The Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle currently sells for $500 just about everywhere, but there’s a way you can get it for less. AliExpress is currently offering imported bundles for $458.12 after you apply a $60 off coupon code “60USAFF” during checkout. It ships free locally from the United States (which means no tariffs and quick shipping).
The listing is for a Hong Kong import. Fortunately, all international Switch 2 consoles are region unlocked, so they can be used in the US without any modification. You’ll also be able to select English as your default language. This specific model will come with a Hong Kong style plug, but a US adapter is included. Imported consoles do not get a US-based Nintendo warranty. Fortunately, Aliexpress offers a generous 90-day free return window.
Nintendo Switch 2 (Import) with Mario Kart World for $458
You can “unlock” the region-locked Mario Kart World Tour download voucher
Although the console itself is region unlocked, the Mario Kart World download voucher is region locked. Fortunately, getting around it is easy. To redeem the download voucher on a US-based account, you can temporarily set your region to Hong Kong (alternatively, create a separate Hong Kong account), and then change it back to US after you download the game. Afterwards you can play it just like any other game.
The Switch 2 console was released on June 5, 2025. It is backwards compatible with nearly all Switch games as well as the original Joy-Cons and Switch Pro controller, although the new Switch 2 controllers offer more functionality. In his Nintendo Switch 2 review, Tom Marks sums up the Switch 2 as “a vital but unexciting upgrade to a console I already love.”
At this point, several major Switch 2 video games have been released: Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, Pokemon Legends: Z-A, and more recently, Kirby Air Riders and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment. Several triple-A ports are also available, including Cyberpunk 2077 and Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, making the Switch 2 a veritable competitor to pricier handheld gaming PCs. The Switch 2 hardware is powerful enough to run these games at a very playable clip, something that was impossible on the original Switch’s increasingly outdated hardware. Whereas there was “nothing” to play when the Switch 2 was originally released, there are now plenty of reasons to finally justify an upgrade.
