We are now tracking the best Amazon price of the year on the 8Bitdo Arcade Stick for Nintendo Switch and Windows at $77.98 shipped. While this is a regularly $90 controller, we very rarely see deals at under $80 on the 8Bitdo Arcade Stick. Today’s offer lands as the best price of the year at Amazon, coming within $6 of the last year’s holiday deal for the lowest we can find. The epic NES-style design is ready for your Nintendo Switch setup, but this arcade controller is also compatible with Windows machines as well. 

8Bitdo has loaded the Arcade Stick with customizable controls, much like the rest of its lineup of controllers, alongside a universal mounting plate for swapping in Sanwa arcade sticks (optional). And as far as connectivity goes, both wired and wireless options are at the ready (Bluetooth, 2.4GHz receiver, or USB-C). 

A more affordable option for Switch gamers comes by way of the officially licensed HORI Switch Fighting Stick Mini. This one lands at $28 under the price of the 8Bitdo model, but it trades out the nostalgic design for a more minimalist gray and black treatment. 

Xbox gamers will want to scope out this sweet deal on 8Bitdo’s drift-free Ultimate Wired controller with Hall Effect joysticks while it’s down at $36 too. 

But while we are talking Nintendo, Hyrule Edition Nintendo Switch Lite pre-orders are now live! There’s no telling how long this new golden Nintendo handheld will remain in stock, or when it will come back thereafter, so grab one now while you can. It ships with a Switch Online Expansion Pack membership and effectively delivers $40 in savings in the process. All of the details you need are right here
