Nintendo has set its Black Friday offers in motion for the holiday season, with a Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle priced at $499.99 and available from Nov. 22 through Dec. 5. The package includes a Nintendo Switch 2 system, a full download of Mario Kart World and a 3-Month Nintendo Switch Online Individual Membership.
That bundle is one of the main reasons shoppers are looking now, because Nintendo says it delivers a $50 savings and will be sold on the Nintendo Store website as well as at Nintendo NEW YORK and Nintendo SAN FRANCISCO. Black Friday itself begins Nov. 22 with offers at select retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target and Walmart, while a separate sale on Nintendo eShop and the Nintendo Store website runs from Nov. 19 through Dec. 2.
The broader push covers both Nintendo Switch 2 hardware and Nintendo Switch games, with select titles marked down by $20 from Nov. 22 through Nov. 29. Among the games named in the promotion are Donkey Kong Bananza for Nintendo Switch 2 and Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 for Nintendo Switch, giving the holiday sales a mix of new hardware and older favorites.
The catch is availability. Nintendo says every offer is while supplies last, which means the window may be broader on paper than it is in practice. At Nintendo NEW YORK and Nintendo SAN FRANCISCO, holiday shoppers will also find festive window displays, seasonal decor, exclusive products, collectibles and apparel inspired by Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Animal Crossing, Pikmin and Splatoon, plus holiday gift guides, festive shopping bags and a limited-time gift with purchase while supplies last.
For shoppers trying to time the sale, the key dates are clear: Nov. 19 for the digital sale, Nov. 22 for the wider Black Friday push and Nov. 22 through Dec. 5 for the bundle. The unanswered question is not whether Nintendo is joining the season, but how long the most sought-after items will stay in stock once the deals open.
