Wow, okay, so here’s the thing about Amazon Prime Day. Yeah, everyone was buzzing, but—oh, surprise!—Nintendo Switch 2 with Mario Kart popped up again here in the UK. Right at ShopTo. Honestly, it’s not like they’re slashing prices or anything. Not exactly a “deal” deal, you know?
Here’s the funny part: the console alone? Nearly 400 quid. Toss in Mario Kart, and that’s like another 60, give or take, depending on—well, who knows where you randomly decide to shop. But bundle ’em together, and maybe your wallet won’t scream as loudly.
If you’re the type who likes options, there’s always Argos. Same bundle, 429.99. It’s like they coordinated or something.
Oh, and speaking of coordination—Switch 2 dropped back in June. Bigger screen now, 1080p, so if you were squinting before, maybe less so? Docking’s still a thing, and wow, up to 4K. HDR, VRR, 120 fps… whatever all that tech jargon means.
Sure, it runs big titles like Cyberpunk 2077, but let’s face it, you’ll probably be lost in Mario Kart World. Because Nintendo just knows how to reel you in with its classics. Yep, it’s digital download all the way.
And, of course, the Joy-Cons are in there. Those nifty little things that detach, ’cause who doesn’t love pieces that move? Plus, you get straps (fancy!) and the obligatory dock and HDMI cable.
So this bad boy—Nintendo’s darling—is flying off the shelves. Five million units in the first weekend? Crazy, right? Even their president had to say sorry for not having enough stock. Awkward.
Meanwhile, we’re, like, neck-deep in deals—Prime Day craziness. You name it: SSDs, gaming monitors, graphics cards. All the tech goodness. But hey, back to where we started—yeah, it’s a whirlwind. So, should you grab that Switch 2? Maybe, maybe not. Go with your gut, I guess.
