The Nintendo Switch is a runaway success, now sitting at number three in the list of all-time best-selling consoles. Some of the most popular games of the last five years have exclusive homes on the Nintendo Switch, and unlike Nintendo consoles of yore, first-party NIntendo Switch game deals are fairly commonplace.

What to Look for in Nintendo Switch Deals
By far the most common Nintendo Switch deals we see are on smaller games. Games like Harvestella, for example, are perpetually on sale, but there are lots of times to save on some of the best Indies on Nintendo Switch. In fact, I’d say the best chances to find deals are on those indie games, and since they’re often pretty inexpensive anway, you can load up with Switch storage with great games for not a lot of money.
The most popular Nintendo Switch deals have to be on first-party games, however. Several times a year, Nintendo will have deals on games like Breath of the Wild, Luigi’s Mansion 3, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and more first-party Switch games, offering them up for $39.99 (or less).
The most common time to see these big savings on Nintendo Switch games happen during Black Friday and Nintendo’s annual eShop sale in the early summer. If there’s a first-party Nintendo game you want, and you’re willing to wait, you can almost certainly snatch it up for $39.99 at some point over the course of the year.
Nintendo Switch Console Sales
The Nintendo Switch itself rarely sees price drops. In fact, I can’t think of a legitimate time when we saw one. However, Nintendo skirts this by offering up bundle deals, usually with a game download included.
The Mario Choose One bundle lets you pick from Mario Kart 8, New Super Mario Bros. U, or Mario Odyssey, and it comes with a pair of “Mario Red” Joy-con. As far as a deal goes, it’s currently the best around on Switch, but you’re just getting a free game.
Black Friday is when Nintendo brings out its old faithful Nintendo Switch Bundle, the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Nintendo Switch bundle. In recent years, Nintendo’s added a subscription to Nintendo Switch Online. Nintendo Switch Online offers online play for games like Splatoon 3, as well as access to a selection of NES, Super NES and now original Game Boy games.
