Get ready for holiday gaming with Nintendo’s early gift! The company announced two new Switch bundles that are sure to be a hit with gamers this fall. These bundles, available in both standard and OLED Switch models, essentially give you a free copy of the ever-popular Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a year of Nintendo Switch Online.
The bundle featuring the standard Nintendo Switch with Neon Red and Neon Blue Joy-Con controllers will be priced at $300. Meanwhile, the bundle with the Switch OLED and white Joy-Cons will sell for $350. Both bundles include the console, a digital download of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and 12 months of Nintendo Switch Online. Considering the Switch OLED usually costs $350 and the standard Switch $300, you’re essentially getting Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a year of online service, valued at $80, for free.
While there’s no official release date yet, and preorders aren’t open, Nintendo promises updates in the coming weeks. This might be one of the last chances to snag such an incredible deal on the Switch, as Nintendo is gearing up for the release of its successor, rumored to be dropping early next year.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, despite releasing its final DLC in 2023, continues to be the best-selling Nintendo Switch game of all time and a top choice for multiplayer fun. Nintendo Switch Online is essential for multiplayer gaming, allowing you to connect with friends and family. You can also share your subscription with up to eight people and enjoy cloud saves, giving you peace of mind about your game progress.
Beyond the core online features, Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack grants access to a library of classic games, including GoldenEye 007, Star Fox 64, Super Mario World, and a host of Legend of Zelda titles like Majora’s Mask. These bundles offer a fantastic opportunity to dive into the world of Nintendo Switch gaming, with everything you need to enjoy the best the system has to offer.
