There are a lot of great handhelds out there, such as the Steam Deck or the Legion Go, but even so, the Nintendo Switch still holds its position at the top of the pack. A lot of that is not necessarily due to the hardware itself, even though the console is certainly a thin and light, but also because of a great selection of first-party games that almost everybody will find enjoyable. On top of that, you get to choose between three different versions, the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, or Nintendo Switch OLED, so you can pick the one that fits your budget the most.

To that end, we’ve collected some great Nintendo Switch video game deals and accessories deals, so be sure to check those out. Or, if you’d rather have one of the more traditional consoles, check out these game console deals instead.

Best Nintendo Switch deals

The OLED model of the Nintendo Switch doesn’t actually significantly change any of the internals, such as the processor or RAM, so you’re essentially getting the same handheld console. The only difference is that the screen is an OLED one, and if you’re the type of person who would mostly play the Switch in handheld mode, it’s absolutely worth grabbing, even though it’s significantly pricier.

Even though it’s been several years since the original Nintendo Switch came out, it’s still a very iconic handheld console. One of the big changes that nobody was expecting was the detachable controllers that can be used individually, making this a perfect console for playing with others. Granted, it doesn’t have next-gen graphics or anything like that, but given that it has one of the best first-party lineup of games, it doesn’t really need to, and with the included dock, it’s great to play on pretty much any screen.

Sony’s wild PSN login patent could turn the DualSense into a security gatekeeper
A newly published filing outlines controller-based sign-ins for PlayStation users, aiming to make stolen accounts harder to exploit.

Sony has filed a PSN login patent, first spotted by RespawnFirst, that would pull the DualSense controller into the sign-in process. A PlayStation console would start the request, then the controller would help confirm that the account holder is close enough to approve access.

For players, the appeal is easy to see. PSN account abuse can lead to unauthorized purchases, lost access, and attempts to resell established accounts. Sony already offers 2-step verification and passkeys, but this idea adds a hardware check to the login chain.

This study found a surprising mental health perk hiding in your game library
Researchers surveyed 2,252 adults and found that specific game genres, not gaming in general, line up with lower loneliness and stronger emotional resilience.

A new study has found that adults who play certain video games report feeling less lonely and more emotionally resilient than people who don't play games at all. The findings challenge the idea that gaming is just a way to escape from real life and instead tie specific kinds of games to real, measurable shifts in how people cope with stress and isolation.

GTA 6 may be far away, so Rockstar gave GTA 5 a fresh coat of paint
Grand Theft Auto 5

With Grand Theft Auto 6 now just months away, Rockstar Games is giving longtime Grand Theft Auto 5 players a reason to revisit Los Santos. The company has announced that owners of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of GTA 5 will receive a free upgrade to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of the game.

The move comes as Rockstar ramps up excitement for GTA 6, which is currently scheduled to launch on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles. Previously, upgrading from the older console versions to the current-generation release required a separate purchase, typically costing around $10. Beginning Thursday, however, eligible players will be able to move to the newer version at no additional cost.
