The incredible Switch OLED bundle is back in stock at Target, now priced at $275, alongside the standard Switch bundle for $225. Both include a digital copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a 12-month Nintendo Switch Online subscription, making them standout Black Friday deals of 2024, and probably my favorite deal of the year.
This deal has already sold out multiple times before Black Friday (today!), and I wouldn’t be surprised if it goes again before the end of the day. Even with the rumored Switch 2 likely arriving next year, it’s worth grabbing this bundle for your kids, a friend, or yourself, but do it quickly to avoid missing out, as it’s unlikely to last much longer.
These bundles offer a $155 discount compared to purchasing everything separately at full price, making it an excellent value even with the Switch successor on the horizon. Plus, the inclusion of a 12-month NSO subscription is a step up from previous bundles, which only offered three months of online membership. Stay tuned for updates here or follow @IGNDeals on Twitter/X or Bluesky.
If you’re unaware, the 12-month NSO membershup includes access to online multiplayer, cloud saves, and a growing library of classic NES, SNES, and Game Boy titles. Paired with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, these bundles provide excellent value at highly competitive prices, no matter which one you choose.
Other standout Black Friday Switch deals include The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (digital) for $30 at Walmart—a significant drop from its $70 launch price and the lowest price yet for IGN’s 2023 Game of the Year. These discounts come as speculation grows about Nintendo’s next console, commonly referred to as the Switch 2. Reports hint at a 2025 release, and backward compatibility with current Switch games and Switch Online has already been confirmed.
More Switch Black Friday Deals
The final phase of Nintendo’s Black Friday sale is now live, and these are the best deals, which aren’t getting any better! To be fair, they are mostly excellent as it is.
The sale features feature discounts on popular Switch titles, including Sonic X Generations for $29.99, Super Mario Odyssey for $29.99, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom for $44.99, and Balatro for $19.99.
Switch MicroSD Card Black Friday Deals
The Nintendo Switch and Switch OLED offer 32GB and 64GB of internal storage, respectively, with some of that reserved for the operating system. To put this into perspective, Tears of the Kingdom takes up 16GB, while Breath of the Wild requires about 13.5GB. Downloading both games digitally would nearly fill the original Switch’s storage, making a high-capacity memory card less of a luxury and more of a necessity.
