I have been holding off on the Switch 2 since launch and now it costs $500 after Nintendo raised the price in September. Sales are reportedly down 41% and I have not seen a real Black Friday cut announced. I mostly play handheld and already have a big Switch 1 backlog. Is there any realistic chance of a bundle or price drop before Christmas, or should I just grab one now and stop waiting?

    Wait for a bundle

    Nintendo almost never cuts hardware price before Christmas, but they do bundles. Last year the Switch 1 holiday bundle threw in a game and a case for the same price. Buy the console now only if you need it this month, otherwise wait for the bundle announcement - the $500 sticker is not moving.
