The wait is finally over! The Nintendo Switch 2 has officially hit the market, but snagging one may feel like a quest in itself. Launched just on June 5, this gaming gem has seen UK retailers running out of stock within hours, and restocks have become a rollercoaster ride in recent weeks.
Good news, though! As of today, Monday, July 28, Argos has the Nintendo Switch 2 in stock. Not just that, but it’s bundled with the exciting Mario Kart World game. Both click and collect, along with delivery options, are available, making it easier than ever to get your hands on this hot item.
If you’ve been itching to upgrade your gaming setup, this bundle might be your golden ticket. Priced at £429.99, it’s a hefty investment, but given that it’s still new on the market, deals probably won’t surface until Black Friday in November.
Built as a sequel to the beloved original Nintendo Switch from 2017, the Switch 2 maintains the unique design that lets gamers switch seamlessly between handheld mode and docking it for TV play. The Joy-Con controllers now attach magnetically to a controller, providing that classic gaming experience for those couch co-op sessions.
This bundle also includes the brilliant Mario Kart World game, boasting a whopping 96 courses. Its new open-world mode allows players to explore freely, alongside fan-favorite tracks from the franchise’s history. Whether racing with friends locally or diving into online battles, there’s no shortage of adrenaline-pumping action.
Gaming editor Liam Martin from AsumeTech praises Mario Kart World as “colourful, chaotic, and hugely entertaining,” while pointing out that the open-world aspect, while promising, could use more content. He suggests adding mini-games, unlockables, and a more detailed map to truly enhance the experience.
If you’re keen on getting the Nintendo Switch 2, the bundle at Argos seems to be the best option available right now, as standalone stock for the console is scarce. Don’t miss your chance to dive headfirst into the thrilling world of gaming that this console brings.
