Nintendo’s so-called Switch 2 might be in the works, but it reportedly won’t arrive until early 2025 despite having originally been pegged for release later this year. Fortunately, if you were hoping to jump on recent standouts like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or any of the indie titles announced during Nintendo’s latest Direct event sooner rather than later, Dell has you covered.
Right now, Dell is offering a $75 gift card when you buy a Nintendo Switch OLED with white Joy-Con for $349.99. That’s money you can use toward a variety of Switch games and accessories, including Nintendo’s Switch Pro Controller and Super Mario Bros. Wonder, as well as non-gaming electronics like Philips Hue’s Lightstrip Plus, Google’s third-gen Nest Learning Thermostat, and the new Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max.

The Nintendo Switch OLED model packs in a bunch of subtle refinements, including a seven-inch OLED display, improved audio performance, and a better kickstand.
Compared to the original Switch, the OLED model boasts a brighter seven-inch panel, one that makes colors truly pop when you’re playing in handheld mode. It also comes with an adjustable kickstand that’s far more stable than the flimsy kickstand on the standard model, as well as better speakers and a dedicated LAN port on the included dock. Plus, thanks to its built-in 64GB of storage, you’ll be able to play more games without immediately having to pick up a beefier microSD card.
