Let’s-a go! Thanks to the magic of timezones, Nintendo Switch 2 is now available in select regions. So, while we sit, patiently twiddling our thumbs for the clock to strike midnight, the floodgates are already opening for Mario Kart World livestreams.

Go figure. After yesterday’s reveal that Pokémon Legends: Z-A will be coming our way on 16th October, My Nintendo Store has lifted the lid on the pre-order bonus goodies we can expect to find when purchasing a copy through the UK website.
