Nintendo Black Friday 2026: Switch 2 Mario Kart Bundle $499.99 Nov. 22

Nintendo’s Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle is $499.99 from Sunday, Nov. 22, through Saturday, Dec. 5, 2026, according to Nintendo’s Nov. 12 Black Friday release. Nintendo calls that $50 off the suggested retail price and includes a 3-month (90-day) Nintendo Switch Online Individual Membership. Two other offers run on different dates, so the timeline below puts all three windows in one place, and a free printable holds them for the fridge.

What are the Nintendo Black Friday 2026 dates?

Nintendo’s release names three windows. The digital sale starts first, and the Switch 2 bundle and the physical-game discount start together on Nov. 22, five days before Black Friday on Friday, Nov. 27.

Nov. 29	Sun.	$20 off physical games ends	“from Nov. 22 through Nov. 29”
Nov. 30	Mon.	Cyber Monday; Nintendo’s release names no separate offer	Calendar date
Dec. 2	Wed.	Digital sale ends at 11:59 p.m. PT (2:59 a.m. ET, Thu., Dec. 3)	“Dec. 2 at 11:59 p.m. PT”
Dec. 5	Sat.	Switch 2 bundle ends	“Starting Nov. 22 through Dec. 5”

From Saturday, Nov. 14, the digital sale is 5 days away, the bundle and game discount are 8 days away and the bundle’s last day is 21 days away. The digital sale and the bundle each span 14 days, counting both ends. The physical-game offer spans 8.

Nintendo gives no start hour for the bundle or the game discount, and the footnote reads “Offer valid 11/22/2026 - 12/5/2026, available while supplies last.” Nintendo’s footnotes also say “Actual savings may vary. See participating retailers for details.” The release says Black Friday begins Nov. 22 at select retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target and Walmart, plus Nintendo’s New York and San Francisco stores. Our when is Black Friday page has the retail date.

Is the Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle cheaper than the console?

Not cheaper, but it matches. Nintendo’s Switch 2 page lists the bundle at a $549.99 manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP), which is where the $50 saving comes from. The standalone Switch 2 rose from $449.99 to $499.99 in the U.S. on Sept. 1, 2026, according to Gematsu and Video Games Chronicle, which reported Nintendo’s May 2026 announcement. The Black Friday bundle therefore costs the same as the console alone, and Mario Kart World and the membership come with it.

Nintendo’s release also mentions a Switch 2 + Nintendo Switch Sports Resort Bundle at $529.99, with savings of $27.98 off the suggested retail price. It gives no dates for that one. The Nintendo Store’s showroom page says “Save an additional $50 on the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle until Dec 5” and “Offer starts 11/22/26.”

How does Nintendo’s 2026 Black Friday compare with 2025?

In 2025, Nintendo announced its holiday offers on Nov. 10. The 2026 release came two days later, on Nov. 12.

Item	2025 (Nintendo, Nov. 10, 2025)	2026 (Nintendo, Nov. 12, 2026)
Digital sale	Cyber Deals, Nov. 20 through Dec. 3 at 11:59 p.m. PT	Nov. 19 through Dec. 2 at 11:59 p.m. PT
Retail deals	“Beginning Nov. 23”	Black Friday begins Nov. 22
Switch 2 bundle price	Suggested retail price of $499.99	$499.99, $50 off $549.99
Switch 2 system price	$449.99	$499.99 (since Sept. 1, 2026)

The digital sale starts and ends one day earlier in 2026 (Nov. 19 and Dec. 2) than in 2025 (Nov. 20 and Dec. 3). Each is 14 days long, counting both ends.

What is the Nintendo eShop Black Friday sale in 2026?

Nintendo says a sale on Nintendo eShop and the Nintendo Store website starts Nov. 19 and runs through Dec. 2 at 11:59 p.m. PT. The release names no games and no discounts, so the list was not yet posted as of Nov. 14. Check the eShop’s own sale page for prices on Nov. 19. For 11:59 p.m. PT on Dec. 2, Pacific Standard Time (UTC-8) puts Eastern Time (ET) three hours ahead, which is 2:59 a.m. on Thursday, Dec. 3.

Which physical games are $20 off?

From Nov. 22 through Nov. 29, Nintendo says select games are $20 off the suggested retail price at the retailers above, while supplies last. The release names Donkey Kong Bananza and Nintendo Switch games such as Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2. It states no retailer prices, and actual savings may vary by store. Nintendo also lists a gift with purchase for a limited time, which requires a minimum spend, while supplies last; the release does not say where it is offered.

Print the Nintendo Black Friday 2026 deal calendar

The one-page sheet lists the six dated steps, with the Dec. 2 end time in ET and PT, and has six lines for the item, regular price, deal price and store. Pair it with the November 2026 printable calendar and the December 2026 printable calendar, since the windows cross both months.
