UK deal coverage reported the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle for £354.99, £65 below a £419.99 comparison price. That is a retailer-reported offer—not an announced permanent Nintendo price cut. The reports are dated September 26 and October 5, 2026; live prices, stock and the promotion’s end date are unconfirmed.
What the reported £354.99 deal includes
The offer is for the Nintendo Switch 2 bundled with Mario Kart World, not necessarily the standalone console. Creative Bloq identified the bundle in its September 26, 2026 report, and TechRadar reported the same £354.99 price against £419.99 on October 5. TechRadar described it as Amazon UK’s lowest price at the time; Creative Bloq called the £65 reduction 15% off.

Is this a permanent Nintendo price cut?
No. The cited coverage describes a retailer deal, while Nintendo’s May 2026 investor presentation documents price revisions in other regions. It does not establish a UK recommended retail price change or make this reported UK offer permanent. TechRadar’s October 5 report and Creative Bloq’s September 26 report cover the UK promotion.
How Nintendo’s regional price revisions compare
Nintendo’s official May 2026 presentation gives these regional figures. They are not UK prices: US prices exclude tax, while the European prices include tax. The Japan figure applies to the Japan-only Japanese-language model.

Nintendo’s price-revision presentation is the source for those figures and regional qualifications. They provide context for Nintendo pricing elsewhere but do not confirm a UK MSRP or explain how long any UK retailer promotion will run.

Nintendo of America’s retail offers page lists a Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle at $549.99 while supplies last. Its stated savings are calculated against buying the system, game and membership separately. The page also lists a Nintendo Switch Sports Resort bundle scheduled for October 22, 2026. These are US offers, not alternatives to the reported UK £354.99 promotion. See Nintendo of America’s retail offers.

What to verify before buying
- Confirm the listing explicitly includes both the Nintendo Switch 2 and Mario Kart World; a console-only listing is not the same deal.
- Check the current item price and delivery charge in the final checkout, rather than relying on an older deal report.
- Verify stock and the stated delivery date with the retailer.
- Read the retailer’s return terms for the specific purchase.
Nintendo Support says it does not offer coupons for purchases from retailers; its guidance separately points readers to digital sales and refurbished products through Nintendo channels. Nintendo Support’s coupon guidance does not verify this retailer promotion or its current terms.
