So far, the best Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals are at Gamestop, Kohl's, and Best Buy. We know for sure that the deals at Best Buy and Gamestop are on the last generation of the Nintendo Switch, which came out in 2017 (model number HAC-001).

There's a possibility that the deal at Kohl's is actually on the newest version of the Switch, which you'll know by the updated HAC-001(-01) model number. The deal doens't say if it's the new version, but we'll let you know if Kohl's confirms the model number.

The difference between the old and new Switch console versions is that the newer one â released August 2019 with a "HAC-001(-01)" model number â has a slightly better battery life.Â

Will the newest Nintendo Switch go on sale for Black Friday?Â

Though Nintendo released a new iteration of the Switch in August 2019, all deals on the Nintendo Switch appear to be for the older model (that is, the same 2017 model that was on offer last year). This is likely because Nintendo has too much surplus stock of the old model. The only real difference is that the older model has a slightly shorter battery life than the newer 2019 model, but it can be hard to tell the difference between the two.

If you are only after the 2019 model, you'll want to look for model number HAC-001(-01), and also check the serial number, which should start with "XKW."

We'll update you as soon as we find out if the newer model of the Nintendo Switch will be on sale, but so far it's looking unlikely.

What Nintendo Switch games will be on sale for Black Friday?

So far, according to a press release from Nintendo, several Mario games, as well as The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Octopath Traveler, and more will be on sale at several major retailers starting November 27. We'll probably see a lot more deals as Black Friday grows closer.

In fact, a bunch of Nintendo Switch games are on sale right now at Best Buy for up to $25 off.

Will the Nintendo Switch price drop in 2019?

Judging from what we've seen since last year, probably not until a new model is released with even better battery life, but rumors are abound of a Switch 2 or Switch Pro to be released in 2020.
