Nintendo Switch 2 goes on pre-order in the US today, select games do too
After some initial uncertainty – and some price corrections – the Nintendo Switch 2 goes on pre-order in the US today. The new console can be pre-ordered from major US retailers like Best Buy, Target and Walmart (Amazon coming soon).
The official release date is the same as when the console was originally announced, June 5. The company has already showcased several games for it – a mix of new titles and re-releases that have been enhanced for the new hardware.
One game is special – Mario Kart World is part of a launch bundle that costs only $50 more than the console alone, while the game on its own costs $80. That’s on the high end of games that have been announced so far – the range is from $50 to $80.
| Console | Price |
|---|---|
| Nintendo Switch 2 | $450 |
| Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle | $500 |
| Game | Price |
| Mario Kart World | $80 |
| Super Mario Party Jamboree (Switch 2 edition) | $80 |
| The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Switch 2 edition) | $80 |
| Kirby and The Forgotten Land (Switch 2 edition) | $80 |
| Donkey Kong Bananza | $70 |
| The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch 2 edition) | $70 |
| Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion | $70 |

Some original Switch titles have been enhanced with higher resolutions and frame rates, HDR support, faster load times and more. If you already own the Switch game, there are Upgrade Packs that add in the enhancements without having to buy the game at full price. For example, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom upgrade pack is $10.
