Nintendo hasn’t announced any Switch 2 Black Friday 2026 deals yet. As of November 2, 2026 (16:00 UTC), Nintendo’s US news page has no Black Friday post this year, and every Switch 2 system and bundle on the official Nintendo Store is at full price. Black Friday is Friday, November 27. Here are today’s US prices, last year’s offers and Nintendo’s usual timing.
- Switch 2 Black Friday 2026 deals: none announced by Nintendo yet (checked November 2, 16:00 UTC).
- Switch 2 price today: $499.99 on the Nintendo Store. Bundles cost $529.99 and $549.99.
- Last year (2025): Nintendo didn’t cut the Switch 2 price. Its Black Friday deals were on Switch games, amiibo and microSD Express cards.
- When Nintendo usually posts: between November 3 and 12 in recent years. The 2025 post went up on November 10.

Nintendo Switch 2 prices right now (US)
These are the prices on the official Nintendo Store, checked November 2 at 16:00 UTC. None of them is marked as a sale price.
| Switch 2 system or bundle | Nintendo Store price | Stock at check time |
|---|---|---|
| Nintendo Switch 2 (system only) | $499.99 | Available |
| Switch 2 + Nintendo Switch Sports Resort Bundle | $529.99 | Available |

The base price went up on September 1. Nintendo’s May 8, 2026 notice raised the US price from $449.99 to $499.99, citing “changes in market conditions”. So a Black Friday discount would start from $499.99, not the $449.99 launch price.
Both bundles come with a full game download and a 3-month Nintendo Switch Online membership. Nintendo’s retail offers page says they save $37.98 (Mario Kart World) and $27.98 (Sports Resort) compared with buying each part separately. That’s the normal bundle saving, not a Black Friday deal. For Zelda console stock by store, see our Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 restock tracker.
Are retailers already discounting the Switch 2?
Not on new consoles. Target’s own listings, checked November 2 at about 16:00 UTC, match Nintendo’s prices: $499.99 for the console, $529.99 for the Sports Resort bundle, $549.99 for the Mario Kart World bundle and $519.99 for the Zelda edition. None of them had a sale tag. The only discount we found was a refurbished Switch 2 at $479.99 (“reg $499.99”). It isn’t new and it’s sold by a third-party Target Plus seller, not by Target or Nintendo.
Best Buy, Walmart and Amazon product pages didn’t load for us at check time, so their prices aren’t listed here yet.
What Nintendo offered for Black Friday 2025

When will Nintendo announce Switch 2 Black Friday deals?
Nintendo hasn’t given a date. Here’s when its US Black Friday posts went up in recent years, and the biggest hardware offer in each:
| Year | Nintendo US post | Deals started | Console offer |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | November 10 | eShop Nov 20, stores Nov 23 | None (Switch 2 at full price) |
| 2024 | November 12 | eShop after Nov 19, stores Nov 24 | Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundles at $299.99 (Switch) and $349.99 (OLED, new that year); $20 off select Joy-Con and the Pro Controller |

| 2021 | November 8 | November 21 | Switch + Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundle for $299.99 |
That’s history, not a promise for 2026. In 2025, the first holiday for the Switch 2, Nintendo’s own offers were games and accessories, with no console price cut.
