Despite a price rise at the start of September 2026, Nintendo Switch 2 consoles have just dropped to their lowest price ever in the UK.
Both Smyths and Argos are currently selling the popular console for £354.99, a considerable drop in price compared to the new RRP of £419.99. That's a £65 saving, and a mighty fine deal if I do say so myself.
While the following is speculative and unconfirmed, it's not unreasonable to suggest that this could be a clear-out of stock to make way for the new replaceable battery version of the console confirmed to be launching in Europe this Autumn.
But no matter the reason for the discount, considering the impressive line-up of games Nintendo has been pumping out so far this year, and then looking at what's coming up through to 2027 as well, this might just be the best time to pick up a Switch 2.
Just look at Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, which just got a 10/10 review here on IGN, alongside the slew of other great games already available.
It's honestly baffling when you really look at it: Star Fox, Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, Pokémon Pokopia (soon to get expansions as well), Splatoon Raiders, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, Hades 2, Kirby Air Riders, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, Nintendo Switch Sports Resort, and I could go on!
Look at what's coming up as well, with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake honestly looking like it'll be one of the biggest games of the year, despite going up against the juggernaut that is GTA 6 on PS5 and Xbox. We've also got FromSoftware's Duskbloods to look forward to soon, as well as Metroid Ravenous, which is one of my most anticipated releases of 2027, landing on January 28.
That's just the first-party output as well, with so much to look forward to from third-party games like The Witcher 3: Remastered, Stellar Blade, Metaphor ReFantazio, Guardians of the Galaxy: Encore Edition, Resident Evil 2, 3 and 4, and a ton of other hits.
