You might not know this if you grew up in the later eras of Nintendo, but the company ran an esports competition called the Nintendo World Championships way back in 1990. The event toured 29 American cities and players from across the country gathered to compete using a custom Nintendo Entertainment System Game Pak. The cartridge used in the event went on to become a prized collectors’ item, but now, players will get a chance to buy a physical item directly inspired by it.
The Nintendo Switch OLED is $25 cheaper on Amazon right now

Right now, Amazon is offering a $25 discountwhen you spend at least $250 on select gaming products, which includes handhelds like the standard and OLED models of the Nintendo Switch. Purchasing a Nintendo Switch OLED will discount the final price to $325 at checkout, while the vanilla Switch is on sale for $275. While this isn’t the lowest price we’ve ever seen on either of these handhelds, Amazon’s promotion is the best way to save on a factory mint model of the Nintendo Switch.

Until we get the sequel to the Nintendo Switch, the Switch OLED is currently the flagship Nintendo handheld, with its larger and more contrast-rich OLED display, improved speakers and kickstand, and 64 GB of internal storage, compared to the 32 GB found on the standard model. Otherwise, the OLED version is identical to previous models of the Switch in terms of features and performance is capable of playing all of the same games, and can supplement its storage with microSD cards if you need more space.

This deal technically also includes the Switch Lite, but since this handheld usually costs $199.99, you won’t qualify for the $25 unless you throw in a copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, or a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.

Nintendo Switch OLED has a $66 discount, but there’s a catch
Gamers know that Nintendo Switch deals almost always get sold out quickly, so you should be quick in taking advantage of Walmart’s offer for the Nintendo Switch OLED. From its sticker price of $350, it’s available for only $284 for savings of $66, which is enough to get you a Nintendo Switch game.
