Nintendo Switch 2 finally saw its first real price drop for Cyber Monday 2025, and it quickly became one of the biggest holiday deals of the year. Walmart lowered the price of the Mario Kart World bundle to 449.99 dollars, and Amazon matched the same discount, giving shoppers two major retailers offering the exact same savings. For a console that has stayed locked at full price since launch, this was the moment a lot of people were waiting for.

The bundle includes the Switch 2 along with Mario Kart World. At this reduced price, most buyers are getting the game for almost nothing compared to the cost of the console alone. The Switch 2 itself has been a solid upgrade. It features a 7.9 inch 1080p display, faster internals, and new Joy Con 2 controllers that attach magnetically instead of using the old sliding rails. The system feels sturdier and more reliable, and the overall design is cleaner than earlier models.

This discount could not have landed at a better time. Switch 2 launched in June and has been hard to keep in stock across major retailers. Prices held firm throughout summer and fall, so seeing both Walmart and Amazon offer a meaningful price cut made the deal even more attractive. Holiday sales often influence what people choose to buy for the next year, and this drop gave shoppers a strong reason to join or return to the Nintendo ecosystem.

If you are considering picking it up, it may be worth acting quickly. These deals rarely last long, and stock tends to disappear faster than expected during the holiday rush. Console only discounts remain uncommon, and there is no guarantee this price will return anytime soon. With demand staying high and production costs likely to shift next year, this may be one of the best opportunities to get a Switch 2 without paying full price.
