There is no better time than the holidays to get together and play games as a family. If you thought about gifting a Nintendo Switch OLED this holiday season (or getting one for yourself) but didn’t get around to it, now could be a great time.

The Nintendo Switch OLED 64GB is on sale for $ 299.99 at Walmart as of Dec. 27. That’s a savings of $ 69.98, or almost 19%, from its regular Walmart price of $ 369.97 — although note that, on the Nintendo website, it retails for $ 349.99, so this deal is still over 14% off its price there.

Whether you’re looking to upgrade from the original Switch or get one for the first time, the Nintendo Switch OLED is packed with features that make it a great portable gaming console.

It features a vibrant 7-inch OLED screen, providing clearer and more vivid colors than the original Switch’s LCD screen. This makes for an enhanced visual experience, especially when playing games with rich graphics. With 64GB of internal storage, double the 32GB found in the standard Switch, you have more space to store games and downloadable content (DLC) directly on the device — although it also features a microSD port so you can expand its storage capabilities.

If you’re big on tabletop games or using the Joy-Con controllers separately, the OLED model includes a wide, adjustable stand, offering more stability and flexibility in viewing angles than the original — although it has hybrid functionality, so you can play in tabletop mode, handheld mode, or docked to a TV.

The Nintendo Switch OLED has enhanced audio from the built-in speakers, improving the gaming experience when not using headphones. Depending on the game and screen settings, you can get between 4.5 to 9 hours of playtime on a full charge.

With the Nintendo Switch OLED, you’ll have access to over 5,000 games, from family-friendly titles to more intense gaming experiences — whether you buy the physical game cards or prefer a digital download.

Get together and play some games this holiday season by getting the Nintendo Switch OLED 64GB at Walmart today.
