If you’re in the market for a Nintendo Switch, Amazon-owned retailer Woot has slashed the price of the Switch OLED to $315 (was $350) today only (June 4). This particular model has a very sharp and vibrant OLED display, an improved dock and kickstand, and several other nice upgrades. Only the model with white Joy-Con controllers is up for grabs at this price. If you want an extra pair of controllers for multiplayer, check out these deals on multiple different color styles.
This version of the Switch has double the storage capacity of the regular model–64GB instead of 32GB–and an improved stand for when you want to play Tears of the Kingdom on a plane. The OLED screen really does make a tangible difference to games, and when you’re playing retro titles via the Nintendo Online membership, these titles look better than ever.
Like the standard Switch model, the OLED comes with a dock to connect it to your TV and two Joy-Con controllers. The dock is wider than the original, and it includes an ethernet port.
If you are in the market for a Switch but you’re on a budget or only want a portable-only console, you can also check out this Walmart’s special-edition Animal Crossing bundle that comes with New Horizons.
The Switch Lite is still a rock-solid handheld console. It can’t connect to your TV, it uses a 720p LCD screen, and it has no detachable Joy-Cons, but its compatible with nearly every Switch game. Switch Lites rarely receive discounts, so getting a $60 game for free with the purchase of the handheld is a pretty great offer.
You’ll likely want to beef up your internal storage no matter which Nintendo console you go for, and fortunately, microSD cards are very affordable right now. You can get a 256GB SanDisk Ultra microSD card for only $20 right now at Amazon.
You can also grab a few discounted Nintendo games for your new Switch from Amazon and Walmart. Some of the highlights here include Super Mario RPG and Super Mario Bros. Wonder, several Zelda games, and the delightful Kirby’s Return to Dreamland.
