The original Nintendo Switch is heavily discounted over Amazon Prime Day, but I would still recommend picking up the newer Switch 2 instead. Right now, the original Switch could be yours for just £197.74 (was £239.95) at Amazon, the lowest price that it’s ever been at the retailer.

The Nintendo Switch 2, in contrast, is currently up at only £369.95 (was £385) at Amazon – or £172.21 more. What does that extra cash get you, though? A much newer console with multiple years of support ahead of it, a range of high-quality exclusive games, more premium build quality, and substantially improved specs.

I would definitely advise picking the Nintendo Switch 2 if you have the budget, but that’s not to say the original Switch is a disastrous choice. If you’re shopping for a young child and want something more inexpensive (and smaller), then it could be a good pick.
There are also plenty of Nintendo Switch-compatible games still releasing today, even now that the Switch 2 is out. This includes recent hits like Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream and the upcoming Rhythm Heaven Groove.
Just bear in mind that this support might not continue beyond the next few years.
