The Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle is being treated as a solid current price for a hard to find package, especially since the bundle has been discontinued and remaining stock is being cleared out. The $449.99 tag is described as about 10 percent off, and the included game is expected to cost more on its own later. Cash back and gift card promos can push the effective price much lower, with some orders landing around the low 400s or even the 200s after rewards. The main hesitation is waiting for a future OLED version, though that likely means paying more and waiting longer.

Common Questions (4)

  • Yes. The bundle is confirmed as discontinued and no longer being made, so current listings are clearing remaining stock. That also means Mario Kart World may eventually be sold separately at full price.

  • The Prime credit card promo can drop the effective cost to about $240-$297 after taxes, depending on the gift card amount and cash back used. Slower shipping can also add extra cash back, which lowers the final out-of-pocket cost further.

  • An OLED Switch 2 is expected eventually, but it will likely cost more than this bundle and may not be cheaper than the current price. Waiting can make sense if you only want OLED, but buying now gets you the Switch 2 plus Mario Kart World at a known discount.

  • Yes, using Amazon cash back can make the Amazon deal more attractive than Best Buy. One setup combined Discover 5% cash back with a sale on a PowerA case, and another used Prime Store Card cash back to bring the effective price down further.

Nobody should be buying this product until they come up with a OLED version that includes TMR joysticks, this is ridiculous.
Oled will come. It will be more expensive and for enthusiasts like you and me. I will buy one. I also bought the Switch 2 at launch.

And no one uses TMR joysticks, let alone know what they are. Xbox doesn't have them. PS5 doesn't have them. That is not standard. Oh, and I just learned that the overpriced PS Portal is not oled. Not sure why Nintendo gets held to a higher standard...

Just saw, I canceled my order and reordered. With the Prime credit card gift card promo I'm paying $240 after taxes. Thats not counting my cash back that I'm using towards this. An absolute no brainer even if it's gonna collect dust for a bit.

Yea. If you're sserious about buying it, I would keep the Mario Kart World bundle in your cart and check the price each day during the holidays. You never know what Amazon will do.

Wish I'd sold mine as soon as I saw the $400 deal for microcenter. Got the 20% cash back deal from microcenter so could have got my 96 bucks back if i sold ot for what I paid which was still $25 under original retail and got the standard for $300. Now everyone but Walmart has it for $450. Dodnt want the game but it was too good of a deal to pass up.

Deal is dead. Like someone else said it's at Best Buy for $450 but decided to sign up for the Amazon Prime credit card and buy it from there so got a $250 gift card, brought down the price to $297 after tax and with slower shipping it gives you 8% back instead of 5% so I'm paying like $270 after it's all said and done and I use my cash back towards this (assuming the 8% is on what I actually paid after using the gift card, if it's for the entire purchase price of $500 then it will end up being around $250 instead)If you're on the fence about the Switch 2 and you're able to get this deal just do it. Switch 2's price will most likely increase next year due to the RAM shortages
Maybe I should hold onto mine and seem in then. I got the $400 standard one at microcenter.

JIC you're on the fence about getting a Switch 2 it has been confirmed the MK bundle is no longer in production. Also there market forces at play that point to a possible price INCREASE on the Switch 2. IMO there's no better time to jump on board than now. Sure you can wait for the eventual Switch OLED, but if the Switch 2 itself is already this expensive how much more will an OLED be? It will likely never be cheaper than this. Especially with MKW included. And you'll have that much more useful time to enjoy it. All just IMO
By $150 I'll pay extra. I'm serious. Once someone has OLED, there is no going back to LCD. Quality of life matters.

There is absolutely nothing to lose by waiting for the OLED Switch 2. Lot of us are on Switch 1 OLED anyways
