Nineties babies will remember the hold Nintendo had over them during childhood. Nights spent playing Animal Crossing while hiding under the covers, Rainbow Road racing on Mario Kart and endless Pokémon battles against siblings following the demise of Gameboy. What a time to be alive.
Who knew, some twenty years after the inception of the Nintendo DS, that Nintendo would still be thriving in the realm of handheld consoles?
Cue the Nintendo Switch, which has captured the public imagination like no other Nintendo product. The first edition was released in March 2017 and became the brand’s quickest-selling device having sold three million copies during the first month of its release, and ten million within a year of being launched.
The appeal of the Nintendo Switch arose as it incorporates a hybrid system that allows users to flit between a home console system and a handheld one. It can be connected to the TV when kicking back at home or carried with you to liven up dull morning commutes.
Sadly, Nintendo Switches don’t come cheap. Teetering between the £200 mark and the £300, they are a lavish gaming purchase. However, Black Friday is right around the corner, meaning we can expect some major bargains on the beloved console, games and accessories.
Whether you want to invest in a brand new Switch or update your gaming accessories arsenal, read on to discover the best Black Friday deals for Nintendo Switch this year.

FAQs
When is Black Friday?
Brace yourself this Sagittarius season, as Black Friday will kick off on November 24. However, make sure to keep an eye peeled for any discounts and deals that drop before the official date as this tends to happen.
What is Black Friday?
Black Friday is an annual event that encourages people to shop ‘til they drop. The bargain bonanza is all about sales, from fashion, tech and homeware plus so much more.
The discounted product parade initially began in the USA, but soon hopped across the pond due to its epic scale and influence that Brits simply had to witness for themselves.
When does Black Friday end?
Black Friday will officially end on Monday, November 27, a day known as Cyber Monday. This means you have three whole days to cash out on the sales but prices can fluctuate, so if you see a steal, don’t wait to buy it.
What kind of Nintendo Switch deals can we expect?
Looking at last year’s deals, we can safely assume that there will be an abundance of Nintendo Switch games up for grabs, plus the actual console and accessories.
Are there any Nintendo Switch discounts available now?
Due to the popularity of the product, we are yet to find any worthwhile discounts for Nintendo Switch. But this could all change come November 24.
