Wait 5 sec.

Ahead of the Switch 2's price hike in September, Nintendo has announced two new Switch 2 bundles for the US.The Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle ($550) launches in late September, while the Switch 2 + Nintendo Switch Sports bundle ($530) arrives alongside the game on October 22. People may recall that Nintendo offered a Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle when the console launched in June 2025. It was priced at $500 back then, but was subsequently discontinued. Due to various economic pressures, Nintendo is raising the price of the Switch 2 by $50 on September 1, bringing it up to $500. That new price is factored in to the new bundle price, which is why it's $550.What this means is, if you really want a Switch 2 and Mario Kart World, waiting until this bundle goes on sale in late September makes financial sense since Mario Kart World is priced at $80.The new Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle comes with a Switch 2, a code for the digital version of Mario Kart World, and a 3-month Nintendo Switch Online individual membership.
