Amazon Prime Big Deal Days 2024: All Nintendo Switch Deals
Here are the best Nintendo deals that we've found in the Amazon Prime Day sale. We'll keep updating this section of our guide throughout the event, so keep checking back.
If you'd rather browse through all of today's deals yourself, here are the links you need:
Nintendo Switch Consoles
Let's kick things off with deals on Switch consoles. The best prices available come in the form of renewed and refurbished listings, where the console you're buying is used but has been thoroughly tested to ensure that it's working as expected.
If you'd rather buy a new console, the OLED model – the best Switch console on the market – is discounted in both the US and UK.
US deals:
UK deals:
Nintendo eShop Credit
Sadly, Amazon hasn't offered any deals on Nintendo eShop credit during this sales event, but never fear!
We're currently offering a discount on all credit – and indeed every single product we have available – at our very own store. Simply use code PRIME5 at checkout to take 5% off anything you like, including eShop credit, Nintendo Switch Online subscriptions, games, and more.
Nintendo Switch Games
It's perhaps unsurprising that the biggest Nintendo Switch games haven't received huge discounts – they very rarely do – but there's still a selection of games to choose from at reduced rates.
A special shoutout has to go to that UK deal on Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope – £12 for a physical Mario game is a steal and it's selling out fast.
US deals:
UK deals:
Micro SD Cards
The prices of microSD cards are becoming impressively low, and seeing those whopping 1.5TB cards reduced to such prices is a seriously tempting deal. Buy one of those, and you'll never have to worry about storage space again.
Learn all about the best microSD Cards for your Nintendo Switch in our guide.
US deals:
UK deals:
Nintendo Switch Controllers
The PowerA options would be our picks of the bunch here, with the company being known as a very reliable third-party controller manufacturer. Although it is nice to see the official Pro Controller also reduced in the UK.
US deals:
UK deals:
Nintendo Switch Cases
All of the Switch cases we've linked to here will do the job nicely (that job being to store and transport your Switch safely), so pick the design you like the best! We're drawn to the Mario ones, naturally, but the larger ones let you carry an impressive amount of accessories too.
US deals:
UK deals:
Nintendo Switch Headsets
There are some decent savings to be had on gaming headsets this year, with some of the more expensive options we've shared below almost being half off. SteelSeries, Turtle Beach, Logitech and Corsair are all known for being high quality brands, so we'd check those out as a priority.

UK deals:
Nintendo Switch - Other Accessories
And now for a section dedicated to random accessories that you probably would think of, but turn out to be one of the most useful things you've purchased. Have a browse of these:

UK deals:
Arcade/Retro
Not strictly Nintendo here, but who doesn't want an arcade in the house? Below, we've rounded up some of the top home arcade products included in Amazon's sale, including a fair few of Arcade1Up's super-cool cabinets.

why are all these comments here from last year ?
anyhoo, i wanted to say that whilst it does seem there are some genuine Amazon offers in the list of games (AFAICT 👀) . . . certainly a great many of them are just PRICE-MATCHING other retailers
the first party games at £37.99 are price-matching Argos who offered those prices FIRST - plus Argos have a 10% off gaming code which gives further 10% off. (which Amazon have actually also been matching via a clickable coupon)
the console price £269.95 is a blatant price-match of TheGameCollection.Net - they have had the console at that price for a considerably long time now but they also have it with Metroid Dread for the same price ! and they may still be giving a 10% discount code when you subscribe to their newsletter (which if so makes OLED + Dread = £242.95) plus at TGC you always earn the equivalent of 2.5% back in Reward Points as standard to freely spend on anything else
@jco83 It’s a very frustrating and unusual aspect of Nintendolife articles. Good catch though because I was about to hunt for stuff that wasn’t even on sale 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Get Tunic! Get Sparks of Hope!
I joined Prime last year and honestly it's the biggest waste of money.
@1UP_MARIO Some of the memory card deals aren't too bad but yeah apart from that nothing special really.
@RubyCarbuncle they really not too bad this year but my comment was for the prices last year
Stop reposting old articles!
@1UP_MARIO Ohh my bad I only just noticed the date and year now after you mentioned it.
I bought a lot of the games I wanted during the most recent eShop sale so I don't think I'll be going for any of these personally, though Sea of Stars for €30 is very tempting 👀
The UK deals are rather disappointing. Some aren't even prime deals and were at the same price or lower before all this. The Switch OLED for example was at that price before prime day. Mario & Luigi: Brothership isn't a prime deal either, they're just price matching TGC. A lot of hype for nothing.
Meh. I just can't support Amazon like that anymore.
Removed - inappropriate language
Wow! The $31.99 SD card I bought in November is now ON SALE for "only" $39.99! I'm impressed!
Not!
The free trial amazon links haven't worked since last year!
Please STOP posting old articles!
Disappointing deals, and the US sale doesn't even include Pokemon Violet?
EVERYBODY. Please play Rune Factory 4. Do it for me.
The U.S. sales are so mediocre this year. Oh well. 🤷♂️
I got an xbox expansion card. That’s it for me.
I'm sure that Star Wars arcade game was something you sat in? I still want one though! 😂
Is it worth it?

“Despite making $36 billion in profits last year and providing its CEO with over $275 million in compensation over the past three years, Amazon continues to treat its workers as disposable and with complete contempt for their safety and well-being.”
Do we really need to support this unethical behemoth of a company in 20 freaking 24. It just got its 430 mlrd of € !
I already have the 1.5TB SD card from sales from last year but I kind of wish I'd waited. Never mind.
You forgot in the UK deals Ai: The Somnium Files - Nirvana Initiative, dropped to £20.99 from £30 with the second cheapest anywhere right now is round the 25 quid mark. Rune Factory 5 dropped to 20, Lost Crown to 19 (Was £23 last time I looked), Dredge is now 19 as well, story of Seasons: Pioneers Of Olive Town 20. Can replace some of the terrible code in the box deals if space is limited.
Hmmm, some of these "deals" are ones I see on here regularly.
Did you know that I can predict the future? I'm a modern Nostradamus. And I foresee. . . Mario Kart being the best selling game this month.
Echoes of Wisdom isn’t in the sale, that’s just their current price for the game on UK Amazon.
This is odd, I’m actually seeing some products in the sale, sell out. You hardly ever see products actually sell out during Prime Day sales. I saw one of the Story of Seasons on sale, but now it isn’t available direct from Amazon.
@NintendoByNature I realize this is a subjective observation based on my own interests, but I'm not really impressed with any of the Nintendo-related deals. At least for the US.
(Those prices aren't terrible for New Super Mario Bros. Wonder and TotK I'll admit)
Lame, or maybe I missed something
If you haven't gotten it yet, that 1.5TB SD card is a pretty good deal/ investment. Especially for the upcoming Switch 2 if game file sizes continue to increase.
A tip for a switch joycon replacement is the GameSir G8 Plus
Works with the switch and ALSO tablets (even an ipad pro), phones, mac, windows
Can be used as a controller if not holding switch or phone etc
Hall effect sticks, analogue shoulder buttons
Easy to change physical x,y,a,b key order
Get so much compatibility for your money instead of buying a hori split pad, a bluetooth controller and another phone holder controller and a windows controller because it's all those in 1.
