Nintendo’s US Black Friday plans are out, and for once its own games are on sale. From November 22, Donkey Kong Bananza, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, Kirby Air Riders and four other physical games drop by $20 at major retailers, the Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle returns at $499.99, and an eShop sale starts even earlier, on November 19. Here is every offer, the dates (which are all different), and our math on which deals are actually worth it.
Last checked on November 13, 2026. Official All offers and dates are from Nintendo of America’s announcement of November 12. Reported Price context comes from Kotaku, Insider Gaming and Rolling Out. These are US offers, “while supplies last”; Nintendo has not announced UK or EU Black Friday deals.

Is the Switch 2 bundle a good deal? Our math
Reported According to Kotaku, the Switch 2 on its own now costs $499.99 after a $50 price rise since launch, so the bundle brings the console back to its June 2025 launch-bundle price.
| What you get for $499.99 | Value |
|---|---|
| Nintendo Switch 2 console | $499.99 on its own (Kotaku) |
| Mario Kart World, full download | $79.99 at launch |
| 3 months Nintendo Switch Online, Individual | $7.99 |
| Total if bought separately | About $587.97 |
Our math At $499.99 you are effectively getting Mario Kart World and three months of Switch Online for free, about $88 of value, compared with buying a standalone Switch 2. Nintendo itself puts the saving at $50 against the bundle’s regular price. The Sports Resort bundle at $529.99 is better only if you specifically want that game; for most new owners, the Mario Kart World bundle is the one to buy.
What to do before November 22
- Make a list now. The physical game sale lasts just one week, Nov 22 – 29, while the console bundle runs to Dec 5.
- Check the eShop on Nov 19. The digital sale starts first, but Nintendo has not said which games are in it. Do not assume the same seven are.
- Physical is the cheaper way to get these seven unless the eShop matches the $20 cut.
- Watch for stock. Every offer is “while supplies last”.
- Buying for a GTA 6 player? GTA 6 is not on Switch 2; it is PS5 and Xbox Series X|S only (GTA 6 hub).
