It's not too late to snag these Prime Day Switch deals for under $50

It's not too late to snag a Nintendo Switch Prime Day deal for under $50 if you're in the US, but you have to act fast, as the day is almost over and once the clock strikes midnight, the deals are gonezo.

Sometimes I wish there was a filter on Prime Day gaming deals that only shows offers under $50 because, I'll be quite frank, I'm in the process of buying a house and have absolutely no business buying a new PS5 game or, worse yet, a gaming laptop. That said, I can feel slightly less irresponsible perusing guides like this one, collating all of the best sub-$50 Prime Day deals for sorry folks like me who just can't help themselves. We also have something similar for PS5 Prime Day deals under $50.

Naturally, don't expect to find an actual Switch for $50; the cheapest one we've seen is this refurbished Switch Lite going for $149 from Walmart. What you will find are plenty of Switch accessories, both first and third-party, and cheap games, so strap in and prepare your wallet for these last-minute Prime Day Switch deals you can snatch up for less than $50.

Get a free 30-day trial of Amazon Prime

Get a free 30-day trial of Amazon Prime
You can collect a free trial of Amazon Prime, which - when timed right - will give you access to all the best offers without putting a penny into the subscription. But even if you're not interested in sticking with it, just go for the trial and then cancel it. Sign up then cancel before the $14.99/£7.99 per month cost kicks in.

Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope | $59.99 $39.49 at Amazon
Save $20 - This charming Mario spinoff is now available for much cheaper than usual thanks to Prime Day, and it's one to jump on if you're a fan of cute turn based strategy games. If for nothing else, it's worth it for Rabbid Peach alone.

Save $45 - If you're looking to bag the latest Just Dance game on Switch you're in luck, as it's currently a whopping 75% cheaper thanks to Prime Day. Just keep in mind that this is a 'code in a box' version, so you won't get a physical cartridge. It does weirdly come with some pin badges, though, so at least you'll get something you can hold.

Save $10 -

Metroid Prime Remastered | $48.20 $38.50 at Amazon
Save $10 - This is a brand new record low price on Metroid Prime Remastered, with the previous $48.20 rate giving way to a $38.50 sales price. Those are some odd prices, so this discount is likely in flux right now.

Hawksbill Nintendo Switch handheld controller | $49.95 $39.95 at Amazon

Switch game changer | $32.99 $26.39 at Amazon
Save $6.60 - This accessory is a literal game changer, and you can pick up the clever add on for even less this Prime Day. If you're fed up of fumbling with cartridges every time you want to swap out Tears of the Kingdom for Mario Kart, you should probably jump on this deal.

Just how stinkin' cute is this thing?! It's so tiny! I know it's not much of a saving, but here's what I'm thinking: you can bet your friends that you have the cutest Switch charger in the world, and when you inevitably win that bet, you'll make your money back! Thank me later.

Staff Writer

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
