You can also snag a manufacturer refurbished Nintendo Switch OLED for $304 at Target. Meanwhile, the Switch Lite has dropped to just $187 at Walmart!
Current Switch owners can enjoy low-cost games with some essential titles starting from just $14, and also rare discounts on Nintendo's first-party software.
