Nintendo Revamps Game Bundles Before Switch 2 Price Hike

If you’re considering picking up a Switch 2 in the coming months before the price hike, you’ll soon have some exciting bundle options to explore.

Starting in early June, Nintendo will roll out a unique bundle that lets you choose from three games. The Nintendo Switch 2: Choose Your Game Bundle will come with a download code for a digital copy of either Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, or Pokémon Pokopia.

This bundle is priced at $499.99, matching the cost of the Mario Kart World bundle that debuted with the console. Essentially, you’re getting one of the games for $50, which is a savings of $20 to $30 depending on your choice. After September 1, that’s the price you’ll pay for a Switch 2 without any game included.

It’s a solid deal, giving you the flexibility to select from three top-tier titles, even if none quite reaches the iconic status of a game like Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza were two of Nintendo’s standout first-party releases during the Switch 2’s launch phase.

Pokémon Pokopia adds an intriguing twist to the bundle. While it’s a spinoff rather than a mainline Pokémon title, it has gained unexpected popularity, with Nintendo recently reporting that it sold over 4 million copies in just five weeks. This success has likely exceeded Nintendo’s expectations, and its appeal to nostalgic Pokémon fans makes it a fitting addition to the bundle.

If you’re eager to grab this bundle, you’ll need to act quickly; there are only three months before the price increase takes effect. Plus, Nintendo has indicated that the bundle will be available for a limited time, “while supplies last.”
