Big discounts on Nintendo Switch hardware are pretty rare, but getting some of the cheapest Nintendo Switch bundles and deals in 2024 is much easier than in other years. In the US, many retailers now offer refurbished Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch OLED consoles, allowing you to get a second-hand system at a pretty substantial savings compared to a new one. However, if you're looking for a new console, there are also some good options to choose from.
If you're currently looking for a good deal, we've got you covered with this comprehensive roundup of all the cheapest Nintendo Switch bundles and deals available this month.

Where can I get the best Nintendo Switch deals?
Outside of special sales events, most major retailers in the US, UK and Australia will offer discounts intermittently throughout the year. To get the best and biggest savings, it's always best to wait for events like Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday, which take place in summer and winter respectively.
Do I need to buy more Nintendo Switch controllers for multiplayer?
Possibly not! Remember how the Joy-Con controller splits into two? Turn them sideways and you get two basic controllers, each with their own analog stick and face buttons – the d-pad acts as facial functions on the left controller. We've seen 2K's NBA series, Snipper Clips, FIFA 19, and Mario Kart used this way for local multiplayer in both docked and tablet modes. So you get multiplayer functionality right out of the box with no additional purchases required.
However, if you want to play four-player games, you'll need to invest in an extra pair of Joy-Con controllers or some Pro controllers. We'd buy the Joy-Con as a pair (see our comparison chart above), as it will save a bit of money when purchasing them separately. Better yet, if your friends have a Switch, ask them to bring their controllers to the party!
