It’s still a long way off, with Cyber Monday 2023 not arriving until 27 November, just a few days after Black Friday on 24 November. Deals should start long before that though, likely in early November, and usually run until the end of what retailers have taken to calling ‘Cyber Week’, so some savings may even stick around into the beginning of December. It’s not just the Switch itself that gets discounted – you’ll also find discounts across games, accessories, and bundles that often include all three. Watch out for deals on the regular Switch, as well as the cheaper Switch Lite and premium Switch OLED. You may have to act fast though. Some of the best deals we see on Black Friday every year sell out over the weekend, and some Cyber Monday discounts don’t last long either.

Switch discounts: What to look for
Don’t get your hopes up for massive savings on the Switch. Blame the console’s popularity for that – people are willing to pay full-price all year round, so retailers have less incentive to discount it than they might with other products. Quite simply, the stock moves itself. Was: $5 Now: $4.50 (10% off) Was: $59.99 Now: $39.97 ($20 off) Was: $59.99 Now: $34.95 ($25 off) Was: $59.95 Now: $49.99 ($10 off) Was: $59.99 Now: $49.99 ($10 off with free copy of Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle) Was: $43.99 Now: $29.88 (32% off)
Now: £309.99
Was: £234.98
Now: £215.99 (£19 off)
If you like to download games from the Nintendo Store, this combination of a turquoise Switch Lite and a Nintendo-themed 128GB SanDisk microSD card for only a little more than the official price of the console alone should appeal to you. Was: £49.99 Now: £36.99 (£13 off) Was: £49.99 Now: £40 (£9.99 off) Was: £49.99 Now: £36.99 (£13 off) Was: £34.99 Now: £18.99 (46% off) If you want extra Switch storage at a great price, this 128GB Mario-themed microSD card is fantastic value at only £18.99. Was: £199 Now: £195 (£4 off) It’s hardly a huge saving, but if you know you want to buy the Switch Lite on its own then right now this is the cheapest you’ll find it in the UK. Was: £309 Now: £279 (£30 off) Was: £369 Now: £349 (£20 off) The Switch OLED is also still new enough that really big savings are unlikely, though the older Switch and Switch Lite should pop up more often in sales. Still, there are discounts around if you know where to look. The consoles themselves won’t get massive reductions – usually not by more than $20/£20 – but a better bet is bundles, which offer the console alongside a game or extra accessories. Switch games can cost $60/£50 or more, so the saving if you buy a bundle can be much more than the discount on the Switch on its own. And even if you don’t want all of the games in the bundle, you could always sell or trade in those games afterwards. We have some tips on how and where to do that here. There are plenty of brilliant Switch games available, but our pick of the best include Animal Crossing, Metroid Dread and Super Smash Bros Ultimate, so deals on Switch bundles that include those are among the best. Check out our round-up of the best Nintendo Switch games for more. For people who already own a Switch, you’ll find some discounts on individual games, too, and we’re collecting a few of those when we find them too. Accessories are also a great option. The price of extra controllers was one of the big gripes a lot of people had with the console at launch, so we’ve seen offers trying to shift stock of controllers and other accessories including carry cases. Also, remember that the Switch uses microSD cards for expandable storage and USB-C for power – there are loads of great offers on memory cards and portable power banks, so we’d definitely recommend looking now if you’re thinking of expanding your storage or grabbing a battery pack. You should also take a look at auction sites like eBay, and second-hand sites like musicMagpie in the UK and Decluttr in the US that sell refurbished tech.
