Best October Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals still available: Last chance until Black Friday

The Nintendo Switch is a popular console, and for good reason. It lets you seamlessly flip between an on-the-go handheld mode to a traditional, TV-connected unit, meaning you don’t have to keep track of multiple consoles and game libraries when you want to keep yourself entertained on the go. Plus, with the OLED version, you’ll get better contrast, color, and detailing in handheld mode to better appreciate your favorite games.

Nintendo isn’t keen on offering discounts on its consoles and games, but with a little digging, you can still find great deals if you’re willing to be patient. While the Prime Big Deal Days sale may be over, you can still find great discounts on games and accessories, as well as console bundles with digital game codes or Nintendo Online memberships. And with how stingy Nintendo is with discounts in general, this may be your last chance to save until Black Friday.

When was Amazon Prime Big Deal Day 2024? 

Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, also known as Prime Day 2 or October Prime Day, ran from October 8 through the 9th. However, you can still find great deals on games, controllers, and console bundles on Amazon as well as at other retailers like Best Buy and Walmart.

Are Nintendo consoles and games really cheaper on Prime Day? 

While you may have to wait for the holiday shopping season to see any discounts on Switch consoles, it’s possible to find sales on accessories like extra controllers, as well as on Switch games. Game prices and discounts may differ between physical and digital versions, so be sure to double-check to make sure you’re getting the best deal.

How did we choose these Prime Day deals?

Since Nintendo deals, coupons, and sales are so rare, I’ve made sure to include every discounted console, accessory, and game available. I chose accessories that are either made and sold directly by Nintendo or are officially licensed to work with the Switch/Switch OLED. I also chose games that had received positive critical and player reviews to help both new and experienced gamers find quality titles to add to their library.
