If there's one thing people would've brawled over on Black Friday 2020, it would've been the Nintendo Switch.

Find all the top Nintendo Switch bundle deals for Black Friday & Cyber Monday 2020, featuring offers on Nintendo Switch & Switch Lite bundles. Here’s our list of the best Nintendo Switch bundle deals for Black Friday & Cyber Monday 2020, including discounts on joy-cons, games and accessories bundles.

Fortunately (at least from a public safety standpoint), most retailers' big holiday sales are taking place online this year. Instead of scrapping over a console between the end caps of a Walmart aisle at 3 a.m., you'll have to be one of the first to click a 'Place Your Order' button once deals go live.

That doesn't mean things won't get a little chancy, especially if resellers' checkout bots come into play again (like they did this past spring). But the good news is that you've got plenty of time to come up with a game plan: Nintendo is staggering its Black Friday deals throughout the week leading up to the annual shopping holiday starting Nov. 20.

At least so far, the company's new Switch system bundle is looking like the deal to beat. (That one went live at Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, GameStop, and Kohl's on Nov. 22.) But Nintendo's Black Friday press release also hinted at restocks of both the special-edition Animal Crossing: New Horizons Switch and Ring Fit Adventure (as well as digital deals exclusive to the Nintendo eShop), so keep your eyes peeled for even more savings as we head into Cyber Weekend.

Below, you'll find a complete list of the best Switch deals we've spotted across retailers as of Nov 27 at 12 p.m. EST. We'll update this post as more of them roll in, so go ahead and bookmark this page while you're at it.

OUR TOP PICK: Nintendo Switch system bundle

One of the year's top gaming deals is without a doubt Nintendo's new Switch bundle, which includes a standard console with neon red and blue Joy-Cons, a digital copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and a three-month Nintendo Switch Online individual membership. That's a $367.97 value altogether, but several major retailers have it listed at just $299.99 — an 18% savings. (It really can't be overstated: Switches never go on sale, so this is huge.)

Update 11/27 12 p.m. EST: This bundle was in stock on Amazon at the time of writing.

Black Friday retailers

US:Amazon | Best Buy | Newegg | Walmart

UK:Amazon | Currys | John Lewis | Argos

Don't be fooled into thinking that it'll be easy to find a Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals just because much of the gaming world will have turned its attention to the new PS5 and Xbox Series X launches, though. We still expect both the regular Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite to sell out on a regular basis right through Black Friday and Christmas.

Why? With so many people spending much more time at home than originally planned in 2020, the Switch has surged again in popularity. For most of the pandemic, it has actually been sold out completely. Recent weeks have seen stock making a comeback, however, so we're optimistic about some Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals. The popular Nintendo consoles rarely get a price-drop themselves, but we are expecting Nintendo Switch bundles with extra games or accessories to get discounts.

The reductions are starting earlier than usual this year at many stores rather than bottlenecking on November 27 (the official Black Friday date), so keep your eyes on this page as we're updating it regularly to bring you the latest deals on consoles, games, Switch memory cards, extra controllers, headsets, and any of the other best Nintendo Switch accessories.

Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals - consoles

Looking for a console offer in the Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals? We'd suggest looking for the 'standard' model. Because it can be used on the TV or in handheld mode, it provides maximum flexibility. That means you can seamlessly swap from a Mario Kart tournament on the big screen to a solo session of Breath of the Wild on the sofa.

To get a wider range of discounts, be sure to check in with the best Nintendo Switch bundles.

US deals

Animal Crossing: New Horizons Edition Switch | $299.99 at Best Buy

There's currently a very special, unique Animal Crossing console available at Amazon and Best Buy. It's a real beauty, and perfect for fans of the laid-back franchise. Although it doesn't include the game, it's still a bargain for a limited edition. We've also seen this price at Amazon, although stock has been in and out.

Nintendo Switch (Neon Blue / Red) | $299.99 at Amazon Nintendo Switch stock has started making a modest comeback over the last few weeks after being sold out for most of the pandemic. We wouldn't get complacent though, especially if you're thinking of picking one up for Christmas as we expect them to start selling out again soon. BestBuy had stock recently too, although it seemed to be sold out when we checked today. It's worth you double-checking though as we expect more soon.

UK deals

Limited Edition Fortnite Nintendo Switch | £279.99 at Amazon

Considering how scarce Nintendo Switch bundle stock has been of late, this is a great deal on the rare Nintendo Switch Fortnite Edition. It comes with a unique design on the dock, but more importantly, a pair of blue/yellow Joy-Cons that really make this one stand out. Fortnite is of course already free, but you do get some premium DLC extras like the Wildcat Outfits, Sleek Strike Back Blings and 2000 V-Bucks.

Nintendo Switch Lite Black Friday deals

The Nintendo Switch Lite is much cheaper than the regular Nintendo Switch, and that's because it can't be used on the TV and must be played in handheld mode only (there are no detachable controllers either). However, it does still play all the same games. What's more, the smaller 5.5-inch screen is just as good and features the same touchscreen interactivity. Basically, the Switch Lite is great if you're just buying for yourself, a child, or as a second console if you already have a regular Switch. It's also perfect if you prefer to game in handheld mode away from the TV.

Although it's already very competitively priced, we're expecting some modest price cuts and maybe even some discounted Nintendo Switch Lite bundles if we're lucky. Check out today's prices below.

US deals

USA: Nintendo Switch Lite + carry case + 128GB memory card | $251.97 at Best Buy This Nintendo Switch Lite bundle is a great starter pack as it comes with a protective carry case and a 128Gb memory card. Extra storage space would be one of our first recommendations for any new Switch owner as you only get 32GB of on-board storage which soon disappears.

Nintendo Switch Lite + 128GB memory card | $235 $225.40 at Amazon Fancy living dangerously and not picking up a carry case for your new handheld console in the bundle above? You're getting the same memory card in this deal and you can also choose between Gray, Turquoise, or Yellow consoles at Amazon.

Nintendo Switch Lite | Animal Crossing: New Horizons | $259.98 at Best Buy

Given how most stores are charging over the normal price for a Switch Lite right now, this is one of the only decent bundles around. But hey, it is for the biggest game of the year so far on the Switch, so count us in! Available in turquoise or gray.

UK deals

Nintendo Switch Lite | Super Mario 3D All-Stars | £229 at Currys Saving £15 on this brand new game is excellent value given how darn long it takes for Nintendo's first-party games to come down in price. It's a fab trilogy to play through on your new Switch Lite, with Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy included. You've got the full selection of console colours to choose from too in Grey,Turquoise, Yellow and Pink.

Nintendo Switch Lite + Animal Crossing: New Horizons | £239.99 at Very

As one of the console's biggest games of the year, this is an excellent early Black Friday Nintendo Switch Lite bundle deal. Get the console in Grey,Turquoise, or Yellow.

Nintendo Switch Lite + Pokemon Shield| £239.99 at Very

Want the latest Pokemon to go with your new Switch? Very has you covered with this Shield Version bundle. It's certainly cheaper than buying both items separately! The console bundle is also available in Grey or Turquoise.

Mario Kart Live deals

Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit has been a big hit since releasing recently and has been selling out at most stores in the US, with UK availability being a bit better. It should only cost $99.99/£99.99 for the home circuit with either a Mario or Luigi kart included, but prices have gone up at some stores. There's a price comparison chart below with the latest prices. If they've gone up past the usual price, we'd hold out for regular stock to return rather than pay over the odds. We wouldn't hold out for any major discounts on the MSRP though before Christmas, so if it's on your list, bag one while you can.

Nintendo Switch Black Friday game deals

First-party Nintendo games are notorious for holding their value long after launch, just ask anyone trying to find a cheap price on Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Black Friday is the most likely time of year to see a deal on a Mario title or Animal Crossing though. We expect plenty of third-party games from other publishers to get some big price-cuts too and we'll be updating this list on a regular basis with our latest findings. Want more right now? Check out our guide to the best cheap Nintendo Switch game sales happening right now.

US deals

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild | $60 $44.99 at Amazon

Even after all this time, Breath of the Wild is still the best game on Switch. Everyone on the planet should play it. It revolutionized Zelda as we know it, and it outdid virtually every other open-world game not by making the biggest world ever, but by making a perfectly sized world that's overflowing with creativity.

Super Mario Odyssey | $60 $44.99 at Amazon

Fittingly, Super Mario Odyssey is to 3D Mario games what Breath of the Wild is to Zelda. It's a bold step forward for the series that preserves what makes these games so special. Super Mario Odyssey is easily the best 3D Mario game ever made, and it's a shoo-in for top five Switch games.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe| $60 $49.94 at Amazon

The latest Mario Kart is comfortably one of the best in years, and it's perfect for the Holiday season - especially if you're stuck at home. Besides racing tournaments, you can also set up battles to duke it out to see who's the best driver. A must-have game for any Nintendo Switch owner.

UK deals

Super Mario 3D All-Stars | £50 $44 at Amazon

Return to three of Mario's most beloved adventures with this bundle. Drawing from decades of gaming history, it contains Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy. In other words, it's got three top-tier games for the price of one. Lovely.

Black Friday Nintendo Switch controller deals

It's always a good idea to grab extra controllers just in case you want to play multiplayer games over the Holiday season and beyond. The Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals offer the perfect chance to get them for less.

You've got three choices: the standard Joy-Cons you got with the standard console in the first place, the Pro Controller for a more traditional experience, or cheaper third-party alternatives if you want to save cash. We've got the latest offers on all of these below, and you can find more bargains in our guide to cheap Nintendo Switch controller deals.

Joy-Cons

You get two Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons in the box with the console, so you might not immediately need to buy any more. There are lots of fun four-player party games on the Switch though and you might find you need to pick up an extra pair and the Black Friday shopping season sometimes gives these official Joy-Cons a bit of a price drop. Check out the latest prices below.

Pro Controller

The Nintendo Switch Pro controller is ultimately the best Nintendo Switch controller to use for most 'traditional' games on the console, especially something long-term like Zelda: Breath of the Wild or an RPG. It's damn good, damn popular, and officially made by Nintendo, which is all rather damning news for any hope of a decent discount for most of the year. We'll keep our eyes peeled though and the price comparison widget below is always scanning for reduced Pro controller prices.

Third-party alternatives

Nintendo Switch Black Friday Deals

Looking for something a bit cheaper or with a wider range of colors to choose from? We think the PowerA Enhanced Wireless controller is the best third-party option. It lacks vibration or NFC (for Amiibos) features but it has a decent build quality, extra mappable buttons on the back (the official Pro doesn't), and motion-controls too. The wireless models are powered by two AA batteries.

We've got a full guide to the best Nintendo Switch headsets if you'd like to have a deep dive into our favorite compatible models for the console.
