There are some games consoles out there that are perpetually on sale. Take the Xbox series X and the all-new PS5 Slim, which are both discounted at Amazon right now. The Nintendo Switch OLED, however, isn’t a console that really ever sees a price reduction.
We’ve only ever seen it fall below £280 once before, and that was last year during Black Friday. And now, the Nintendo Switch OLED in the neon red and neon blue colourway has just been slashed to that same lowest-ever price at Amazon.
Launched in 2021, the Nintendo Switch OLED is a souped-up version of the original Nintendo Switch console. It features a larger, more vivid and brighter OLED display, better speakers, a more stable design and double the internal storage.
Usually priced at £309.99, the Nintendo Switch OLED has been discounted to just £279.95. We’ve got all the details on the deal below.
Nintendo Switch OLED, neon red/neon blue: Was £309.99, now £279.95, Amazon.co.uk
Discounted by £30 for only the second time since the console launched, the Nintendo Switch OLED was described as “the best version of the console yet” by our reviewer. “The OLED console has a larger and far more vibrant 7in display, boasting deeper blacks and more accurate colour reproduction,” our writer said in their review of the best game consoles.
You get 64GB of internal storage – that’s double the size of the Switch and Switch lite – meaning you can download more digital games without having to buy an SD card. And lastly, our writer raved about the better build quality. “We absolutely adore the robust kickstand that stretches across the rear, making tabletop gaming more of a joy and less of a nuisance,” they said.
SanDisk 128GB microSDXC card: Was £34.99, now £14.78, Amazon.co.uk
A microSD card might not feel like the most exciting of purchases, but it’s almost essential if you plan on buying many games from the Nintendo eShop store.
SanDisk is one of the most reliable names in memory cards, so it makes sense to stick with a reputable brand. This officially branded card triples the storage of the base Nintendo Switch OLED, giving you an additional 128GB of space to play with. That means less time spent uninstalling old or large games to make room for new ones. Setup is a simple matter of slotting the card into the clearly placed microSD slot on your console – it’s compatible with all Nintendo Switch consoles, and there’s no to do anything techy to get it working.
