and all of the UK Nintendo Switch Cyber Monday deals that we've flagged above are still live. Hurrah! So what shall we call it? Tech Tuesday?
The best Switch OLED deal remains the Mario Kart bundle for £299 at Very and at Amazon.
Meanwhile, over in the US, most of Amazon's Cyber Monday Switch game deals have dried up. One of the few that are left is Just Dance 2024 reduced by 25% from $39.97 to $29.97. It's a perennially popular franchise, Just Dance. It's been running since 2009, when the first edition came our for the Wii.
Wondering what tracks came on that first version? Well there was MC Hammer, Elvis Presley, Iggy Pop, The Beach Boys, Baha Men, Spice Girls and Gorillaz and others. What a mix. The current version features tunes from the likes of Sub Urban, Rosalía, Miley Cyrus, SZA, Blackpink, Aurora. I'd take the 2009 version, but I'm old. Anyway, every year, it's always on sale by the time we get to Cyber Monday. It will probably be even cheaper in the January sales, but then you'd miss all that dance action over the holiday period if you wait until then.
But if you're still looking for Switch Cyber Monday game deals in the US, there's good news over at Nintendo's own online store. It's extended its 'Cyber Deals' until 3 December. That means there's still a whole week to get savings of up to 86%.
Which is the game with 86% off you're wondering? Erm, OlliOlli: Switch Stance (there may be others, but that's the biggest deal I've spotted, reduced from $14.99 to $1.99. It's a skateboarding-based platform that actually won a whole bunch of award nominations back a few years ago.
According to Amazon’s Most Wished For list, the most wished-for Nintendo Switch game this Cyber Monday is Super Mario Bros. Wonder. That doesn't surprise me at all. It's the first traditional side-scrolling Super Mario Game since Super Mario Bros U for the Wii U way back in 2012. That's an incredible 11 years ago! And with the Super Mario Movie released a few months ago, interest in our favourite plumber is as high as ever. It's no wonder that Wonder was one of the most anticipated games of the year.
The game allows us to play as one of 12 characters, including Peach, Daisy, Yoshi, Nabbit, Toad and Toadette and as well as Mario and Luigi. Mario even turns into an elephant.
Deals? No, 'fraid not. At least not on the game alone. It costs $59.99 everywhere (Amazon has a European version for $56.95 for a saving of all of $3)
There are a couple of bundle deals in the UK:
- Switch OLED + SMB Wonder + Mario Kart 8 + membership:
£359.98£329.99 at Game - Switch + SMB Wonder + Nick Karts 3 Slime:
£339£279 at Very
While we're on the topic of Mario, here's very different kind of Mario Cyber Monday deal. If you fancy some gaming of the more old-fashioned sort – a good old table-top game, Amazon has discounts of up to 44% on Epoch's Super Mario Adventure Game DX – multiplayer fun Game for all the family!
The game is like Tomy's Screwball Scramble (I'm really showing my age tonight, aren't I?). You have to guide a ball around a maze through 7 obstacles, including launching it over the Piranha Plant and a wall climb.
- Super Mario Adventure Game:
$39.99$22.49 at Amazon US - Super Mario Adventure Game:
£29.99£25 at Amazon UK
I'm taking a break from our Nintendo Switch Cyber Monday blog for tonight. The good news is that all of the deals above are still live as I sign off. For those looking for a console alone, no bundle. The best deals remain these savings on the OLED. Good night, and I hope we've been of help for those of you seeking the best Nintendo Switch deals this Cyber Monday!
