Update: Woot is now offering the Nintendo Switch OLED console (Japanese Model) for $299.99 shipped. That’s $50 off and the best price we have tracked for Prime Day 2023 yet. “Units will arrive with packaging and documentation primarily in Japanese. However, units will function perfectly in the U.S., once preferred region and language have been selected during set up. (In a nutshell, Nintendo is NOTregion locked).”
Update: Joining the ongoing OLED model deal below, Amazon is now offering a bonus $25 credit on the standard issue Nintendo Switch right now. You can land the Nintendo Switch with Neon Blue and Red Joy‑Con with a $25 Amazon credit for $299.99 shipped when you apply code NSO25 at checkout.
As part of its Walmart+ Week event, Walmart is now offering the Nintendo Switch OLED bundled with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $374.99 shipped. You’ll need to be a Walmart+ member to lock-in the savings right now, but memberships are currently 50% off. Normally you’d pay $350 for the Switch itself, with the game adding another $60. Today’s offer is one of the first chances to save on a new condition console this year, with $35 in savings to be had and the best value of 2023 so far. While you can get a full rundown of what to expect in our hands-on review, the new OLED Switch lives up to its name with an improved screen that makes for more immersive handheld gaming, as well as upgraded speakers, too. There’s still the same hybrid action thanks to a refresh docking station that lets you play all of Nintendo’s most recent games on the big screen, too.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has only become more of a must-have for Switch owners after the last few months. Nintendo has been rolling out new tracks to play for the racing game, and it being included in with your new OLED model is a great first game to dive into. Ask new Switch owners or gamers who have had the console since day one, and they’ll both echo the idea that Mario Kart 8 is easily worth a spot in your library for causal racing or game nights with friends.
Then be sure to dive into all of the best game discounts now up for grabs for some ways to put your savings to use. There are plenty of Switch titles on sale right now, letting you expand your library if upgrading to the OLED model or at least kickstart things for first-time Switch owners. Ahead of Prime Day, you’ll be able to save on titles like Mario Strikers, Zelda, Pokémon, Mario Golf, and much more.
For all of this week’s other best gaming deals, be sure to check out our Prime Day guide. We’ll be updating it all week long with the most notable price cuts from around the web, including Amazon on top of Walmart, Best Buy, and other retailers that are getting in on the summer savings.
