Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals are out in full force today – but I’d head straight to these 15 discounts before stock runs out

Should you buy a Nintendo Switch this Cyber Monday?

There’s still a good supply of Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch OLED bundles on the shelves today – though you’re pretty limited to Walmart’s collection at the moment – but should you even grab a console right now? After all, the Nintendo Switch 2 is on the horizon – promising boosted performance, its own games, and backwards compatibility with the current roster of releases. I would still recommend buying a Nintendo Switch this Cyber Monday if you want to spend as little as possible and still play through Ninty’s existing catalog. If this is your first Switch, there are still so many titles out there for you to experience – and the Switch 2 will likely be a step up even from that $349.99 MSRP of the Switch OLED. Considering analysts put the next console’s launch price at between $400 and $500, this could be the cheapest way to play for a while.

However, if you already have a standard edition or Lite console and you want to upgrade – I might recommend holding off. Yes, the new device will be more expensive, but holding off for a few more months until we at least know more will mean you have $250 / $300 in your pocket to go towards that cost. If you’ve already played the current generation of games (and have a way to continue playing them until we hear more Switch 2 news), it’s better to stick it out for just a little longer.

Some stock is starting to disappear!

I’ve already seen the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller and Joy-Con jump back up to full price at Best Buy this morning, but thankfully Walmart is here to keep those prices low. You’ll still find both gamepads available with record-breaking discounts on these shelves, but the fact that Best Buy has dropped out of the race at all is still concerning. It shows that these items are being grabbed off the shelves particularly fast – and now that Walmart is the only retailer (that I’ve seen) offering these prices, things are going to move even quicker.

Nintendo Switch Pro controller | $69.99 $49 at Walmart

Joy-Con L/R red and blue | $79.99 $59 at Walmart
