The wait is finally over for Nintendo fans: theNintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle is now available on Amazon, and it’s arriving at the absolute perfect time –just in time for Prime Day. This is the bundle everyone has been talking about, and it’s the one that’s sure to sell off the shelves. There isn’t much sense in paying for the console alone when you can bundle Mario Kart World, which gives you instant access to one of the year’s hottest games.
Theprice for this bundle is set at $499which is right in line with what you’d expect for a next-generation console and a blockbuster game together. Given how hard it’s been to find the Switch 2 anywhere since its official release back in mid-April,seeing it pop up on on Prime Day feels like a gaming miracle. This is your chance to own the hottest console of 2025 at affordable prices and steer clear of third-party sellers’ exorbitant prices.
However, here’s the catch:you’ll need to request an invitation to buy it. Why invitations? To guarantee that as many genuine Nintendo fans as can have a chance to own this coveted console, Amazon is using this tactic to discourage scalpers. You will be emailed when it’s your turn to buy if you’re selected. Not all of your requests will be fulfilled, so be quick and hope for the best.
So how is Nintendo Switch 2 a quantum leap? For one, the console features three play modes (TV, Tabletop, and Handheld) so you can play your games wherever and whenever you want. Thenew 7.9-inch LCD touchscreen is bigger and brighter, and now has HDR and up to 120 frames per second. That’s your favorite games smoother and more colorful than ever.
Thedock itself has been upgradedand will now have up to 4K resolution when connected with a compatible TV. This is an enormous step up from the original Switch and your games feel alive with more piercing visuals and more intense colors.Multiplayer gaming is more immersiveas well, with the inclusion of the new GameChat functionality.
With 256GB of internal storage(a microSD Express card expandable choice), you’ll have plenty of space for your favorite games, downloadable add-ons and save data. The console itself is also fullycompatible for physical and digital Nintendo Switch gamesso your existing library can accompany you when you upgrade to the next generation. And obviously, Mario Kart World is the perfect title to show off everything the Switch 2 can do. T
