Was the MK bundle a BF special or do you think we'll see it back in stock?

I believe they will be back in stock. Judging by some of the threads from Black Friday it seems like folks were ordering Switch bundles from different stores in an effort to guarantee themselves one. I'm not saying folks were trying to scalp these items, they just wanted a backup plan in the event their sole order didn't get fulfilled. My guess is we will see many of those orders that were backup orders/plans start to be returned.

A bit of anecdotal evidence.....saw two Mario Kart bundles at Walmart #3838(Tarentum, PA) on Sunday morning while stopping in electronics before doing some grocery shopping.

It seems Nintendo is doing a decent job with inventory, so just keep your eyes open online. If you happen to be out and pass one of those stores that had stock during the Black Friday kickoff, maybe pop in if it isn't out of the way. You'll land the Mario Kart version, one way or the other.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Bundle includes the Mario Kart game, which is worth about $45. The 3 months of individual membership is worth maybe so the bonus items are worth a total of about $50.

This Switch Bundle includes the 12 Month Nintendo Switch Online Individual Membership (worth $20) plus a carrying case (worth maybe $10) so the bonus items are worth a total of about $30.

The Fortnite Switch Bundle has 2,000 v-Bucks, which is worth about $15 and the Wildcat Bundle maybe $10.00 so the bonus items are worth a total of about $25.

Yeah that MK8 bundle was by far the best. I got it from Target with my RedCard and was going to buy MK anyway. So it essentially brought the switch total to $235. I am pleased as pie.

Placed an order earlier for the animal crossing version. Supposedly delivery by 21st.. Any input if I should cancel and order this one instead? Or the fortnite version? They're both available in my area. I like the color of fortnite one but I don't feel like having my kids be aware of the game nor would I use the game code so it's sort of useless to me.

The wildcat code was selling on eBay for over $100, but might not be anymore. Check out recent sold listings to see what you might be able to get for it.

I play my Xbox but have always wondered about the fascination for Nintendo systems. They seem for younger age groups but never know what age kids should start on

I was about six years old when dad took me up to the SmithHaven mall and bought our family a ColecoVision but I had been familiar with an Atari 2600 some friends had prior to that.

You seem to imply that fortnite is not suitable for kids. Care to elaborate? I've never played it.

It really is not. You can research fortnite and parents reviews.

Thanks and appreciate it. The other bundles I'm not even interesting in for a gift as the extras would never be used. I may try to get just a console as a backup in case I can't get the bundle...but will also keep checking stores too. Good to hear that some are trickling in with still 3 weeks left.

Sure bud (as I plug it in my car for 3 hr road trip child entertainment). That value alone kicks a$$, not to mention age appropriate games. But this comment isn't surprising considering you yap more than sharing deals.

If you can go pick it up, I would just to be safe and just pick this one up incase yours doesn't show up by the 21st.

Now, if this isn't a holiday gift, they I wouldn't worry about it.

That's a good point. I never thought about possible cancellation. Thx!

Does the NSO membership come separately as a redeemable code that you can sell separately?

It did in my Mario Kart 8 Bundle; little card with the redemption code on it.

FYI, if you get it shipped from Walmart, ours was delivered (most likely from our local store) in its original box and not concealed in a Walmart box. Kids saw it on the door step... So much for Santa bringing this one...
