Where to buy a Nintendo Switch 2 in Australia - Grab a Switch 2 ahead of its September price hike

The cost of gaming is increasing by the month, so this substantial discount on the standalone Nintendo Switch 2 is worth jumping at if you're in the market. Heck, maybe it's worth jumping at even if you're not. This is the standalone model: it doesn't come with any games, so you'll have to purchase those separately. You'll need an eBay Plus subscription for this price, but you can grab a free trial.

Amazon usually sells the Nintendo Switch 2 with immediate shipping, though stock levels do fluctuate: right now the standalone unit is unavailable and the Mario Kart World bundle are both unavailable; the later usually sells on Amazon for AU$744.

JB Hi-Fi is selling Switch 2 online with immediate shipping, and is usually the most reliable place to buy a Switch 2 in Australia. You can check online for availability (in the click and collect section) or just call your nearest outlet. They also have the Mario Kart World Bundle for AU$769.

EB Games is another decent place to get a Switch 2, and if you call your local outlet you may be able to pick one up nearby to avoid shipping costs. You can also check their website in the 'click and collect' section. The Mario Kart World bundle is available for AU$769.95.

Aussie retailer The Good Guys isn't offering Nintendo Switch 2 stock in-store, but you can order from them online if you have a particular love for this retailer. The same goes for the Mario Kart World bundle, which they're selling for the usual AU$769 RRP.

Officeworks is offering a discount on the RRP for the Nintendo Switch 2. That said, it's not currently available online, so whether you can take advantage of it will depend on whether your nearest outlet has any stock.

Big W stocks Switch 2 consistently, and the best bet is to click and collect from your local shopfront, though shipping is free also.

Independent Australian games retailer The Gamesmen has stock both in-store and online, both for the standalone console and the Mario Kart World bundle. If you have an outlet nearby, it couldn't hurt to give them a call.

Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller | AU$119 at Amazon

Joy-Con 2 (L) and Joy-Con 2 (R) Controller Set | AU$139 at Amazon

Joy-Con 2 Charging Grip | AU$49 at Amazon
The official charging grip can connect to your two Joy-Con 2 controllers and transform them into one gamepad. Better yet, it can also charge them in the process, which the original grip that came with the OG Switch was missing out on.

Joy-Con 2 Wheel (set of two) | AU$29 at Amazon

Remember the Wii Wheel? Well, it's back, in Switch 2 form. These official wheel accessories are a lot smaller than the older models and can hook up to a single Joy-Con 2 controller to make Mario Kart World a more arcade-like experience.

These simple light red and light blue Switch 2 straps can attach onto the side of the Joy-Con 2 controllers to make them easier to hold, and come with a way to tie them onto your wrist so you don't drop your pricey Ninty controllers after a frantic Mario Kart World gaming session.
