Nintendo missed a trick with the Pokémon Pokopia Switch 2 bundle
Where's the fun design?
Attention Pokémon fans! Nintendo has answered our prayers and finally announced a Pokémon Pokopia Bundle for the Switch 2. Available on 5 June 2026 (not too long to wait), the nifty deal gets you Nintendo's latest Switch console and a full game download, so you're ready to get straight into building your cosy Pokémon world.
But don't get heart-eyed too soon. While it all sounds pretty exciting, I have one major gripe with the bundle deal – the complete lack of fun design. As we've seen in the past, Nintendo isn't shy of a custom Switch collab, from Animal Crossing to The Legend of Zelda (it's even launched a custom Pokémon Scarlet and Violet edition), so my question is: where is the custom Pokopia Switch 2 Nintendo?
For now, details have been kept fairly under wraps, but we can expect the bundle to be available on the My Nintendo store and "select retailers". It's only confirmed for Australia and New Zealand right now, so while we wait patiently for the drop, why not check out the best Nintendo Switch 2 deals below?
Sadly, the Switch 2 Pokopia bundle has only been confirmed for Australia and New Zealand at the moment, so I can't promise that it will be dropping for US buyers (sorry, guys). If you're desperate to get your hands on this convenient little bundle, Best Buy has this passable Switch 2 + Pokopia bundle, and they've even chucked in an extra pair of Joy-Cons, which go for $99.99 on the official Nintendo store. While it's not the cheapest, it's a solid purchase if you're looking for a convenient bundle.

Ah, the aforementioned special edition Pokémon Switch. This slick OLED model features red and purple Joy-Cons and artwork of Koraidon and Miraidon, a prime example of how simple yet slick illustration can make the Switch console feel that extra bit special. If only the new Pokopia bundle had followed suit.

If you're looking for a more traditional Pokémon fix, this Switch 2 bundle deal on Pokémon Legends: Z-A is a good steal. It includes a 256GB microSD Express Card for some handy extra storage, and they've chucked in a cleaning cloth for good measure. It's a fair bargain for a 2025 Pokémon title, and its high rating among fans seals the deal.

Donkey Kong Bananza received high praise when it was released last summer, making it one of Nintendo's most popular launches in recent times. Paired with Mario Kart World (and a cleaning cloth, just because), this bundle deal is a great option that gets you instantly set up with two of Nintendo's top titles.
