Nintendo has warned that the Switch 2 bundle with Mario Kart World is a limited time offer, so here’s where you can pre-order the console.

We’re less than two months away from the Nintendo Switch 2 launch and many retailers have already sold out their allocated stock.

The Switch 2 is set to launch worldwide on June 5, 2025, and while you can pick up the base console for £395.99 in the UK, the £429.99 bundle with Mario Kart World looks to be the most popular deal, as it knocks off £33 from the game’s £66.99 digital price.

While many assumed this bundle would be sticking around for some time, Nintendo has raised alarm bells through some small print in the recent Mario Kart World Direct.

When the bundle was shown during the presentation, small print on the bottom of the screen read: ‘Limited time production through autumn 2025 (available while supplies last).’

While it seems odd that this bundle would have a ‘limited time production’ considering it’s just a code inside the box, Nintendo has some history with bizarre time sensitive deals – most famously Super Mario 3D All-Stars, which was discontinued after six months.

The disclaimer is clearly designed to incentivise sales over the coming months, but as Mario Kart World does cost significantly more separately, it’s entirely possible Nintendo doesn’t want the deal to continue beyond its launch year.

By Christmas, if stock of the Mario Kart World bundle does run out, it’s likely other retailers might have their own bundles with other games, albeit with less of a discount – and probably less notable titles.

If you’re looking to pre-order the Mario Kart World bundle, retailers like Amazon and Very are currently sold out. However, they’ve been getting small amounts of new stock in on a consistent basis, so if you keep trying the links below you may get lucky – although the My Nintendo Store one is currently invite only.

Some retailers like Currys have only opened up Switch 2 pre-orders in stores, and it’s currently unclear whether they’ll sell units online.

While pre-orders are live now across the UK and Europe, pre-orders in the US and Canada were delayed earlier this month due to Trump’s tariffs, with a new date now set for April 24.

Along with Mario Kart World, the Switch 2 is set to launch with other games like Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour, Split Fiction, and Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition.
