When it comes to holiday video game gifts, Nintendo gear often tops the lists for kids and adults alike. That’s more likely than ever this year due to the launch of the Switch 2 in the spring. But if you were still hoping to save money on consoles with the live Cyber Monday gaming deals, you may be disappointed. The Nintendo Cyber Monday Sale was announced a few weeks ago, and not surprisingly there are very few actual “deals” available. However, that’s typical of Nintendo – genuine Nintendo Cyber Monday deals are few and far between. However, if you’re going to pick up a Switch 2 before this year ends there are at least ways to get the best value for your money.
As has been the case for years, major Nintendo deals for the holidays come in the form of console bundles. When the Switch 2 launched earlier this year, it was available as a console-only console for just $449 or in a bundle mario kart world For $499. Both options are still available. Considering that each game costs $70, you can save a bit by picking up the console bundle. You can pick up the console and its bundles from most retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, and others.
As of Cyber Monday, there’s a real deal on the Switch 2 that wasn’t available for Black Friday. Walmart currently has the Switch 2 mario kart world Bundle for $50, reducing it to $449. However, note that at Walmart, you must sign in to a Walmart account, which is free, and add the item to your cart to see the discounted price. It cannot be said how long this deal will last.

It may not be a welcome sight to parents, but it will certainly delight kids who like cars, Mario, or both. And because it has room to store over 30 carts, it can really help reduce some clutter. It’s a win-win situation in my book. – SR

When I first saw this LEGO set in person, it took all my restraint not to finish it and buy it for myself. Just look at it. If this doesn’t evoke the cozy feelings of a handheld munching on AA batteries while entertaining millions of kids during road trips in the 90s, you might be dead inside. Lego also included some fake displays with a lenticular effect to give the impression that the game actually runs. Very clean. – SR
