The Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle stands out as a strong launch package, especially when paired with Best Buy price matching or PayPal 20 percent cashback, which can bring the effective cost down by about $50 to $90. The console itself gets praise for solid build quality, excellent rumble, and social features like Game Chat, while the bundle is framed as a better value than buying the system and game separately. The main drawback is the price, especially once extra storage and $60 to $80 games are factored in. A solid bundle if you can catch one of the stacking discounts.

Did this expire? I never saw it at BB at that price, and they will not price match to Walmart for a purchase from 2 days ago.

I mean, the OLED refresh will happen and it won't be slightly better.

Until they start producing several quality exclusives for the Switch 2, there is little reason to make the jump from the Switch 1.
The biggest "killer app" for Switch 2 in our house hasn't been what I expected -- it's Game Chat.
I was skeptical, but our kids are loving being able to share screens & do voice chat with a friend who also has a Switch 2. The social dynamic seems a lot closer to how I remember it feeling playing single player games with friends growing up.

This is back on sale again. I was finally able to get BB to price match now that it dropped because they apparently would not price match competitors until Jan 1st per "policy".

Not enough? It's only broken records for the fastest selling console. Getting 100% on a test isn't good enough, you need 105% haha
Fanboy all you want but they put a console on sale 5 months after it was released so Nintendo saw an opportunity to boost sales further and took it. Smart on their part.

Just got the deal and made it sweeter with the targeted Paypal pay back later 20% cashback offer

I see an authorization from the business along with "points pending" in my paypal account. Mine was through target.
Thank you! I can confirm that I can see points pending in 'Rewards' section today (one day after purchase). Hopefully, they come through and can be converted to cash. Smilie

That's actually really good to know. Nintendo's demo of the social capabilities was pretty bad. Good to know it's enhanced the experience.

It probably sold well on launch but the sales probably slowed down more than Nintendo would like. They really dropped the ball with launch titles and although I'm not into pokemon I hear that new game was pretty bad too
Yeah, people who didn't play it or are searching for clicks think that new Pokémon game was pretty bad. I am not a pokemon fan. 70 Hours in and still playing post credits. The game is fun. Mario Kart World, DK Bonanza... absolute bangers. Phenomenal launch window. 15,000 plus available games at launch. Pineconehead indeed.

99.9% of those are old games.

Nintendo is super successful, but we don't have to cape for them so hard.

lol the way this has slowly rolled out across retailers shows that there was some sort of last minute memo from nintendo allowing people to reduce prices for Cyber Monday. Sales probably not as strong as they had hoped.
You'll have that when the console is 50% more expensive than your last and the games are like 33% more expensive.

I am a diehard Ninty fan and have owned every previous console, most of them on day one. I just can't with the insane Ninty tax anymore.

Even if the games were like $50-60 and the accessories similarly priced, I could maybe justify it.

It's only going to get worse when they start pushing first party games as key cards, and now you're tasked with spending $150+ for a large enough microsd express card to hold more than 2 games.

Suddenly you're out $1,000 and all you have got to show for it is more stick drift and a worse Mario Kart than 8 Deluxe.

It has slowed down so much that they increased their sales projections from 15 to 19 million. Yup, it's slowing down haha
