Right now, Amazon is offering a $25 discount when you spend at least $250 on select gaming products, which includes handhelds like the standard and OLED models of the Nintendo Switch. Purchasing a Nintendo Switch OLED will discount the final price to $325 at checkout, while the vanilla Switch is on sale for $275. While this isn’t the lowest price we’ve ever seen on either of these handhelds, Amazon’s promotion is the best way to save on a factory mint model of the Nintendo Switch.

Until we get the sequel to the Nintendo Switch, the Switch OLED is currently the flagship Nintendo handheld, with its larger and more contrast-rich OLED display, improved speakers and kickstand, and 64 GB of internal storage, compared to the 32 GB found on the standard model. Otherwise, the OLED version is identical to previous models of the Switch in terms of features and performance is capable of playing all of the same games, and can supplement its storage with microSD cards if you need more space.

This deal technically also includes the Switch Lite, but since this handheld usually costs $199.99, you won’t qualify for the $25 unless you throw in a copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, or a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.
