Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals can come in particularly handy if you blank on the big day itself. Yes, everything is about Black Friday but not only do we often see discounts running all the way through the week after Thanksgiving, but Monday itself can present some new opportunities to save as well.
We often see retailers launching new waves of deals over the weekend in preparation for a second run at Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals. However, we’ve also spotted some prices falling even further during this later period – especially if they sit on accessories facing threats from new models. That’s because retailers often use this sales period to shift stock of kit that they don’t see selling past new models in the next year. That means you can score some rock bottom prices when the stores get a little looser with their discounts.
Last year’s Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals hold a treasure trove of information for anyone keen to check out what’s in store after the main event. That’s why we’re using all those offers to work out exactly what we might see in 2022. We’ve been tracking Nintendo Switch deals for years now, so we know what a good bundle looks like and just how much you should be paying for each game. You’ll find our predictions for this year’s sale, and all the dates and names you need to know about just below. Of course, we’re also rounding up more information for this year’s Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals as well.
When will Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals start?
Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals officially land on Monday November 28 this year. That’s typically when we see any new offers hit the shelves, however many retailers simply roll their previous offers over through the weekend. If you miss out on Black Friday shenanigans, then, it’s well worth keeping your eyes peeled throughout Saturday and Sunday. We often see stores shifting their sale from Sunday onwards.

What to expect from Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals 2022
Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals may look a little different to their Black Friday counterparts. If you’re on the hunt for a console, we would absolutely recommend getting in earlier than the weekend. After all, while some bundles do last until the second event, the best ones are usually stripped from the shelves before Thanksgiving is even over. These are highly competitive offers, so if you’re truly looking for the best value possible you’ll need to get in ahead of time.
We do expect some bundles to be leftover once the madness dies down. Larger packages including multiple games and accessories are often the last to leave the shelves. Just make sure that you’re not over-paying for anything included in the bundle. This year, we also expect to see some more Nintendo Switch OLED bundles hitting those sale lines as well. The latest console has already seen some excellent price cuts over the course of the year, dropping as low as $330 / £289 (usually $349.99 / $309.99). While straight price cuts like this will likely be reserved for Friday, bundle between the prices of $349 – $369 / £299 – £329 may still be up for grabs.
If you’re looking to stock up on games and accessories there’s some better news for you. We often see Friday’s offers rolling through the weekend on these lower priced options. Cheaper or older games are a surefire bet – last year we saw $20 off the likes of Breath of the Wild, Paper Mario, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, all of which made it through to Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals. Newer games may be a little more stringent, but we would still expect similar savings on Pokemon Legends: Arceus and Kirby and the Forgotten Land to remain over the weekend. You may need to be a little quicker to pick up recently released titles like Splatoon 3 at a discount, though.
