But if you’re looking to buy a Switch 2 for yourself – pre-orders in the US start on April 9th – you’re going to have to pay up. (And, depending on the impact of President Trump’s newly-announced tariffs, the Switch 2 could cost even more .)

Some Switch games, like Breath of the Wild, are getting upgraded versions for the new console called Nintendo Switch 2 Editions.

Switch 2’s flagship launch game, and its first major Nintendo first-party exclusive, is Mario Kart World. The first brand-new game in the series for more than a decade, World promises to be the biggest Mario Kart experience ever. It’s the launch game that almost everyone will buy.
