Amazon just dropped the biggest Nintendo Switch 2 bundle deal I've seen since. There's no getting around this one, so I'll just dive straight in.

You can currently grab a Nintendo Switch 2 console alongside both Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza for $518 at Amazon. That's less than $20 more on top of the regular $499.99 MSRP on the Mario Kart bundle itself. You're saving well over $50 on Donkey Kong Bananza by itself, and that's before you take into considering the discounts already applied in that package deal - plenty of pocket money for some of the best Nintendo Switch 2 accessories. In short, it's the best offer I've seen on the Nintendo Switch 2 since launch, and I wouldn't expect it to last much longer.

That's a remarkable saving on a first party release on a brand new Nintendo console, something I didn't expect to see so close to both the handheld and game's release. Donkey Kong Bananza is the system's first major blockbuster outside of Mario Kart World, and still fetches $69.99 day to day. In fact, we were celebrating a $10 discount on this game as a rarity just last week.

These kinds of Nintendo Switch deals don't come around often. You're paying over the top of the typical $499 bundle price here, and $69 more than the price of the handheld by itself. Both of these games cost far more than that individually, though - this is essentially even sweeter than buy one get one free.

Amazon tends to run dynamic pricing on high profile offers like this, so I wouldn't be surprised to see those numbers ticking up as stock starts to get low. Bundle deals are rare in the US, though, and I expect word of this one to spread like wildfire in the lead up to the holiday season. You'll need to move fast to snag the full saving.
