Some Switch 2 accessories and upgraded games are on sale for Prime Day

05 mins

The Nintendo Switch 2 is not discounted for Prime Day. Just getting that out of the way. The fastest-selling console ever came out on June 5th, and only just hit Amazon’s storefront for reservation a couple of days ago. Nevertheless, I thought it’d be fun to share some Prime Day deals I found on Switch 2 accessories and games that have been patched to run better on the new console. Whether you already have a Switch 2 or you’ll be getting one soon, there are some great money-saving opportunities below (ones that I wish I had a couple of weeks ago).

tomtoc slim carrying case for the Switch 2

This hard case has a soft touch and a slim fit, and includes a flap that can hold up to 12 cartridges as it protects the console’s screen.

Where to Buy:

$47.99 $29.59 at Amazon

Logitech Brio 100 webcam

The official Nintendo Switch 2 webcam is expensive, so we suggest getting this cheaper Logitech 1080p model instead.

Where to Buy:

$39.99 $24.99 at Amazon

Ugreen USB-C-to-ethernet adapter

For when you want to wire in when you’re on-the-go (and away from the dock), I can verify that this model works with the Switch 2.

Where to Buy:

$14.99 $9.99 at Amazon

8BitDo Ultimate 2 wireless controller

For something cheaper — and in some ways better — than Nintendo’s official Pro controller, there’s 8BitDo’s Ultimate 2, which works with the original Switch and Switch 2.

Where to Buy:

$69.99 $62.99 at Amazon (black, with coupon) $69.99 $62.99 at Amazon (white, at checkout)

GameSir G8 Plus mobile controller

While I haven’t tried it yet, many report that the Switch 2 works nearly perfectly with this model. I say “nearly” because apparently the exposed Joy-Con 2 pins rub against the controller a bit, which may worry some.

Where to Buy:

$79.99 $49.99 at Walmart $79.99 $63.99 at Amazon $79.99 at Gamesir

Anker 25,000mAh Laptop Power Bank

While its 100W top charging speed is overkill for the Switch 2, this 25,000mAh battery contains multiple recharges for the console, as well as some of your other gadgets.

Where to Buy:

$134.99 $94.99 at Amazon $134.99 $94.99 at Anker (code WSPDV2LFUIUK)

amFilm OneTouch two-pack of glossy screen protectors

You really should protect your Switch 2’s screen. These glossy glass covers are easy to install, and let the full glow of the screen shine through.

Where to Buy:

$15.99 $8.48 at Amazon

amFilm OneTouch two-pack of matte screen protectors

While equally protective as glossy protectors, these anti-glare matte covers tone down reflections, but in doing so, they slightly tone down how vibrant colors appear.

Where to Buy:

$15.99 $12.34 at Amazon

Splatoon 3

Splatoon 3 is one of a handful of original Switch games to get a free update that drastically enhances visual quality as well as frame rate. It’s the way the game was always meant to be experienced.

2017’s Super Mario Odyssey is timeless, even more so with the Switch 2 update that makes the game run at higher resolution with HDR enabled.
