Author : Amelia May 24,2025

During today's thrilling Nintendo Direct, fans were treated to the long-awaited announcement of the Nintendo Switch 2, set to launch on June 5, 2025. The excitement was palpable as Nintendo revealed that the new system will be available at a retail price of $449.99. For those looking for a bit more, a special bundle including the highly anticipated Mario Kart World game will be offered at $499.99.

If you're a fan of Mario Kart and prefer to buy the game separately, be prepared to shell out $79.99, a price point that's sure to raise some eyebrows among gamers. This pricing strategy reflects Nintendo's approach to value, especially considering that the only $70 game released for the original Switch was the critically acclaimed Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Notably, the newly announced Donkey Kong Bananza also carries a $70 price tag.
