Nintendo has signaled the end of production of the eye-catching Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle, six months after the console launched.<\/p>\n

In April, when Nintendo confirmed that the Switch 2 would cost $449.99 and Mario Kart World would cost $80, it announced a bundle that combined the two for $499.99, effectively making the launch title $30 cheaper than its standalone price.<\/p>\n

As you\u2019d expect, this bundle proved a popular option among early adopters, and helped fuel not only very strong sales of Mario Kart World, but the Switch 2 itself.<\/p>\n

Production of that bundle has now come to an end, however. Over the weekend, U.S. retailer giant Game Stop announced that the Mario Kart World Switch 2 bundle \u201cwill no longer be produced\u201d in a social media post that followed the leak of an internal GameStop memo to staff signalling the change.<\/p>\n

“This bundle SKU has now reached end of lifecycle, and additional units will no longer be produced,\u201d the memo reads. \u201cFuture replenishment of Nintendo Switch 2 will be the base console.”<\/p>\n

Today, December 22, Nintendo confirmed as much in a social media post of its own, saying: \u201cNintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle is available in limited quantities at participating retailers, while supplies last.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the bundle was always described as being available for a limited time, it\u2019s interesting that Nintendo has decided now is the right time to cease production. However, given how many bundle units are available at retailers, it seems likely they will be available for some time to come, should you fancy dropping by the Switch 2 party.<\/p>\n

Indeed, as IGN reported over the weekend, Best Buy has the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle on sale for $449.99, which means you\u2019re getting Mario Kart World for free.<\/p>\n

Nintendo has so-far resisted increasing the price of the Switch 2, at a time when its console rivals Microsoft and Sony have done so. Nintendo did raise original Switch prices in August 2025 and warned future price adjustments for Switch 2 accessories and games might occur.<\/p>\n
