In case you’ve waited until the very last minute to buy Christmas gifts, and there’s a Switch 2 on your shopping list, you’ve really lucked out here. Not only is Nintendo’s powerful handheld readily available online and in stores, it’s still $50 off for the best console bundle you can buy. The set that includes a Switch 2 and Mario Kart World is typically $499.99 (saving you $29 compared to buying the $79 game separately), but you have another — perhaps final! — chance to get it for $449. Currently, Amazon, Best Buy, and Target are honoring this limited-time price.
We’ve written about this deal a lot over the past couple of weeks at The Verge, mostly because it was the most unexpected thing to happen in the same year when Nintendo hiked prices on Switch 2 accessories, as well as the original Switch. The company made it clear back when the console launched in June that the bundle wouldn’t be around forever, and it shared yesterday on X that quantities are now limited.

Update, December 23rd: Updated to account for the fact that Amazon is now offering the same $50 discount on the Switch 2 as Best Buy and Target.
