The game costs $79.99 on its own, and Nintendo’s limited-time bundle already saves you $30 compared to buying the console and game separately. Walmart’s discount effectively gets you the game for free while shaving a few bucks off the system’s price as well.RelatedThese great Cyber Monday tech deals will likely be gone tomorrowNintendo Switch 2$450$50010% off$450$450 at Walmart (Mario Kart World bundle)The Nintendo Switch 2 is the long-awaited follow up to the popular original Switch, and it’s a welcome evolution rather than revolution. It has a 7.9-inch 1080p LCD screen, and includes a pair of magnetically-attached Joy-Con 2 controllers, not to mention speedier chips and memory inside. It can play most original Nintendo Switch games, so you can port your digital or physical library without much fuss.The system’s library is comprised of a growing number of exclusive titles, including Donkey Kong Bananza, Mario Kart World, and Kirby Air Riders. It also supports enhanced versions of original Nintendo Switch games, including Kirby and the Forgotten Land Plus Star Crossed World, and plenty of games being released for the original Switch. The Cyber Monday deal is especially notable since the next big Switch and Switch 2 game, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, comes out this week.

During Cyber Monday 2025, Walmart offered a significant discount on the Nintendo Switch 2, specifically the Mario Kart World bundle. This promotion reduced the console’s price by $50, effectively making the game itself free, as the standard game’s price was $79.99. This deal was particularly noteworthy given the imminent release of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, a highly anticipated Nintendo Switch title. The sale highlights a strategic move by Walmart to drive sales of the new Nintendo Switch 2, a console representing an evolutionary step from the original Switch. The system boasts a 7.9-inch 1080p LCD screen, magnetically attached Joy-Con 2 controllers, and faster processing speeds and memory. It is compatible with a growing library of Nintendo Switch games, including titles like Donkey Kong Bananza, Mario Kart World, and Kirby Air Riders, while also supporting enhanced versions of older Switch games such as Kirby and the Forgotten Land Plus Star Crossed World. The console's expanding library, combined with the attractive discount, positions the Nintendo Switch 2 as a compelling option for both new and existing Nintendo fans. The promotion’s timing, coinciding with the release of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, further emphasizes its strategic significance within the broader gaming market.
