Exciting news for all Pokémon trainers and Nintendo fans! The highly sought-after Nintendo Switch 2 console, bundled with a digital copy of the brand-new Pokémon Legends: Z-A, has been restocked on Amazon for launch day. This fantastic bundle is available for $499, offering a $20 saving compared to buying the console and the $70 game separately. Historically, this bundle, also available at Walmart, has flown off the shelves rapidly since its initial listing in mid-September, making this restock a rare opportunity. For those interested in other options, Amazon also has the Mario Kart World Switch 2 Bundle for $499 and the standalone Nintendo Switch 2 console for $449.
This special Pokémon bundle effectively takes the place of the earlier Mario Kart launch offer. While Nintendo hasn’t set a firm end date for the Mario Kart edition, it was initially promoted as a limited-time deal concluding in Fall 2025. Just like its Mario Kart counterpart, the Pokémon bundle provides real savings. You’re saving $20 by getting the Pokémon bundle compared to purchasing the $450 console and $70 game individually. Interestingly, the Mario Kart bundle offered a slightly larger $30 saving, as Mario Kart World carries an $80 price tag. It’s worth noting that Pokémon Legends: Z-A isn’t exclusive to the new Switch 2; this captivating open-world adventure is also available on the original Switch for $60.
Pokémon Legends: Z-A isn’t the only major Nintendo release this fall. Just last month, fans were treated to Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 for both Switch consoles. Looking ahead, November brings the exclusive launch of Kirby Air Riders and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment to Nintendo Switch 2. And to cap off the year, December will see the long-awaited arrival of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, also launching on both Switch and Switch 2.
For those looking to dive deeper into upcoming releases, be sure to explore buying guides for titles like Pokémon Legends: Z-A, Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, Kirby Air Riders, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, Mario Tennis Fever, Dragon Quest VII Reimagined, Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade, and Hades II.
Beyond the Pokémon bundle, other Nintendo Switch 2 options are currently available. You can grab the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle for $499, or the standalone Nintendo Switch 2 console for $449. If you missed out on the Pokémon Legends: Z-A bundle, it also shows up as a $499 bundle that releases today, October 16th, combining the new console with the game.
