Which Switch to get

  • Nintendo Switch 2: the current console, with a bigger screen and Switch 2 exclusives like Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza. It also plays most Switch games.
  • Switch 2 bundles: the Mario Kart World and Switch Sports Resort bundles include the game and a 3-month Nintendo Switch Online membership. Nintendo says they save $37.98 and $27.98 compared with buying each item separately.
  • Nintendo Switch – OLED Model: the best original Switch, with a 7-inch OLED screen. It can’t play Switch 2-only games.
  • Nintendo Switch Lite: handheld only and the lowest price. Good for a younger kid’s first system.
