The Nintendo Switch 2 with Mario Kart World has dropped in price

The Nintendo Switch 2 is not a console that needs a hard sell, but a bundle that includes Mario Kart World and shaves money off the combined price is the kind of offer worth paying attention to.

That value case is even clearer now, with the Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle available at EE for £409 against a combined retail price of £430.98.

The Switch 2 itself centres on a 7.9-inch 1080p touchscreen with HDR10 support and Variable Refresh Rate up to 120fps, which is a meaningfully sharper and smoother handheld experience than the original Switch ever delivered.

Dock it to your television and output jumps to up to 4K resolution, so the same device that fits in a bag on your commute becomes a proper living room gaming setup the moment you get home.

The redesigned Joy-Con 2 controllers also attach magnetically rather than sliding into place which makes them noticeably easier to grab and go, and each one can double as a mouse in compatible games, which opens up some genuinely different ways to play.

GameChat lets you press a single button to start a voice or video call with friends and share your screen mid-session, connecting via the built-in camera or any compatible USB-C camera, which brings a degree of social play that the original never had built in.

Storage lands at 256GB, which is eight times what the original Switch shipped with, and the console is backwards compatible with the majority of physical and digital original Switch games re-downloaded via the Nintendo eShop.

Mario Kart World is the headline inclusion, an open-world racing game with over 40 playable characters and support for up to 24 players across modes including Grand Prix, Knockout Tour, and Free Roam.

The Nintendo Switch 2 bundle at this price is a strong entry point for anyone coming from the original console or buying in fresh, with a launch title included that gives you something to play immediately rather than an empty game library on day one.
