Jelly Deals: Nintendo Switch discounted to £247 at, um, Maplin

Get it while you can.

Those of you out there who don't mind being a little bit of a vulture are able to pick up a decent deal on a Nintendo Switch right now by going to Maplin.

Maplin has, unfortunately, gone into administration as of the time of writing, so it's perhaps not surprising to see some of the company's stock being cut in price in-store and online.

Most notably, you can pick up a Nintendo Switch console for £247.49 at present, with free delivery (or click and collect), which makes this the cheapest way to get a Switch console for the time being. Unfortunately, this doesn't include any games, but you'll still be getting a Switch for just over £30 off the console's RRP.

Alternatively, if you'd prefer to go all-in on some of the Switch's freshest re-released titles, you can opt to go for the bundle available over at The Game Collection, which features a Switch console, Doom, Skyrim and Rocket League, all for £329.95 while stock lasts.

Meanwhile, head to Jelly Deals and you can find the current batch of today's best deals - which include Nintendo Labo pre-orders, Resident Evil 7 and more.
