The Nintendo Switch 2 has been flying off shelves, even with relatively few Black Friday deals, but there are still bundles available for anyone looking to snag one to put under the tree this Holiday season.
That’s not all, though – Amazon still (somehow) has stock of the Mario Kart World Bundle at a $50 discount, saving you 15% and netting you a great game in the process – if you know where to look.
You Can Still Get A Switch 2 For Christmas
Because Amazon is hiding the price of the Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle, it’s not immediately obvious that it’s on sale, so you’ll need to click the link above and add the bundle to your cart.
Doing so will give you the $449.00 price for the Mario Kart Bundle. Given that the game itself retails for a whopping $79.99, you could see it as getting the console for $369.01 – almost $100 off of the standard price. Or you could see it as getting the console at MSRP with a very expensive game thrown in for free – either way, this is a deal we don’t expect will be around for too much longer.
Aside from Amazon, there are plenty of bundles still available that include everything from microSD Express cards to other games.
Nintendo currently offers two game options, with one being the aforementioned Mario Kart World one, and another offering Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Those are great titles to start off with, but other retailers are mixing things up and including additional game options from Nintendo first-party – although they do tend to get pricier.
Best Buy was offering the most bundles of any retailer over Black Friday weekend, and that remains the case now. The retailer has a bundle including both Mario Kart World and Pokémon Legends Z-A, as well as options which include peripherals, the Switch 2 version of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, or Donkey Kong Bananza.
You can even get the (very good) Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller included in some, but be aware that the price will climb as a result. Still, you can’t go wrong with a case or screen protector.
Once you do get your Switch 2 console on Christmas day, don’t forget to check out our list of the best games for the system, including Ball x Pit, Final Fantasy Tactics, Hades 2, and Donkey Kong Bananza.
Wondering about Mario Kart World? We gave the game an 8 out of 10 in our review, with Logan Plant saying, “Mario Kart World may not make the most convincing case that going open-world was the boost the series needed, but excellent multiplayer racing, incredible polish, and the thrilling new Knockout Tour mode still more than live up to its legacy.”
Just don’t be upset if your relatives won’t speak to you after a particularly furious game of Knockout Tour – I’ve been there…
