If you’re not bothered about hooking up your Nintendo Switch to your TV then you might want to consider buying the Nintendo Switch Lite.
It’s a dedicated handheld console so you won’t be able to hook it up to your TV but you’ll still be able to play all the best Nintendo games on the console including Super Mario Bros, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Breath of the Wild, Pokémon, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing and more.
The best deal we’ve found on the Nintendo Switch Lite is from Music Magpie for a refurbished console for just £149.99 thanks to a special £10 offer.
Don’t worry about the refurbished console as it comes with a 12-month warranty and 14 days return but you’ll have to be quick as they sell out quick.
If the console is sold out, the next best deal is from Amazon that sells the console for £189.99 which is brand new.
If you’re not bothered about hooking up your Nintendo Switch to your TV then you might want to consider buying the Nintendo Switch Lite.
But if you want the full Switch package, you can get the console with Nintendo Switch Sports and three months of Switch Online for just £259.99 from Amazon which is a brilliant deal.
The standard Nintendo Switch allows you to hook the console up to your TV then switch to handheld mode when you want to play your favourite games on the road.
And with Nintendo Switch Online, you can play with friends on online games or play Nintendo classics through the Nintendo eShop.
There’s also the Nintendo Switch OLED model if you want a better picture when you use the handheld console but you will be a paying a premium.
The best price that we have found for the Nintendo Switch OLED is the Legend of Zelda Nintendo Switch bundle which is a special edition console with Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom bundled in with the console from Amazon for just over £300.
It’s one of the most popular Nintendo Switch games released in 2023 so it’s great value for money as well as getting a shiny and crispy OLED screen with your console so you can get the best gaming experience.

There are also rumours that Nintendo could be releasing a new console in the coming year as the Nintendo Switch is already six years old.
So waiting until an amazing deal comes out is probably your best bet and we will cover the best Nintendo Switch deals here so keep an eye out.
Nintendo Switch 2: what do we know and should you buy a Switch?
Rumours are circulating around the internet about a possible Nintendo Switch 2 coming next year as it marks almost seven years since the release of the original Nintendo Switch.
Many retailers have been cutting the price of the console since Summer 2023 with some speculating that the console could be ready for a major refresh.
However, there has been very little information apart from reports from Eurogamer and VGC that Nintendo was showing the console to developers behind closed doors.
But Nintendo has shut these rumours down according to Japanese publication Mainichi.
Sources have told these outlets that a Nintendo Switch 2 could release on the second half of 2024 which begs the question: should you buy a Nintendo Switch?
Well, if there’s a game that you really want to play and you can get a great deal on the device – go for it. But if you’re sitting sitting on the fence and nothing is grabbing you, you might want to wait until next year and see if a new Switch could land.
