First off, let me just say—Amazon Prime Day was supposed to be the big thing this week, right? But hold up, because guess what just popped up? Yeah, the Nintendo Switch 2 bundle with Mario Kart World. It’s back in action over in the UK at this place called ShopTo. I’m not even sure how I ended up spotting this, but there it was.
Okay, so technically, they aren’t slashing prices here. But hear me out: buying this whole package? It’s like finding a hidden stack of cash. The console alone? Nearly £400. Plus the game? That’s easily another £60. So, you do the math.
Oh, and if ShopTo’s not your thing, Argos has got you covered with the same bundle for £429.99. Choices, man. Choices.
So, June 5 rolls around and boom, Nintendo Switch 2 is out there. Bigger screen, 1080p—because who doesn’t love more pixels? Plus, it hooks up to your TV like the OG Switch for 4K madness. HDR, VRR, up to 120 fps… if you speak video game geek.
Now, sure, it’ll run the visually intense stuff like Cyberpunk 2077, but let’s be real: you’re here for Mario and Zelda, right? This bundle throws in a digital copy of the latest Mario Kart, so you’re all set.
And don’t forget those Joy-Con controllers. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, they’re iconic. Plus, you get the straps—never lose a Joy-Con mid-race. The dock’s in there too, HDMI cable—because plugging into a TV is just smart.
So about this popularity—Nintendo says they sold 5 million units that first weekend. Like, what? Even the prez had to say sorry for not being psychic about the demand.
Anyway, I should probably get back to finding stellar deals for Prime Day. If you’re diving into that ocean of offers, we’re rounding up all sorts of tech deals—from SSDs to graphics cards and everything in between. It’s a shopper’s playground out there.
