Less than a month out from the Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake dropping on November 5, Prime Day has arrived at exactly the right moment. If your Switch 2 setup still needs work, the sale runs October 6 and 7, and the discounts cover pretty much every accessory you'd want before returning to Hyrule. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is one of the most anticipated Nintendo releases in years, and getting your hardware sorted now means you're not scrambling at launch.
Controllers worth grabbing before November 5
Here's the thing: playing Ocarina of Time docked on a big screen with Joy-Con 2 is fine, but a proper controller makes a real difference over a 20-plus-hour playthrough. Two solid options are currently discounted.
The 8BitDo Ultimate 2 has dropped from $69.99 to $51.69 at Amazon, a $18.30 saving that puts it near its lowest-ever price. It's built specifically for Switch 2 and sits comfortably as the best value controller for the platform. The GameSir Super Nova is the sharper deal at $29.99 (down from $49.99 at Best Buy), a full $20 off. It runs wirelessly, ships with its own charging dock, and packs extra customization options into a budget-friendly package. If you want TMR sticks and can stretch a little further, the GameSir Cyclone 2 is down to $44.79 from $55.99 at Amazon.
Headsets that hold up through a full dungeon crawl
Ocarina of Time's audio design is half the experience. The Water Temple hits differently when you can actually hear what's happening around you. Budget and premium options are both on sale.
The Turtle Beach Airlite Fit is down to $14.99 from $27.99 at Amazon, nearly half price and its lowest-ever recorded price. It's a wired headset, so no battery anxiety mid-session. For something premium, the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Omni has dropped $55 to $344.99, which is still a significant outlay but represents its cheapest price to date. If earbuds are more your speed, the SteelSeries Arctis GameBuds are $40 off at $159.99.
Pro tip: the Arctis GameBuds are listed on Amazon under PlayStation and Xbox tags, but they work on Switch 2 without issue.
Carry cases and grips for playing on the go
If you plan to take the Ocarina of Time remake portable, protecting the Switch 2 screen matters. Several cases have price cuts running through October 7.
The Belkin Nintendo Switch 2 Charging Case Pro is down to $80.74 from $99.99. It's the top-rated carry case for the platform and this is $4 below its previous lowest price. A 10,000mAh battery built into the case handles the Switch 2's battery life problem directly. For a simpler option, the Fastsnail Switch 2 Protective Case sits at $16.99 (down from $19.99), while the PowerA Slim Case is $14.99 from $19.99 if you just need basic cartridge storage and protection.
Storage expansion and Zelda-themed extras
Ocarina of Time on Switch 2 will need space. The SanDisk 512GB microSD Express Card is down $70 to $129.99 at Amazon, its lowest price ever. That's a substantial saving on the fastest microSD format the Switch 2 supports, and 512GB gives you plenty of room beyond just this one title.
For fans who want something a little more thematic, the Hori Nintendo Switch Cargo Pouch in Zelda branding is down to $18.59 from $29.99. It hasn't been formally reviewed, but at that price it's worth a look for anyone who wants their carry setup to match the occasion. The Spigen GlasTR EZ Fit screen protector rounds things out at $15.99, down $4 from its usual price.
What this means for players heading into November
The timing here lines up well. Prime Day ends October 7, which gives you nearly a month to receive everything before the Ocarina of Time remake releases on November 5. The storage deal is probably the most time-sensitive pick since the microSD Express Card at $129.99 for 512GB is a genuinely strong price for that spec.
The key here is prioritizing based on how you play. Docked players should focus on the controller deals. Handheld-first players should look at the cases and storage. Anyone who plays both modes will want to think about the headset options since they travel easily between setups.
