LIVE: Nintendo Switch 2 gets price cut for Cyber Monday! One day left to shop
I'm tracking Nintendo Switch prices, and there are some deals on the Switch 2, bundles and awesome game discounts.
Welcome Nintendo fans to Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals on the last day of this huge sales event. We've seen some great UK deals, including £60 off this Switch 2 bundle at Very – it's now £439. And there are some standalone Switch 2 console deals, too – though they're quite small.
In the US, things are quieter on the Switch 2 front, but you can get a nice OLED bundle with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + Sentriq Racing Wheel at just $379 at Walmart. In both regions, you can also nab yourself some brilliantly discounted games and accessories, of course.
We've been here all weekend (for the 7th Black Friday in a row) so we've got an excellent handle on how things are going. Stay with us for expert commentary, tidbits, enthusiasm and more. See our Switch games roundup for more Cyber Monday offers.

This offer includes Mario Kart 8, a Sentriq Racing Wheel and two Joy Con attachments. It's a Japanese import, but that won't make any difference to the playing experience.

Save on the new Switch 2 plus two Joy-Con Racing wheels. A deal is rare on this product so this isn't a bad shout.

This initially released in September 2024 and pits the worlds of Marvel with – you got it – Capcom. It has a score of 87% on Metacritic, and at $15 it's an absolute steal.

Another high scoring game on Metacritic (81%), this Ubisoft semi-open world game is one for Star Wars fans, and the (sometimes repetitive) game play of Ubisoft.

A massive saving on the second game to feature Shadow the Hedgehog. This came out this year too, so it's a great deal.

I'm not a football gamer, and some reports have mentioned this game running 'clunky' on the Switch 2, but if you're a fan, this may be a good deal... but do your research on the performance issues before buying.

Here's another big IP that's been resized for Switch 2. Good news for Borderlands fans, but be aware, although the game gets a high 81% on Metacritic, there are Reddit reports that the game has its bugs on Switch 2.

A more modest saving here, but one on a beloved franchise, and a game perfectly suited to the handheld gaming world. I always thought Pac-Man was a little creepy, and the film is better than the game, but whatevs.

This is a 2022 game that was a huge hit when it came out, and it's got a huge discount on it for Cyber Monday weekend. I personally think Sonic is creepy and the film is better than..., etc, etc.

Oooh, I love this game! You play as Aloy exploring a colourful, nature-reclaimed world, battling robot creatures, solving puzzles, and customising your village. Think exploration, combat, and classic LEGO humour. Can be played solo or in two-player co-op.

Mario and the Rabbids team up to solve puzzles and battle enemies using turn-based strategy. The first game is more classic and grid-based, while the second is freer, faster, and more expansive.

Fancy a party-style sports game? This is for you! Follow Mario and Sonic as they compete in Olympic events. You can race, swim, skate, surf, climb in both modern 3D and retro 2D events. Great for multiplayer sessions.

Good to see some god-honest hack and slash games represented here. I've not played this one, but it's my kind of genre, and this is made specifically for the Switch 2, so should play like a dream.

A sweet little action-RPG, this. Set in the newly reimagined Lumiose City. You explore open areas, encounter Pokémon in real time, and uncover a story involving urban redevelopment... it, err, plays better then it sounds.

EA Sports FC 26 on Switch 2 delivers a football sim with realistic gameplay. Nintendo promises enhanced animations, smarter AI. Pity I don't like football or football games.

The first small savings are here on the Switch 2 Pro Controller, which a lot of people find more comfortable than the Joy-Cons for long gaming sessions thanks to its larger size and smoother analog sticks with more travel.

The same number, in blue, has a Cyber Monday deal on in the US, with a rather staggering $20 off. It's got detachable faceplates too, so you can buy and swap out the faceplates for something even cooler. Our Tech Reviews Editor has this model, and he loves it.

But how do you choose a deal? Our expertise, of course, but also consider the following advice.
Start by deciding which version of the Nintendo Switch suits you, or whoever you’re buying for. You don't need to focus on the Switch 2 if you're on a budget.
The OLED model, with its brighter screen and better handheld experience, is perfect for players who’ll use it on the go or share it around the family.
The standard Switch offers the best balance between handheld and docked play, while the Switch Lite is a brilliant budget option for kids or solo handheld gaming. Knowing the model you want helps you filter out flashy bundles that don't give you what you actually want.
Once you’re looking at deals, don’t get distracted by a big “bundle” label. The smartest approach is to compare the value inside the package, not just the price on the screen. Add up the real cost of the console, any included games, and accessories, and ignore inflated RRPs shops sometimes use to make discounts look bigger.
Meaningful savings are usually £20–£50 or more, especially if a bundle includes a top Nintendo title like Mario Kart, Zelda, or Animal Crossing. These first-party games hold their value and rarely see big discounts, so their presence often signals an actual bargain.
It’s also worth paying attention to the extras. For digital gamers, Black Friday is a great time to grab a discounted microSD card, which can be just as valuable as a price drop on a game. On the other hand, be wary of bundles padded with cheap cases or unlicensed controllers, they’re sometimes added to justify a higher price but don’t offer real benefit.

Or there's this option from GameStop, which is on a white OLED under $200.
If you don't want to spend tons of money on a new Switch, there are plenty of refurbished options out there. These are usually Switch consoles that have been retruned, thoroughly checked and given the TLC they need to get them up to standard. Often they come with guarantees as well. Try this one on Amazon:
- Nintendo Switch OLED renewed:
$339$239 at Amazon
This is such a cool controller, and it's currently got a discount at Amazon. The Turtle Beach Pro A controller is now $49.99, reduced by 17%.
The next surprisingly useful accessory is a set of Joy-Con grips. Because the controllers are small, you'd think they wouldn't be necessary. But after a few hours your hand can cramp, and why should that stop you from playing?
The grips add just enough bulk to make the controllers feel more substantial without changing the way they handle. The buttons feel more accessible, and you can play for longer without getting sore.
You can get grips for $8.49 today at Amazon with a Cyber Monday deal.
Given some of the console deals are thin on the ground, I think it's the perfect opportunity to invest in some of the extras that make game play so much more enjoyable. Some of these are obvious fun, but others seem dull – but make a big difference.
So what would my top accessory recommendation be?
While Joy-Cons are fun, the Pro Controller is more comfortable, precise and has way better battery life. It supports wireless play and motion controls, making playing the Switch easier and more enjoyable. And it is much less likely to suffer from stick drift. It's got a small $5 discount.
Is it really worth upgrading to the Switch 2? Let's break it down...
If you want to make the jump from the OG Switch, the 2 is going to feel like a major upgrade. Boasting improved resolution, speed, Joy-Con reliability and a bigger screen, it's 100% worth the upgrade if you can.
For proud owners of the dinky Switch Lite, an upgrade to the 2 will unlock a bigger screen, the ability to connect to your TV and general performance/feature upgrades. (Note you'll sacrifice the portability and more affordable price of the humble Lite.)
But what if you've got an OLED? While it must be said the OLED boasts some gorgeous graphics thanks to its elite pure black levels, the Switch 2 is also praised for it's stunning display. With better performance, 4K docked output and 1080p handheld resolution, the pros outweigh the cons.
Allow me a second to yap about one of my favourite Switch games, Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
Yeah, it might be an oldie, but in my humble opinion, it's one of the best Switch games, especially for the cosy colder months. At my peak, I had a camp of only the most glam villagers and lost endless precious hours of my life fishing for a Barreleye (top tip, they only appear after 9 pm... if they appear at all).
You can currently get Animal Crossing: New Horizons for $59.99 $52.50 at Walmart – a humble but appreciated saving.
When looking to upgrade your console, don't neglect renewed tech. Each model is carefully quality checked to ensure that it's up to scratch, and often the retailer will have a watertight warranty in case things go south. Sure, there might be a few cosmetic errors, but it's what's inside that counts, right?

Let's talk accessories...
The Switch is renowned for its portability, but that comes at the cost of comfort. Those pesky little Joy-Cons aren't exactly the most ergonomic, so if you're looking for an alternative that offers you peak comfort, the Switch Pro controller is a great option.
Designed for extended play, the long-lasting battery and premium build make the Pro controller a breeze to handle. Akin to the traditional gaming controllers of the PlayStation/Xbox, the design boasts superior built-in gyro motion controls, as well as immersive haptic feedback.

Let's face it, Switch deals have been a little... tepid this year, but that doesn't mean you can't get some savings this Cyber Monday. For the best value, I'd recommend bagging yourself a bundle deal. Switch games aren't cheap on their own, so bundles are a great way to save some cash. (Also Switch + Game = instant play)
If you're after some juicy savings, games are where it's at. For a curated selection of the best offers, check out our picks for the Switch game deals, but if you want my advice, these are the ones to bag.
If it's Switch 2 deals you want, you're only in luck if you're in the UK I'm afraid. The US is looking very quiet indeed. But you can get a couple of very good bundle deals in the UK – plus a small discount on the console itself.
