Prime Day Nintendo Switch Deals: Top Picks for Gamers

Amazon Prime Day is in full swing, and it’s the perfect time for Prime members to grab some incredible deals on a wide range of products. From tech to household essentials, there are discounts available across almost every major category. As someone who frequently covers shopping events like Prime Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday, I know how to find deals that are actually worth buying. Plus, I’ve been gaming on the Nintendo Switch since 2017, enjoying everything from roguelikes like Hades to open-world RPGs like Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. (That said, I haven’t had the chance to try out the recently launched Nintendo Switch 2 yet.)

I’ve gone through thousands of discounts to find the best Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals for both the original models and the new Nintendo Switch 2. Each one I recommend below is highly rated, at least 20% off, and at its lowest price in at least three months. I’ll keep updating this list throughout Prime Day.
