Mario Kart World on Nintendo Switch 2 will officially cost $110 in Canada

Nintendo has finally confirmed official Canadian pricing for key Switch 2 games.

In a press release confirming a new April 24 date for Switch 2 pre-orders, the company revealed that Mario Kart World will cost $109.99 in Canada. We had expected the game to cost in this price range here, given the US$80 cost, but now we know definitively. On top of that, Nintendo confirmed that Donkey Kong Bananza will be priced at $99.99 in Canada.

Notably, these are more expensive than the $89.99 Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) that other companies charge for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S games. It’s unclear why Nintendo thinks its games should cost more than those on more powerful hardware.

Alongside Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza, Nintendo also confirmed Canadian pricing for Switch 2 accessories:

• Nintendo Switch 2 — $629.99
• Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle — $699.99
• Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller — $109.99
• Joy-Con 2 Pair — $124.99
• Joy-Con 2 Charging Grip — $49.99
• Joy-Con 2 Strap — $19.99
• Joy-Con 2 Wheel Set — $29.99
• Nintendo Switch 2 Camera — $69.99
• Nintendo Switch 2 Dock Set — $154.99
• Nintendo Switch 2 Carrying Case & Screen Protector — $49.99
• Nintendo Switch 2 All-In-One Carrying Case — $109.99
• Nintendo Switch 2 AC Adapter — $39.99
• Samsung microSD Express Card – 256GB for Nintendo Switch 2 — $84.99

The company stressed the Switch 2 console itself hasn’t gone up in price since its original April 2 reveal, although it should be noted that accessory pricing has gone up in the U.S. since that date. (We didn’t know official Canadian pricing until now to make such a comparison.)
