Nintendo in Kenya

The exclusives nobody else has, on the only console you can take with you.

Nintendo does not compete on raw power, and it never has. It competes on games you cannot play anywhere else — Mario, Zelda, Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Smash Bros — and on hardware built around a genuinely different idea of how you play. That trade is why a Switch happily sits next to a PS5 rather than replacing it.

The hybrid design is the practical draw: the same console docks to your TV and detaches into a handheld, so it survives power cuts, travel and a shared living room in a way a fixed console does not. Local multiplayer out of the box, with two controllers already in the package, also makes it the easiest console to put in front of guests or family.

Nintendo is one of the deepest parts of our catalogue — consoles, controllers, and first-party games. Everything is genuine retail stock with a 12-month official brand warranty.

The Nintendo range, explained

What each family is actually for, so you can tell the difference before you spend.

Switch 2

The current generation. Bigger, sharper screen and much faster hardware, and it still plays most Switch games.

Switch OLED

The best previous-generation model for handheld play — a richer screen and a far better kickstand.

Switch (standard)

The original hybrid. Docks to the TV or plays handheld, at the lowest entry price.

Switch Lite

Handheld only, no TV dock, smaller and cheaper. For one person who plays on the move.

Joy-Con & Pro Controller

Joy-Cons split for instant two-player; the Pro Controller is the comfortable choice for long sessions.

First-party games

Nintendo's own titles rarely discount, so they hold value — worth buying on release rather than waiting.

Landmark Nintendo releases

  • 2025

    Nintendo Switch 2

    The generational jump: larger screen, far more performance, and backwards compatibility with most Switch titles.

  • 2021

    Nintendo Switch OLED

    Still the sweet spot for handheld-first players who don't need Switch 2 performance.

  • 2019

    Nintendo Switch Lite

    The cheapest way into Nintendo's library, as long as you never need the TV.

Expected next from Nintendo

Not confirmed by Nintendo. These are expectations based on the brand’s past release pattern, not announcements. Specifications, names, pricing and dates can all change, and we don’t take pre-orders against them.

    Further first-party Switch 2 titles

    Nintendo announces games at its own Direct broadcasts rather than on a fixed calendar. Nothing specific is confirmed.

  • No confirmed date

    Hardware revisions

    Nintendo has historically revised hardware mid-generation, but has announced nothing. Treat online dates as rumour.

Which Nintendo to buy

If you want the newest games and best performance, buy Switch 2. If you mostly play handheld and want to spend less, a Switch OLED is still excellent. Only choose Lite if you are certain you will never dock it to a TV.
