Gone are the days when people stampeded each other and their own grandmas to get a hold of a Nintendo Switch 2, the follow-up to Nintendo’s sometimes-handheld, sometimes-TV-connected Switch console. When it launched in June 2025, all anyone would ask me was if I knew where they could get a Switch 2.

Now, supply having caught up with demand, retailers are bundling them up with popular games and trimming the price tags. Amazon has a sale right now on the Switch 2 bundled with Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 right now. It’s not enough of a sale to stop traffic, but it does set you up right away on your new console with two of the more beloved Mario titles from the original switch.

Were you to buy a Switch 2 on its own, it’d cost you $449. Then if you were to buy the Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 bundle on its own, as well, it’d run you another $70. So the total cost to purchase yourself a Switch 2 and dive right into two of the more beloved Mario titles from the original Switch (the Switch 2 can play Switch games), you’d have to fork over $519. You may as well buy the bundle, in that case.

Nintendo sells a bunch of different Switch 2 bundles with favorite titles, from Donkey Kong Bananza to Mario Kart World, but the Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2 bundle is the only one currently on sale. You can choose either the bundle with a physical cartridge or a digital code if you just want to download the games to your console. They’re on sale for the same price.

No doubt this is a tie-in to the debut of the Super Mario World Galaxy Movie that hit theaters earlier this month. You know the one; the sequel to 2023’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie whereby Chris Pratt and Charlie Day, as Mario and Luigi, respectively, shed their stereotyped Italian-American accents and just talk in their normals? Yeah, they’re back, and the only one to hear Mario’s and Luigi’s old-style voices is to pick up a Super Mario game.
