Cheapest Nintendo Switch bundles in the US
Refurbished Nintendo Switch (Neon): was $300 now $269.99 at Best Buy
It's a slight discount on a refurbished model but it gets you $30 off the standard Nintendo Switch model which is one of the better prices we've seen this month.
Nintendo Switch (Neon): was $299.99 now $294.50 at Amazon
While not necessarily an incredible deal, this is one of the cheaper rates for the standard Nintendo Switch at under $300. It has been cheaper in the past, but it's still very much in stock and available in the US.
Nintendo Switch OLED Mario Red Edition: was $349.99 now $344.99 at Amazon
A fairly small saving for the Nintendo Switch OLED Mario Red Edition compared to its usual retail price. If you're after this particular color option, then this is a solid choice.
Nintendo Switch OLED: $349 at Amazon
Until recently, the Nintendo Switch OLED model was hard to come by in the US. Now the stock situation has seemingly resolved itself as you can pick the white version up for around MSRP at Amazon.

Cheapest Nintendo Switch bundles in the UK
Nintendo Switch + Animal Crossing New Horizons or Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: was £300 now £279.99 at Smyths Toys
Here's a great Nintendo Switch bundle that will kickstart your game collection with a choice between two of the best games available for the console. Discounts on Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are rare, so the chance to pick one up for £30 along with a console is a bargain.
Nintendo Switch OLED: £280 at Amazon
A small saving is available on the upgraded Nintendo Switch OLED model at Amazon. This isn't far off from the lowest price we've ever seen for the console by itself, so it's a pretty compelling option if you want a console for less.
Nintendo Switch OLED Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Edition: £319.99 at My Nintendo Store
The official Nintendo Store still has the Nintendo Switch OLED Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Edition available to buy. The console has sold out at many other retailers so there may not be many more opportunities to get one if you like the limited edition design.
Nintendo Switch + Nintendo Switch Sports Set: £259.99 at My Nintendo Store
While this bundle used to cost £300, and was discounted down to this figure in the past, this price is now the standard rate and gets you the awesome Nintendo Switch Sports for only £20 more than the cost of the console, saving you around £20 in the process.
Cheapest Nintendo Switch bundles and deals: FAQs
Where can I get the best Nintendo Switch deals?
Outside of special sales events, most of the big retailers in the US, the UK, and Australia will run discounts intermittently throughout the year. For the best and biggest savings, you're always better off waiting for the likes of Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday which take place in the summer and winter respectively.
Do I need to buy more Nintendo Switch controllers for multiplayer?
Possibly not! Remember how the Joy-Con controller splits in two? Turn them sideways and you get two basic controllers, each with its own analog stick and face buttons - the d-pad acts as face functions on the left controller. We've seen 2K's NBA series, Snipper Clips, FIFA 19, and Mario Kart being used this way for local multiplayer in both docked and tablet modes. So you get multiplayer functionality straight out of the box with no additional purchase required.
However, if you want to play four-player games, then you're going to need to invest in an extra pair of Joy-Con controllers or some Pro controllers. We'd buy the Joy-Con as a pair (see our comparison chart above) as you'll save a bit of cash over buying them separately. Better yet, if your friends own a Nintendo Switch, ask them to bring their controllers to the party!
