Nintendo's $500 Switch 2 Game Bundle Now Available Early
TL;DRAI · 60 sec read

Nintendo's $499.99 Switch 2 bundle with a choice of digital game is now available early from Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, and the Nintendo Store. The package includes one title such as Mario Kart World. It offers savings before Nintendo raises the standalone console price to $499.99 in September.

Nintendo teased its “Choose Your Game” Switch 2 console and digital game bundle for an early June release. Multiple retailers have begun selling the $499.99 package ahead of schedule. Retailers offering the bundle reportedly include GameStop, Amazon, Best Buy, and the Nintendo Store.

The promotion makes sense to secure before the holiday season. Nintendo plans to increase the Switch 2 price to $499.99 in September. The console alone currently sells for $449.99. The bundle adds a full-price digital title that delivers up to a $30 discount.
It is a deal worth hopping on ahead of the holiday season since Nintendo is raising the price of the Switch 2 to $499.99 in September.

Shoppers select one of three games upon setup: Donkey Kong Bananza, Pokémon Pokopia, or Mario Kart World. The first two normally cost $69.99 while Mario Kart World carries a $79.99 price.

All three options occupy limited space on the Switch 2’s 256GB internal SSD. Mario Kart World requires the largest share at 22GB. Owners could accumulate enough additional titles to surpass available capacity. A 256GB Samsung microSD Express card offers a way to double storage and is currently discounted to $47.99 at Amazon from its regular $79.99 price.
None of the games offered as part of the bundle will take up much of the Switch 2’s 256GB internal SSD.
Redemption begins by opening the eShop from the Switch 2 home screen. Users then choose “enter code” on the left side of the page. The 16-character code included with the bundle is entered next, followed by selection of the desired game.
The bundle is available via links at Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop.
