But if you'd rather get one of the other Switch models, then this is the cheapest place you can buy the OLED edition of the console.

You can get the Nintendo Switch OLED model for £229.99 via online market place OnBuy.com.

Plus you'll also receive £11.50 instant cashback on the item, so you'll only pay £218.49 for the console.

The OLED model works similar to the original Switch, allowing players to game at home and on the go.

It also has the same hybrid features but boasts a larger OLED display, a wide adjustable stand, 64GB of internal storage and enhanced audio.

Nintendo Switch 2 is coming soon

Nintendo confirmed details of the Switch 2 in January, with a teaser trailer showing off a sleek new design including black controllers with splashes of colour.

The tech brand is officially announcing details of the console release during Nintendo Direct on 2 April.

Nintendo will then hold in-person events in cities around the world in the weeks after launch. The London date will be 11-13 April and will allow gamers to get their hands on the console and test it out.

Leaked information about the new Switch hints at a console with a larger screen and more processing power in order to play modern games. Fans will also be able to play original Switch games on the console after Nintendo confirmed backward capacity.
