Here’s where you’ll find the best Nintendo Black Friday deals on hardware bundles and games in 2018.

It’s time of year again, where retailers from all over the world slash their prices and offer enormous deals and discounts in the name of Black Friday. It’s a great time to be a thrifty shopper, as plenty of online and brick and mortar outlets go all out to grab the attention of your wallet.

Of course, with all this discounting action it can be hard to keep track of the best bargains, and that’s where we come in. We’ve got our highly trained Black Friday bargain noses out sniffing down as many retailers as we can to try and find you the best deals on all manner of Nintendo goodness that we’re bringing, to quote the late Satoru Iwata, directly to you.

This page is where we’ll be looking at the best Black Friday deals for Nintendo Switch consoles, Nintendo 3DS consoles and games for both. Currently, the best price for a pure Nintendo Switch so far is the console with Grey JoyCons going for £259.99 at Zavvi, or this bundle that throws together the console with a copy of Dark Souls Remastered for £299.99.

If none of the above deals takes your fancy, it’s definitely worth holding out for another day or two to make the most of the bundle deals we’ll almost certainly see during the sales.

Last year, there was a bit of a mad rush for Nintendo Switch consoles and bundles considering the hybrid device had only been out for a few months when Black Friday rolled around. We saw many retailers holding their best deals until the day itself, with the likes of Amazon offering bundles with Super Mario Odyssey or Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle for around the £330 mark. We expect there won’t be a too significant drop in price this year as the console enters its second year, though we may see a few bundles with older games drop to around or below the region of £300.

Meanwhile, premium games such as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Party are likely to stick close to the £50 mark once again. We might get lucky with a few smaller discounts, though don’t hold out for anything too drastic. The hotly-anticipated Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! will both have been released just two weeks prior to Black Friday. It might be wise to think about holding out for Black Friday to see if a decent bundle deal featuring either game becomes available, but it’s far from guaranteed and would still probably be near the standard £330 price point.

When does Black Friday start?

Black Friday falls on November 23rd this year, with Cyber Monday deals kicking in a few days later on November 26. Cyber Monday is the sales event that traditionally was the online-focused sister event to the previously brick-and-mortar focused Black Friday, but as times and shopping habits have changed and online shopping has skyrocketed, the lines have blurred massively. What you can expect out of Cyber Monday is another week filled with savings, most of which were kept out of Black Friday events, meaning it’ll be a set of fresh offers.

Even so, more and more retailers have also started sneaking deals out of the door from the Friday a week before Black Friday itself, so we may see some great offers that kick off from Friday 16 November so keep returning here and checking as we approach the big day to get the best Nintendo-related savings for your buck.

Last year, the Nintendo Switch was one of the most popular products across most retailers’ Black Friday sales, and that was only the very first Black Friday event of the console’s lifespan. The console has proven very successful for Ninty, recently surpassing the lifetime sales of the GameCube. With this month’s release of Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee, Super Smash Bros Ultimate imminently on the horizon, and a new Animal Crossing next year, the console’s popularity shows no signs of slowing down and we suspect we’ll see plenty more deals on Nintendo Switch during this year’s event.

Sure to be incredibly popular this November is the limited edition Pokemon-adorned Switch for the release of Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu and Pokemon Let’s Go Eevee available in a bundle with the game and the Pokeball Plus Controller, which you can get from Amazon UK in both Pikachu and Eevee flavours for £339.99.

Meanwhile, we’ve gathered up our top picks for the best Black Friday PS4 bundles and game deals as well the best Black Friday Xbox One deals in case you want to pick up any other discounts right now.
