Nintendo Switch 2 Console vs Nintendo Switch 2 Pokémon Legends: Z-A Bundle

Both bundles are the same Switch 2 hardware: 7.9-inch 1080p HDR LCD at up to 120Hz, 256GB UFS storage, magnetic Joy-Con 2, 4K/60 TV output and 2 to 6.5 hours of battery. The difference is what comes in the box and which game you get. Buy the standard bundle if you want Mario Kart World and the official dock, grip and straps. Buy the Pokémon bundle if Pokémon Legends: Z-A is the game you actually want and you value the carrying case and cleaning kit. Owners praise the bigger screen, the magnetic controllers and the faster loading; the common complaints are the LCD instead of OLED and the short battery life in demanding games.

• Choose the standard Switch 2 bundle if you want Mario Kart World packed in and the full dock, grip and strap set for TV and tabletop play.
• Choose the Pokémon Legends: Z-A bundle if that game is your reason to buy and you want a carrying case for handheld play.
