Honestly the price the bundle should have launched for. I've owned it since launch and have played MKW a handful of times since then. It just doesn't have the same high speed feel of MK8 due to the wide tracks. It also doesn't seem to matter who you pick or even your skills as the outcome of each race is somewhat random.

Don't get me wrong, it's fun for sure, but I wouldn't have bought it at $50 let alone the $70 they're asking for MKW à la carte.

Community Reviews

The Switch 2 bundle is being treated as a solid entry point for Nintendo's new console, especially because it includes Mario Kart World and the 256GB system for about the same price as the console alone elsewhere. The hardware gets praise for a sharper screen, stronger performance, faster loading, and support for games like Cyberpunk 2077, while the bundle is also seen as more accessible than store specific alternatives. The main knocks are the price, modest battery life, storage limits, and the fact that Mario Kart World feels less fast than Mario Kart 8 and can play a bit random. It is a practical way to jump in if you want the exclusive game now.

Target shoppers who can stack Target Circle rewards and a RedCard because one commenter said Switch 2 + Donkey Kong Bananza with 5% RedCard came out to $494 pretax after stacking a $50 reward, and the thread repeatedly notes the extra RedCard discount on the bundle.
SociableWren1282 Csublime estacionsj
Switch 2 shoppers who specifically want Mario Kart World right away because the bundle effectively makes you "get Mario Kart for free" versus buying the game separately, and commenters call the $450 price the best Switch 2 deal they've seen.
DarthCY trip1eX
People who already have a $500 Target gift card (or can get one at a discount) because commenters say it can add an extra 10% off, making the deal especially strong compared with the base price.
Dreamliner330 DJRobNM
Switch 2 buyers who are okay with Nintendo's digital download bundle because commenters describe Nintendo customer support as great and say the odds you'll need an exchange are near zero.
trip1eX make_moneys
Parents buying for kids who want Mario Kart World because one commenter preferred this $450 bundle over a cheaper console-only option since their kids want Mario Kart World included.

Switch 2 shoppers who are only buying for a big hardware leap right now because commenters say the value depends on future games and that Switch 1 owners may be happy to wait, especially since trade-in for Switch 1 is reportedly only around $80.
jhyde77 Csublime
Mario Kart fans who care about the "high speed" feel of MK8 because one owner says Mario Kart World's wide tracks make it feel less fast and that race outcomes can feel somewhat random, so they wouldn't pay $70 for it à la carte.
Slick_Drone
Switch 2 buyers who are trying to minimize risk around returns/exchanges if they use gift-card workarounds because one commenter says buying gift cards to then buy the console is much harder to return/exchange with Nintendo and can leave you stuck with gift cards instead of a refund.
make_moneys
People who don't live near a Micro Center or can't do in-store deals because commenters note the Micro Center console-only price is only available at select locations and in-store, while this bundle is the more accessible option.
Than23
Buyers who are expecting a broadly discounted "best deal" compared to prior promos because one commenter says the best prior deal was last month at about 20% off using discounted eShop cards, implying this $450 bundle is more of a decent option than the top historical price.

Common Questions (5)

It is described as a solid technical upgrade with a better screen, faster loading, and stronger performance in games like Cyberpunk 2077 and No Man's Sky. The main caveats are cost, battery life, and storage/game-key-card concerns, and the value depends heavily on future exclusives.
Csublime jhyde77 schlack Harmonica
Yes. A $500 Target gift card bought at 10% off can beat the RedCard discount, and stacking a 5% cashback card on the gift-card purchase can push the effective savings to about 14.5%.
Dreamliner330 Sventroy Dreamliner330
Target lists the bundle at $449.99 with free shipping or store pickup. A Target RedCard takes an extra 5% off, bringing it to $427.49 before tax.
Csublime estacionsj
Mario Kart World is fun, but it is described as less fast-paced than MK8 because of the wider tracks and somewhat random race outcomes. At $70 standalone, it is considered poor value, which makes the bundle more appealing than buying the game separately.
Slick_Drone Aji3
Yes. The bundle includes the 256GB Switch 2 console, Joy-Con 2 controllers, and a Mario Kart World full game digital download.

Quote from make_moneys

$65 membership aside, the Costco deal involves buying gift cards to then buy a console for full price. In the event you have an issue and you need to return it exchange it etc it is MUCH harder to deal with Nintendo than a BM store return plus you are stuck with gift cards and not an actual refund .
FWIW i am a Costco member and I still prefer the Walmart / target deal with PayPal cashback then going the gift card route. Now if Costco drops their console to match target/walmart pricing then that would be awesome ....

It is easy to deal with Nintendo. Great customer support. The odds you need to exchange are near zero.

The worst company to deal with on that list and where the greatest odds of a problem happening is is PayPal.

But let's not argue semantics and split hairs. Both are or were great deals on this product.

this thing is weaker than a PS4

I don't think it is. Are you talking about the PS5? That is true. It is weaker than the PS5, but it's much more powerful than the PS4. And plus, PS4 doesn't play Mario Kart.

Nice deal for anyone that wants one now, basically about 10% off. But it was better deal using the paypal 20% or the gift card trick from Sams/Costco. Personally I'm waiting for a zelda version of the console. XD hopefully they don't release it at the end life of the NS2.

Meh. I mean I'm glad we're getting SOMETHING, but I personally won't be biting until $399 or less. Which I don't doubt will happen sooner rather than later, as demand for this thing has PLUMMETED recently...

Sale price even if should have been price the same at og switch. The power of relativity is greater than Einstein imagined

overpriced, underpowered children's toy

More than double the power of the Steam deck with a much nicer screen at the same price point. Same price as the original Switch at launch, adjusted for inflation.

Switch 2 OLED doesn't exist yet. How did you get a Switch 2 for $150.

Also, for everyone else, Target deal is dead.

I've been gaming since 86. I've got all of the consoles right now. Donkey Kong bonanza is one of the best games I've played in the last 10 years.I just beat expedition 33 last week. I play literally everything. Put a lot of hours into battlefield six recently.But donkey Kong bonanza is up there with the best Mario games ever. And Metroid prime four looks sick.

I feel like Nintendo gave the green light for $450, so all the retailers dropped price across the board, but consumer $ is tight cause of inflation & everybody just said meh & went back to bed, cause they rather buy groceries & eat, than play games. Lol.
