Amazon Prime Day is in full swing, but Amazon may not be the cheapest place to pick up a Nintendo Switch this week as a lesser-known retailer is offering one for £200 less than the giant retailer
Over on Amazon, this Nintendo Switch Mario Red & Blue Edition isn’t included in the wide variety of sales, and currently boasts a price tag of £581.54, even steeper than over at Nintendo’s own store, where the same Mario Edition Switch is available for £279.99.
But for Nintendo fans or shoppers keen to pick up the Mario-themed gaming console for a loved one, Wowcher is the cheapest place to go, as this Limited-Edition Switch is reduced all the way down to £239.99.

The original Nintendo Switch has a very distinct design that shaped present-day handheld gaming. It had a screen in the middle, with two detachable controllers, allowing you to play in handheld or docked mode. The screen measures 6.2 inches and features an LCD display with a 1280 x 720 resolution, which outputs 1080p (Full HD) when connected to a compatible dock.
Boasting 32GB of internal storage, this gaming console lets you store your favourite games and save with ease. Armed with Wi-Fi & HDMI connectivity, gamers can simply plug in and play anywhere, any time. Plus, the 720p and 1080p outputs provide crisp HD visuals for immersive gaming sessions.
The Nintendo Switch Mario Red & Blue Edition sports a distinct red-and-blue colour scheme in honour of Mario’s iconic outfit. This bundle includes red Joy-Con Controllers with blue straps, a blue Joy-Con grip, a red Nintendo Switch dock and a red Nintendo Switch system.
This edition also includes a stylised Mario Red & Blue Edition Carrying Case and a screen protector to help protect the Nintendo Switch when gaming on the go.
Wowcher would normally sell this limited-edition set for £299, but is now offering shoppers the chance to pick up a bundle for £239.
For those who don’t mind splashing some cash, you can find the same bundle up for grabs at Nintendo’s website for £279 or head over to Amazon to pick one up for £581.54.
It is worth noting that Amazon does offer the same Nintendo Switch (Mario Red & Blue Edition) for a lower price of £329.99, but the retailer currently flags that this option only has one left in stock, so you’ll need to hurry.
