We test your Nintendo on the day it arrives at our facility. Once it passes inspection, payment is processed the same day.

Before sending your Nintendo, back up your saved game data to the cloud if you have a Nintendo Switch Online membership, deregister the console as your primary console in the eShop, and perform a factory reset by going to System Settings > System > Formatting Options > Initialise Console. Remove any game cartridges, microSD cards or accessories you want to keep. This protects your account and ensures we can process your trade-in quickly.
We accept a wide range of Nintendo models including the Nintendo Switch OLED, Nintendo Switch (standard and V2), Nintendo Switch Lite, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo 3DS XL, Nintendo 2DS, and Nintendo Wii U. All colour variants are accepted. Use the model list on this page to find your exact Nintendo console and get an instant quote.
Selling your Nintendo online to a specialist like Envirofone typically gives you a better price than high-street trade-in programmes at GAME, CEX or other retailers. We offer free postage, same-day payment and no obligation to put the money towards a new device — so you get more cash and complete freedom to spend it however you choose.
Your Nintendo Switch's trade-in value depends on several factors: the model (OLED, standard or Lite), colour variant, cosmetic condition, and whether it's fully working with functioning Joy-Cons. The Switch OLED holds its value best thanks to its premium screen and enhanced features. To find out exactly what your Nintendo is worth, search for your model above — our prices update regularly to reflect the current market.
No. We only need the Nintendo console itself — you can keep any Joy-Con controllers, the dock, grip, HDMI cable, charger or other accessories. Our quote is based solely on the console model and condition. Remove all accessories and game cartridges before sending your device to us.
