The Switch OLED bundle stands out as a solid way to play Mario Kart and other Mario games, especially in handheld use or for a kid. The OLED screen is the main draw, and the system is still described as great for simply playing games, with docked Mario play also working fine on the original Switch. The main drawback is value, since the refurbished price is close to used and even brand new bundle pricing, while the Switch 1 hardware is seen as aging and slower than Switch 2. It feels most appealing if the screen matters more than chasing newer performance.
The Switch OLED bundle can work well for playing Mario with a kid, especially when you plan to play docked.
Switch 2 can reduce Mario Kart 8 Deluxe boot wait time and speed up loading for some Switch 1 games.
Switch 2 can deliver improved graphics and processing, including 60 fps and 1080p output in supported games.
Switch OLED can be a good portable choice when you want a better screen for on-the-go play.
The refurbished Switch OLED price can feel inflated when refurbs are available around $250 on eBay.
Switch OLED may feel outdated for some players because it can run games at 30 fps and lower resolutions compared with Switch 2.
Switch 2 battery life can be a downside for portable play, and it may require a power bank and charging habits.
Disney Dreamlight Valley can lag and crash on Switch OLED, with performance feeling closer to 15-20 fps than 30.

Whether this is a good price or not I can't say as I haven't been following OLED switch prices since the 2 came out.
Though I should probably start paying attention and sell my OLED switch.
I play Disney Dreamlight Valley which lags and crashes often on Switch OLED/Switch/Switch Lite. The game devs already reduced textures so the graphics look a lot blurrier but it still runs like crap. It honestly doesn't feel like 30 fps. More like 15-20. I've also played the game on PS4 and even that works so much better than the Switch 1.
The graphics are the same on Switch 2 but the performance is much improved. It's getting a free Switch 2 update later this month and I'm looking forward to not having the blurry mess we have how.

As for a negative, battery life is probably the biggest one for Switch 2 if you play on the go. If you have a portable power bank though, recharging is easy. Its worth noting that I charge up to 80-90% for preserving the battery for the long run. Yes, there are others negatives aside from this one though.
So there it is, a pro and a con. Most posts are one sided with the scope and don't say both positives and negatives.
I'll probably buy a Switch2 in a few years if they come down in price and there's lots of used HQ games available for cheap. If not, I can live without.
