The Switch 2 is being framed as a solid holiday buy at BJ's, with free shipping on the $429.99 member price and a reported path to even lower effective cost through price matching or discounted gift cards. The deal stands out because a September price hike is expected, and the console is being treated as better value than other handhelds right now. The main knocks are the high base price, expensive games, and frustration with Nintendo's key cards and digital rights approach. Overall, it reads as a timely way to lock in the console before costs climb further.

  • Discount stacking reportedly lowered the effective cost by using discounted Nintendo gift cards or eShop cards before buying through Nintendo.

  • The "InClub only" listing still allowed ordering for shipment, with only in-store pickup potentially restricted.

  • A Best Buy price match plus switching pickup to a local store reportedly produced an easy $70 savings before a September price increase.

  • BJ's member pricing reportedly included free shipping and a limit of one per member.

  • Some deal strategies rely on discounted gift cards or eShop balances, which may not be straightforward for every buyer to execute.

  • Nintendo's "key cards" were criticized as an anti-consumer practice, and the deal was still rejected despite the price drop.

  • Concerns were raised that Nintendo could add internet-required DRM for non-physical games, potentially affecting Switch 2 titles.

  • Switch 2 pricing may not drop soon, and it could rise again after price increases.

Loving the drop in prices for this console. Nintendo really overstepped on this device, too expensive for too little and games priced in the stratosphere. Nintendo needed a kick in the arse, it's good to see it happening. Still wouldn't buy, key cards are nothing but an insult to the consumer and a boon for Nintendo. Hard pass indeed!
The Switch 2 is one of the (if not THE) fastest selling console of all time. The price is also going up in a month or so.

The price of the console is already announced to go UP in September.

As for too expensive...my PS3 from 2006 says "hold my beer."

$50 price hike on Sep 1. Not sure it will stick b/c $500 and no game is nuts. (I have both the 2 and OLED). But if you are thinking ahead for the holidays this may be the be the best deal.
PS3 was $600 with no game 18 years ago, and it didn't just work to reuse your PS2 controllers on that

Buy $500 worth of Nintendo gift cards from Costco for $450 and then buy the deal from Nintendo.com to get the console with a game. Better deal if you want one of the games

The weird misplaced hate for Nintendo is fascinating. Do you have the same hate for Steam? Monopolized the entire PC market, but since 12 year old games can be had for $5 to sit in a backlog...

I am most certainly not buying Switch 2, key cards are a scam to make people think they own physical games. I am positive by the end of the life of this console Nintendo will introduce Internet required DRM for non-physical games... Aka all switch 2 games. Sony already implemented this for PS5..

No, my ideal price is ZERO, since I would not even consider buying a console to use dumbass key cards on instead of owning physical games. Which brings me to $80 games that are crap. I gave plenty of systems and games that I OWN. If the world spontaneously combusts and I manage to still be alive, at least I can get my game on without intervention from the Internet or a subscription card. Enjoy being owned. 🤣
