If you're interested in adding to your Nintendo Switch library, Black Friday is always the best time of the year to do just that. Nintendo Switch-exclusive games are often discounted to their lowest prices yet, and Black Friday 2023 will be no different. Nintendo has already announced a slate of official Black Friday deals that will be available at all major retailers, but you don't have to wait until later this month to start saving on Nintendo Switch games. A nice selection of Switch exclusives are on sale for $40 or less. To help you find the best deals, we've put together a list of the best Black Friday Nintendo Switch game deals.
There's already a wealth of Switch exclusives up for grabs for great prices. All of the iconic Nintendo staples are represented. Notably, you can pick up several The Legend of Zelda games, including the 2023 smash hit Tears of the Kingdom, at discounted prices. Of course, this wouldn't be a Nintendo Switch games roundup without Mario. From traditional Super Mario platformers to Mario sports games, there's a lot of variety in the deals.
One of the best Black Friday Switch offers is the Super Mario Party Joy-Con bundle. As part of Nintendo's official Black Friday lineup, you can get the hit party game with a pair of new red and blue Joy-Con controllers for $100. It's the first of Nintendo's offers to become available. Select Switch exclusives will be $20-$30 off starting November 19, so we've included a list of the upcoming offers below the list of early deals.
If you're in the market for a Nintendo Switch console, there are multiple bundle deals up for grabs this Black Friday, including a Mario Kart holiday bundle ($300), blue Switch Lite with Animal Crossing, pink Switch Lite with Animal Crossing, and the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Switch OLED bundle. For discounts on controllers and other accessories, check out our overall roundup of the best Nintendo Switch Black Friday deals.
Starting November 19
Here's a brief look at our favorite Nintendo Switch controller deals ahead of Black Friday 2023. If you're looking for a controller specifically for gaming on the go, Hori's Split Pad Pro and Split Pad Compact are excellent choices, especially at these super low prices.

There's something magical about LEGO, and when the beloved building toy is combined with a setting as iconic as the Marvel Universe, the good vibes and fun go through the roof - even through the roof of this massive LEGO Daily Bugle set which is on sale for $300.99 this Black Friday, just a dollar higher than the set's lowest price ever.
Here's my best pick of the Nintendo switch accessories for Black Friday 2023 under $25. You know, it's been a great year for the system thanks to awesome new games like Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Pikmin 4, and so many more. That means it's likely that there's plenty of new Switch owners out there right now looking for some great quality accessories that won't rupture a hole in your bank balance.
The popularity of Dungeons & Dragons may have peaked earlier this year with the OGL fiasco, which supercharged the sales of everything not D&D. That’s created an influx of new and revitalized TTRPGs, and one of the most unusual by far is a system called Everyday Heroes — which is heavily discounted for Black Friday.
8BitDo's Arcade Stick looks simple, but it's highly customizable and works with multiple platforms.
Black Friday is here, and surprisingly, the recently-released Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is already on sale via a number of platforms and retailers. This usually doesn’t happen – I’ve been writing up Black Friday deals posts for years, and you almost never see discounts for that year’s Call of Duty.
Warhammer 40K and its grimdark aesthetic are awesome, but not everyone can devote a significant portion of their time and budget to painting an entire army's worth of miniatures. If you (like me) enjoy the look of the war-torn universe of 41st millennium, but don’t necessarily want to engage in the tabletop game, you might want to check out the vast collection of official Warhammer 40K action figures from Joytoy that are currently on sale at Amazon.
Sony wireless, noise-canceling headphones are a popular holiday gift for a reason. They’re reliably excellent — and have been for decades. For this Black Friday, Amazon has two of my favorite headsets on sale: the Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds and the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones.
PlayStation Plus subscriptions and PlayStation Store gift cards are currently on sale for Black Friday.
It feels like these Black Friday cozy gaming deals were made for me. I've put several (hundreds) of hours into the likes of Animal Crossing: New Horizons as well as dabbled in games such as The Sims 4, and Disney Dreamlight Valley - but if you're just getting started on your cozy gaming journey, now is the best time to pick up these titles and more as they're even cheaper than usual thanks to the annual savings event.
Black Friday is upon us in full force, and that means pretty much every digital storefront you care to name is having a big sale. The Epic Games Store is no exception, and for Black Friday it's once again brought back the Epic Coupon, which applies an automatic discount to every purchase you make. And this time, it's jacked up that discount amount to an impressive 33% off.
