Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals were never guaranteed - stock shortages were a real concern in the last few months. However, you'll find not only the original console in stock right now, but also the rare Animal Crossing special edition. Amazon itself has run out of stock now, but in a bid to compete over Amazon Prime Day itself, Best Buy has plenty of units available. .

That Animal Crossing Edition is on the shelves for the first time since March, which makes this an excellent opportunity if you've been waiting for Nintendo Switch stock since it first flew off the shelves all those months ago. 

You'll find the handheld hybrid console available for its regular $299 MSRP right now, though the Animal Crossing Edition is also available for $299 at Best Buy

You'll find more information on this deal just below, but you can also browse our full round up of the best Nintendo Switch deals available now. Or, check out the latest Nintendo Switch Lite bundles hitting the market.
