I'm buying a Switch 2 console this Black Friday. It'll be my first gaming console purchase in years and naturally I'm also planning on picking up some games and accessories. But I refuse to pay full price.
The good news is that Nintendo has confirmed that its official Switch Black Friday sale will kick off on November 22. The standout deal will be on the Switch 2 console bundle. You'll be able to get the Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle for $499. This discount takes $50 off, counteracting the Nintendo Switch 2 price hike that happened earlier this year, and I guarantee it's going to be one of the hottest deals this Black Friday.
The sale lasts from November 22 through December 5, but you can bet this will sell out fast. (If you don't want to wait, you can currently snag the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle for $549 at Amazon ). Below are more Nintendo Black Friday deals you can shop right now.
Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: was $549 now $499 This bundle gets you a Nintendo Switch 2 console, a copy of Mario Kart World, and a 3-month Nintendo Switch online membership for $499.
