How to get the best Nintendo Switch bundle deals in 2023?
Amazon and Best Buy are pretty good starting points for your Nintendo Switch bundle Black Friday deals, of course. However, don’t forget that the Nintendo Store will have plenty of options, as well GameStop. Our guide will have all the deals from these retailers in one place so finding the best one for you should be a breeze.
Console model
As of the time of writing, there are now three specific models of Nintendo Switch – the standard, the Lite and the OLED Model. Each one has its own features and drawbacks – for example, the Lite is perpetually handheld, but can’t be docked. The OLED has a brighter screen, but is slightly more expensive. Make sure you’re happy with which console comes in your bundle.
Games
There may be a lot of choices when it comes to games in the bundle. Speaking broadly, Nintendo first party games such as Splatoon 3 are regularly excellent, but it’s likely you’ll get fewer of them.
While third party games may vary in quality more, you’re likely to get more of them thrown in the package. It’ll be up to you what you prefer – and bear in mind the cost of the games after you’ve bought your system.
Special Edition console bundles
Be aware that some special edition “bundles” actually come with specially designed versions of the Nintendo Switch console themed around the game. Naturally, they don’t make any functional difference to how the console operates, but it does make you stand out in the crowd. Be wary though, as a select few of these special edition consoles don’t actually have the game included. So make sure to check the description first.
