The Nintendo Switch is on sale with a 17% discount, that’s equivalent to $50 in savings. It may not look like much of a discount, but it’s rare to enjoy savings when buying this popular gaming console, so take advantage of this offer while it’s still available.

How to Choose a Nintendo Switch Deal on Cyber Monday

When the Nintendo Switch originally came out, there weren’t a lot of options; in fact, there wasn’t even an OLED model that you could buy with the upgraded screen. Nowadays, there’s been a boom in games and accessories, so there are a ton of options out there. When it comes to the Nintendo Switch itself, if you’re mostly going to be playing with it docked, then you should get the more affordable base model, but if you do plan to use it as a handheld console more, then the higher cost of the OLED model is really worth it.

When it comes to games, if you’re looking to not spend too much, then you can’t go wrong with the first-party Nintendo games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and so forth, so it’s worth looking at those to see which you like. As for accessories, a lot of that will depend on the sort of games you play, but it is worth grabbing a “full” controller, either from Nintendo or a third-party seller, since the Joy-Cons can be a bit difficult to use, especially for longer periods. There are also a couple of fun accessories that let you put the Joy-Cons inside them and use them that way, such as the wheel accessory, which is a lot of fun for racing games.

How We Chose These Nintendo Switch Cyber Monday Deals

Unfortunately, there aren’t a ton of great Nintendo Switch deals floating around these days, which means that we mostly have to rely on finding great deals for games and accessories. That said, there are some refurbished Nintendo Switch deals that we may add or remove based on how good we thing the deal is and whether it’s worth the offer. Other than that, we do our best to include a good selection of games and accessories so you can pick and match what works for your favorite type of gaming.

We also rely on our expertise as deal hunters and our tools to ensure you’re getting the best deal for the money you’re putting in. That way, you know that you’re buying with confidence and you won’t regret it.

Ubisoft has discounted Star Wars Outlaws across several different storefronts for this year's Cyber Monday, but the best deal on the game comes from Amazon. There, an Amazon exclusive Star Wars Outlaws - Limited Edition has seen a steep 43% discount, bringing its price down from $70 to just $40. At that price tag, and with all of the improvements Ubisoft has made to the game over the past few months, especially in title update 1.4, Star Wars Outlaws is worth checking out.

Don’t get a PS5 Pro for Cyber Monday. The regular PS5 is the better deal
A PS5 sits on a table with a DualSense standing up next to it.

We may be four years into a console generation, but this holiday shopping season is a big moment for players. There are new Xbox models out, the Meta Quest 3S, and the brand new PS5 Pro. You might be tempted to pick up those shiny new items this holiday season, but the hot new thing and the most practical deal aren't always the same thing.

Case in point: the PS5 Pro. If you don't have a PS5 and are looking to pull the trigger this holiday, you may feel pressured to go for what's billed as the most powerful version of Sony's system. Trust me when I say that that's not the way to go. Why spend $700 when you could get a regular PS5 Digital Edition for $375 instead during this year's Cyber Monday?

This is my must-buy Nintendo Switch game for Black Friday 2024
A red Pikmin looks around in Pikmin 4.

If there's one Switch game I can't recommend enough, it's Pikmin 4. The series expertly walks the tightrope between being a cute, whimsical adventure and a strategy game that needs serious planning to complete, exciting casual Switch players looking to hang out with some oddball little plant friends while keeping the attention of serious speedrunners and strategists. Whether you're seriously invested in saving the lives of the crashed spacecraft crew (more on that later) or you want to see how many little colorful buddies you can pluck out of the ground, Pikmin 4 is quite an adventure and one of the best games on Switch.

If you’re new to the Pikmin series, Pikmin 4 is an excellent place to start. It preserves the charm of its predecessors while refining the occasionally tricky control scheme and adjusting the story to be more accessible for newcomers. First-party title sales in the Nintendo Switch ecosystem are fairly rare — it’s not uncommon for them to remain at launch-day prices for years — so the Black Friday discount for this title is a blessing. You can  (a whopping 50% discount).
