Nintendo deal: Buy a Switch Online Family Membership, get a free 128GB microSD card

Today’s Dealmaster is headlined by a nice bundle for Nintendo Switch owners: Those who pick up a 12-month Nintendo Switch Online Family Membership at its usual going rate of $35 can currently get a 128GB SanDisk microSD card for no extra cost. For reference, the microSD card included in the deal typically retails around $25 online. The offer is available at several retailers: Nintendo says it will run at most stores until June 19, with the exception of Best Buy, where it’ll last until June 20.

Generally speaking, Nintendo’s paid online service isn’t quite as essential for Switch owners as Sony’s PlayStation Plus and Microsoft’s Xbox Live are for their respective platforms, which tend to put a greater emphasis on multiplayer games as whole. Still, a membership is required to utilize the online components of several (but not all) Switch games—including Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Overwatch, and the like—and make cloud save backups. It gives access to more than 100 mostly-well-regarded NES and Super Nintendo games, too, as well a couple of inventive battle royale games like Tetris 99 and Pac-Man 99. Note that this deal specifically applies to a Family Membership, which can cover up to eight different Switch users in a designated “family group.” If you’re only buying for yourself, a 12-month solo membership still goes for $20.

The microSD card, meanwhile, is SanDisk’s officially licensed and plainly named microSDXC Card for Nintendo Switch, which we’ve recommended in the past. It’s a UHS-I card with a U3 or V30 speed rating—not the fastest option on the market, but speedy enough to comfortably record 4K video and plenty capable of stashing and running games on the current Switch hardware. A microSD card is still borderline essential for Switch owners given that the console only comes with 32GB of storage on its own; this one has remained quick and dependable in our long-term testing.

If you don’t need another subscription, though, our deals roundup has a handful of early Prime Day deals on Amazon services and Echo devices, the lowest price we’ve tracked for Roku’s newest 4K media streamer, Microsoft’s ongoing E3 Xbox games sale, a couple of buy-two-get-one-free sales at Amazon and Target, and much more. You can check out our full roundup below.
