Ah, here we go. I mean, if you’re like me, and I can’t be the only one, right?, you’re probably still trying to track down this new Nintendo Switch 2… or whatever they’re calling it now. Apparently, this place called The Game Collection in the UK—never heard of it before, but hey, that’s just me—has got eight pre-order bundles up for grabs. Anyway, thought I’d mention it in case you’re as desperate as I am not to miss out when it actually hits the shelves. Got released yet? Nope, not till June 5, 2025.
Okay, so let’s get into it. They’re bundling this thing with games like Mario Kart World (classic) and some odd picks like Split Fiction—don’t ask me, haven’t played it. Oh, and Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition—isn’t that the game that was a mess at launch? Guess it’s all patched up by now.
They’re actually kind of going all out on these bundles. Like, here’s what’s cooking:
First off, Bundle 1’s going for £484.95, throwing in Hogwarts Legacy too. Uh, magic on the go? Maybe. And a camera, because why not.
Now Bundle 2’s the same price, but yanks Hogwarts for Split Fiction. Camera’s still there. Wonder if that’s worth it…?
Moving on—Bundle 3 goes up a bit to £519.95, adds Mario Kart along with Split Fiction and, shocker, the camera.
And then, you’ve got Bundle 4 at £539.95. This one’s Nintendo Switch 2 solo, but chucks in Sonic X Shadow Generations. Plus a roomy Samsung 256GB microSD card—sounds fancy—and that ever-present camera again.
Oh, the fifth bundle’s priced at £559.95. You get Cyberpunk 2077 this time, with that big microSD card. And, wait for it, yeah, the camera.
Bundle 6 takes the cake at £589.95 with Mario Kart, Cyberpunk, and all that other stuff, camera included.
Bundle 7 ups it to £609.95, adding Hitman World of Assassination Signature Edition. Those are a mouthful. Still the same camera, still that microSD card.
Finally! Bundle 8, for £644.95, wraps up Mario Kart, Cyberpunk, and Hitman into one neat package. I’d say it’s overloaded. Oh, and as you guessed, camera and the usual add-ons.
So, if your patience can handle it, the base console by itself will cost you £395.99 in the UK when it finally drops. That’s the scoop, more or less. Oh, and they’ve got some overview trailer floating around on YouTube if you’re all about the visual hype.
Anyway, happy hunting or waiting—or whatever we’re calling it these days.
