Nintendo's official Black Friday 2025 sale is live across every major retailer, and this year it finally includes real savings on the stuff Switch owners actually need. Between Nov. 23-29, you can grab up to 50% off select games, but the smarter play is going for accessories, as there are some real standout deals up for grabs this holiday weekend.

The Best Switch 2 Accessory Deals We've Seen in Black Friday Sales

If you're setting up a fresh Switch 2, or just trying to get your launch unit properly kitted out, the headliner for Black Friday 2025 is that memory cards are actually worth buying right now.

Switch 2-compatible MicroSD Express cards have dropped to the lowest prices of the year for Black Friday, from the modest 256GB to the mega 1TB capacities.

But my absolute favorite deal is on the recently released Samsung P9 512GB microSD Express card for just $74.99. This is the best option for expanding your console's internal memory.

We've spotted strong deals on tempered glass screen protectors, Switch 2 cases from PowerA and Orzly, and a handful of day-one essentials that every new console owner should pick up before retailers quietly nudge prices back to normal.

What's the Deal with MicroSD Express Cards?

In case you missed the memo, the Switch 2 only accepts MicroSD Express, and no, your old MicroSD card isn't going to cut it. The two formats might look interchangeable, but MicroSD Express blows past the old standard in raw speed, hitting around 800MB/s while most legacy cards stall out well below 200MB/s.

For loading times and digital libraries, that difference is enormous. So if you're planning to expand your storage, do it now while the discounts are actually meaningful. If I were a betting man, I'd say that you'd have to wait until mid to late 2026 before prices stabilize again. If you can swing it, I'd recommend just getting in on the deals now so you don't have to worry about running out of space.

Cyber Weekend Deal (Live Nov. 30)

If the other memory card deals are still a little too steep for you, you're better off waiting until Cyber Monday to secure a discount on the 256GB memory cards instead.

Dropping from $59.99 to $39.99, this will certainly catch the attention of Switch 2 owners, especially since microSD Express cards are the only option for expanding their console's internal storage.

This is a great deal, but I'd personally still opt for the $74.99, 512GB option, as that's definitely the best deal for Switch 2 owners over Black Friday.
