Best gaming console deals: cheapest prices on PS5, Xbox S and X and Switch

If you've almost always been a PC gamer and are thinking of getting into console gaming, there are a lot of great deals you can take advantage of right now. That said, while there are certainly deals here and there that include Xbox Series S and X deals, PlayStation 5 deals, and Nintendo Switch deals, a lot of them are bundle deals or refurbished models. It seems there aren't a ton of great offers on the base console right now, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, considering the bundled deals are pretty good and something you may have wanted to snag at some point in the future, anyway. Either way, we've collected some of the best console deals we could find below to save you the hassle of searching.
Xbox Series S 1TB + 1TB Storage Expansion Card -- starting at $430, was $500

The Xbox Series S is the less powerful but cheaper option out of the newest generation Xbox line. When comparing the Xbox Series S versus the Xbox Series X, the Series S takes a hit in all the component categories. That means it's not quite as fast. But if you're not hung up on getting the optimal performance out of your system, you'll actually notice very few differences. The two biggest ones are the Series S's inability to play in 8K, and its lack of a disc drive. Most people don't even have 8K TVs, so that shouldn't be an issue. If you're alright with downloading all of your games straight to the console's memory (and you have a separate DVD or Blu-Ray player), the Series S will work fine. It's quite a bit smaller anyway, and easier to fit on a shelf.
