Roll up, roll up, this is likely the best Nintendo Switch 2 Black Friday deal we're going to get this year in the UK. That's right, Switch 2 consoles have actually been discounted for the first time ever.

Across most retailers right now, Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundles are down to £409. That's over £20 off the RRP, and a sure-fire saving way ahead of the biggest sale event of the year.

Now, is it worth dropping over £400 on the console when the Black Friday sales are right around the corner? Yes! I'm fairly confident that this won't drop any further, even in the weeks to come.

Considering a base Switch 2 costs £395.99, you're effectively paying just under £14 for its bundled game, Mario Kart World. That's a bargain worth shouting about.

Here's what IGN's Logan Plant had to say about the game in his 8/10 review: "Mario Kart World may not make the most convincing case that going open-world was the boost the series needed, but excellent multiplayer racing, incredible polish, and the thrilling new Knockout Tour mode still more than live up to its legacy."

If you want to take things a step further, you could even get the console bundle for just £404.99 if you sign up for Argos' marketing emails. For the unaware, this sign up grants you a free £5 voucher to spend on any shops over £40. So, at over £400 the Switch 2 deal most definitely applies.

If you're looking for expandable storage, Amazon also has a limited time deal on the 1TB Lexar Play Pro MicroSDXC Express Card today, but you'll need to act fast.

Down to £189.99 from £279.99, this is the best deal we've seen so far on the only storage solution available for Switch 2. But, the deal expires by the end of today in the UK, so get moving to avoid disapointment. The 512GB card is also down to £92.99, if you're looking for something that little bit more affordable.

You can also find games like Donkey Kong Bananza down to just under £52 at Amazon today as well, if you're looking for another game to gift your loved one, or even just for yourself.
