Summary
Since everyone looking for a good deal will head straight toAmazonnext week, Walmart has claimed this week as its own. Running a deals event until Thursday, Walmart has discounts on all sorts of video game stuff, including a heavily discountedNintendo Switch Lite. The teal Animal Crossing Switch Lite, to be exact, which you can get for $159 rather than the $200 it normally retails for.
The teal Switch Lite, which hasAnimal Crossingleaves printed on the back, was released last year alongside a coral Isabelle-themed console that was exclusive to Target. The teal version, dubbed Timmy And Tommy’s Aloha Edition, is a Walmart exclusive, meaning not only is it on sale, but Walmart is the only place you’re able to or ever will be able to buy it, excluding through third-party sellers.
A Switch console all by itself for $159 is a pretty great deal, but what makes the Animal Crossing-themed Switch Lite even more appealing, even when full price, is that it comes with a copy ofAnimal Crossing: New Horizons. Not a physical copy, but a download code for the hit Switch game which at 45 million copies is the second best-selling title on the console behind onlyMario Kart 8 Deluxe. A digital copy of New Horizons costs $59.99 and is very rarely discounted, effectively bringing the price of the Switch Lite available through the link in the box below to less than $100.
Possibly The Cheapest Switch You’ll Ever Find, And It Includes A $60 Game
Timmy And Tommy’s Aloha Edition Nintendo Switch Lite
The teal Timmy and Tommy’s Aloha Edition of the Nintendo Switch Lite. Embossed with Animal Crossing leaves on the back and comes with a digital copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
The only downside of the Switch Lite is you can’t switch between playing it docked and handheld. Despite the name, the Switch Lite is handheld only and its Joy-Con cannot be detached. It’s a small price to pay to get a system that appears to be well on its way to becoming the best-selling console of all time for $159. Even onceNintendohas released whatever will replace the Switch, it’s hard to imagine any version of its current console will be available for less than this.
If you already have a Switch and you’re on the hunt for Nintendo deals at Walmart this week,the deal you may get on its Mario Party Joy-Con bundlemight be even better than the Switch Lite one above. The bundle, which Nintendo released last year and retails for $100, is currently available for only $69. Since a pair of Joy-Con is usually $70 all by itself, that basically means Walmart is paying you $1 to take a copy ofSuper Mario Partywith you. I know it’s the worst of the two Mario Party games on Switch, but that’s still a fantastic deal.
