We are down to the last few weeks of launch pricing for the Switch 2 before Nintendo officially raises the MSRP to $499.99, up from $449.99 for the standalone console. If you want to get ahead of the upcoming price hike, now is the time to make your move. And if you are willing to go the refurbished route, you can save even more at Woot.

Nintendo Switch 2 Grade-A Refurb Is $399.99

You can score the Nintendo Switch 2 (Grade A Refurbished) for $399.99 at Woot. That is a $50 savings over the regular price for the standalone console, and $100 less than what the official starting price will be once the new MSRP goes into effect on September 1.

If you are not familiar with Woot, the dedicated deals site is owned by Amazon, making it a reliable vendor both for new and refurbished products.

This deal falls into the latter category and ships in a generic white or brown box, not the retail packaging. As for the condition of the Grade-A refurb, Woot says it includes all OEM accessories and passed a full diagnostic test to ensure "like-new functionality." The site also guarantees no more than "minimal cosmetic damage" and backs the console with a 90-day warranty.

Note that this is just a partial list. There are lots of other games and accessories on sale, including ones on other platforms like the PlayStation 5.
