I used to work at a secondhand game store where my life revolved around gaming, pop culture, energy drinks, and consoles – my favourite being the Nintendo Switch of course. Nothing much has changed, but it's safe to say that I know a thing or two about securing the best deals on gaming tech, and Black Friday has it all.
Rumour has it that a new Nintendo Switch console is on the horizon, which would mean we can anticipate big savings on the current-gen models. I'm delighted to report that these wishes have come true, as the Nintendo Switch OLED has an incredible price cut at Walmart – now just $299 which is the lowest price we've seen (see our live roundup of the best Nintendo Switch Cyber Monday deals for more details).

Is Black Friday a good time to buy a Nintendo Switch?
Black Friday is typically the biggest sales event of the year in the US, and it has spread to many other countries. So does that mean big Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals? Well, that may depend on where you are, and what your expections are. We don't tend to see massive deals on the Nintendo Switch at any time of the year, but what deals do come up tend to be concentrated around Black Friday.
Does Nintendo have Black Friday sales?
The Nintendo online store does sometimes have Black Friday deals in some countries. They're not always named as Black Friday, but it has previously offered discounts that coincide with the sales event. Often, the discounts are on games, but in the past we have also seen bundle deals timed to coincide with Black Friday, particularly in the UK.
How do I know if a deal is good?
It's worth bearing in mind Nintendo's recommend retail price for its three Nintendo Switch consoles to make sure that deal you see really is a deal. Sometimes we see retailers inflating the original price in order to claim that a subsequent reduction is a discount. Third party retailers on Walmart and Amazon are particularly guilty of this, and you sometimes see so-called Nintendo Switch Black Friday deals that are actually more expensive than the recommended retail price.
On this page, we'll only be highlighting genuine Nintendo Switch deals, but it may help you if you remember that the standard selling prices are as follows:
Nintendo Switch: $299.99 / £259.99
Nintendo Switch OLED: $349.99 / £309.99
Nintendo Switch Lite: $199.99 / £199.99
