The highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 will be hitting the shelves on Thursday, with long-lines of gamers looking to get their hands on one. Here's what you need to know about the release of the new console.

With all of these stores, we've seen the Mario Kart World bundle available in greater quantities online than the base console, which costs $50 less. But given that Mario Kart is the Switch 2's biggest launch game and retails for $80 on its own, that may not be the worst thing.

Sam's Club: The Walmart-owned warehouse club had the Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle on June 5. It will only be available to Sam's Club members. New members can get an annual Sam's Club membership for $25 (was $50).
