Nintendo Switch Lite deals are hard to come by, but Amazon is switching things up by throwing in a $20 promotional credit with the purchase of the 32GB handheld console.

Free gift with Nintendo Switch Lite

Amazon's Nintendo Switch Lite promotion offers shoppers a free $20 promotional credit with coupon code 8RLOZI4Z5INC. To activate the deal, you must purchase the 32GB Lite console, which sells for $199, directly from Amazon and enter the promo code during checkout.
