Nintendo's official UK store is following up its Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals with new offer —they're throwing in a free 128GB Micro SD card with any Nintendo Switch Lite console or bundle.
The Super Mushroom branded card retails for £34.99 separately, so that's not a bad deal at all, and with all the games available digitally, a little extra memory space is always welcome! This deal is available for any Switch Lite console, including the bundle that comes with a Switch Lite, Animal Crossing: New Horizons and three months of Nintendo Switch Online membership.
If you missed out on the Black Friday frenzy... well, you didn't really! Check out the Switch Lite console and bundle deals below if you're a UK shopper on the lookout for some substantial stocking fillers, with a little extra memory on the side:

'Free', yup, I got some 'free' car mats the other week, only had to spend 26k on the car.
Man I wish I lived in the UK the first complaint when I first got my switch is the lack of storage which is super hard if the first game you might purchase is the Bioshock or BORDERLANDS collection, L.A Noire, or The Resident Evil Revelations 1&2 pack
thats a great deal.
So uselessly small and costs about the same as a fast food meal.
How generous.
@SMUGSLOTH69 If only the games themselves came on some kind of storage media, so that they wouldn't take up so much space. Can you imagine such a thing?
Wow, people sure do like to complain about everything. For people wishing to get a Lite, this is a nice bonus.
Should have been doing this with all Switch consoles since March 2017.
@StevenG
Many of the bigger triple-A games on the Switch, especially those from EA, 2K, Activision, often require mandatory downloads to run the games.
This is because these are larger games that were originally designed for PC or competing consoles, and the physical game cards for the Switch are both limited in size and expensive to produce.
If you want to play these sorts of games it's a good idea to have a big microSD card. These days many games don't even get a physical release. In many cases purchasing physical versions is far more expensive than the microSD to store them, and the digital purchases themselves.
@RupeeClock Were I live (Argentina) physical games cost more than twice the price of digital ones, so getting a big SD card is much more convenient than getting cartridges, even if I really like having physical games.
@RupeeClock I agree they should use larger carts. When the game costs twice as much as on other consoles, they can easily afford to use a proper size cartridge.
Games that don't get a physical release, to my mind simply aren't released.
As someone nearing midlife I have more money to spend on games than time to spend on them, it often seems. I find it takes me months to finish games as I play maybe a couple hours a week. So ruling out games that publishers or developers don't want me to play them is just a natural thing to do.
I feel sales figures have spoken at this point, people prefer the Switch that actually switches. I bet you a scalped Switch that if the Lite was at least compatible with a dock, it would have sold much much better.
@StevenG Fast food meal for 1 person, or a family?
@StevenG I don't know if you're referring to physical cartridges or you're saying switches should have way more space on them cause they should
@SMUGSLOTH69 I am talking about physical games.
@LinktotheFuture Depends on what you buy and where. $20 or less can easily reached by one person if they order a fancy sandwich, nicer side and a soda.
@71nk0 Funny how they are so expensive over here and at the same time we have the cheapest eshop store, albeit rather scarce.
@StevenG oh ok I get it the fact that all these switch games coming out are digital only or only like 1/4 of the game is on the cartridge is pretty crappy
