Opens in a new window Credit: Verizon Free Nintendo Switch from Verizon When you switch to Verizon Home Internet

It's officially Nintendo Switch 2 release week, and we're continually being reminded of the chaos this little console is stirring up. As presale stock dwindles, so do your options: If you definitely want to upgrade from your old Switch, you may be brawling in person at your local Target or Best Buy.

If you never owned a Switch at all, maybe settling for a first gen Switch doesn't sound that bad — especially if it were, say, completely free? Verizon has brought back its free Nintendo Switch promo through June 4. It requires switching to Verizon Home Internet and maintaining your plan for at least 65 days. Plans start at $35 per month.

So this is essentially a total savings of $299.99, though it sounds like even more of a steal compared to the Switch 2's $449.99 price tag — and that's beforeany games are added to the bill. Unless you'd be buying the Switch 2 specifically to play Mario Kart Worldon day one (and you'd be valid for that), it might be worthwhile to snag the free Switch to at least hold you over until more Switch 2 games come out.

The main differences between the Switch and Switch 2 include a larger, more high-res screen on the Switch 2, plus HDR and 120Hz support. Obviously, the Switch 2 can handle a shit ton of new games that won't be available on the original Switch. You can also use a Joy-Con as a mouse. The first Switch has lasted people for nearly a decade, so if the Switch 2 possesses similar longevity, splurging on this steep new console now isn't a horrible investment. But until more games are released, it may not be at its best value just yet.
