Nintendo Switch is now available at Gameseek UK with an 80 GBP discount. Gameseek UK is currently accepting pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch at less than 200 GBP. Its games are also showing a steady drop in price as the console's release date nears.
According to reports, the Nintendo Switch was priced at 279.99 GBP without any bundled game and it was relatively expensive. However, Gameseek now offers it at a significantly marked down price with an 80 GBP price cut.

Reports claim that Gameseek has already set its pre-order Nintendo Switch price at 198 GBP several months ago even when the Japanese company revealed the actual UK price is 279.99 GBP. "This time we will be doing the mega offer on the Neon Red / Neon Blue Nintendo Switch consoles," Gameseek posts on its website.
The price of Nintendo Switch games continues to drop as well. According to reports, Nintendo has slashed the suggested retail price of The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild in the UK. This is after a supposed buyer feedback. Right now, a couple of first-party games for Nintendo Switch are seeing a price drop. Some of the titles are 1-2-Switch, Arms and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The games were first priced at 49.99 and 59.99 GBP but now these can be purchased at 34.99, 49.99 and 44.99 GBP through pre-order from various retailers.
Several new gaming consoles were launched in 2016 but the Nintendo Switch has been the most raved one in spite of its polarized audiences. The hybrid console was revealed last October and many think that it could attract Nintendo's first-party market and other gamers who are also PlayStation 4 and Xbox One owners.
However, others were skeptical about its housing and graphical and processing power. Now there are reports that porting games from one platform to another will be very hard on the Switch. When the Nintendo Switch is used at home, its component slots connect to a TV set.
Games come on small cartridges and about 80 games are currently in development, including a new Mario game called Super Mario Odyssey which will be released late in 2017. Another new title unveiled is a motion-controlled boxing game called Arms, which will be out this spring.
