In a stunning move nobody saw coming during Cyber Week, Nintendo's latest Switch 2 console bundle, complete with the pricey $79.99 Mario Kart World, took a $50 nosedive landing at $449.99 across Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. It's America’s reigning 'best console to mildly overspend on for the holidays,' boasting features like magnetically attached Joy-Con 2 controllers and backwards compatibility—basically a nostalgia magnet priced to sting just a tad less. Meanwhile, ice cream aficionados were not forgotten: Ninja’s Creami ice cream maker, a $279.99 frozen dessert wonder, churns out everything from gelato to milkshakes like a kitchen warlord. For those fearing Big Brother glasses, Amazon's smart Echo Frames descended from $300 to $114, possibly proving you can peek at everyone’s playlist for less now. Oh, and for Mac fans, B&H Photo's quirky M4 Mac Mini with a baffling 24GB RAM + 256GB storage combo landed for $679, because why settle for ordinary storage sizes when you can have a mystery machine?
