Among current-gen gaming platforms, I own an Xbox Series X, a PS5, and a PC. Somehow, I never ended up buying a console from Nintendo. I’ve kept tracking deals on the Switch to this day, and during Prime Day 2025, I’ve finally found a good deal on the Nintendo Switch OLED. This model is four years old and it features a few quality of life improvements over the original Switch, which was released in 2017. At the right price, it may be worth considering as an option even in light of the Nintendo Switch 2‘s recent launch. Right now, you can get the Nintendo Switch OLED on sale for as low as $250 on Woot!, an Amazon-owned site. Or, you can even get it with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $275.
While Woot! is a legit store and won’t scam you, you should bear in mind that this deal is for international models. That means that these units were originally intended for sale outside of the U.S., but due to some oddities with supply and demand, they’re now available in the States. Nintendo of America probably won’t honor the warranty that you’d otherwise get with a Switch you buy in the U.S., which could be a dealbreaker for some people, but you will be able to play games just fine. And notably, Woot! does offer a 90-day limited warranty, so if something goes wrong with your console in the first three months after you buy it, you could contact the store for help.
Still, you’re mostly on your own once you buy this. I have some experience with that, since Nintendo doesn’t have an official presence where I live (India). Its consoles and games are available here through some local retailers, but they have to import them from other regions. We don’t get any warranty support from Nintendo here, but in general, we haven’t heard of too many cases of the Switch breaking down. If that’s a risk you can live with, then this is a good deal on a console that’s going to be relevant for years to come.
The real question is: should you buy this Switch or save up for a Switch 2 instead? If you’ve never had a Switch, or if you want to introduce a kid in your neighborhood to Nintendo’s games, then the Switch OLED is a great starting point at these sub-$300 prices. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe itself costs $60 normally, and it’s hard to find a deal that gets you the game under $40. You’re guaranteed hundreds of hours of fun coop gaming with that alone. If you have the cash, I recommend saving up for the Switch 2, but since that console doesn’t have many exclusives right now, the Switch OLED can still play most of Nintendo’s greats. Also, you’re likely not going to find a sale on that machine anytime soon.
