It’s already impossible to get a new Black Friday bundle for the Nintendo Switch game console, but Wal-Mart is helping. Summary: Just this week, Nintendo launched a new $ 299 switch bundle that includes a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe digital code and a three-month Nintendo Online membership. This is a free gift for about $ 68 and is the best version of the switch currently available.
Of course, it will soon be out of stock at all major online retailers. But, PS5 And Xbox series X, Wal-Mart promises another online “availability window” for this bundle on Wednesday, November 25th, at 4pm PST / 7pm EST...It’s the same time Wal-Mart’s massive Black Friday sale officially launches, two hours before the next. PS5 and Xbox inventory reduced..

Here’s the new $ 299 switch bundle in the box:
In other words, you have the same great hardware that you can connect to your TV and play by hand, and you can launch some free games. So even if you’re new to Switch, you’ll still get Joy-. You can use the controller to join the car race right out of the box. Second, because much of the Switch library is digital, you can download the digital version of the game you really want.

In addition to Wal-Mart, the bundle was “available” at most major retailers (Amazon, Target, Best Buy, GameStop) as of Sunday, November 22nd. But it’s already out of stock everywhere (at least online) and will probably continue to do so. (If it’s not available at the regular $ 299 price, it’s said to be “out of stock.” There are many third-party resellers that can sell for hundreds of dollars.) That’s why we use the “regular” Nintendo Switch. Inventory tab-Exactly the same hardware, but no bundled digital code.And remember it Walmart We’ll also be offering some of the biggest Switch games for $ 15 to $ 30 in the coming days, so you can put together your own lovely gift bundle.
We will continue to update this story as inventory changes.
Nintendo Switch Black Friday Bundle
As mentioned above, Wal-Mart has promised to replenish this bundle at 7pm EST on November 25, just before doing the same on the PS5 and Xbox.
Best Buy had the bundle as of Sunday morning, but soon it was out of stock.
Amazon finally got the product page for the bundle, but is now upselling a third-party reseller who is charging an exorbitant premium.
GameStop has a product page for the bundle, but it’s out of stock.
Yes, Target also has a page for that. If you have a store near you, you may be lucky to have a curbside pickup.
Nintendo Switch Console (not Black Friday Bundle)
They come with the same switch hardware, but no digital code is bundled with the above versions. The Switch is available in Red and Blue Controllers, Gray Controllers, or Animal Crossing Edition (a game-based design, but its title is not included).
Amazon
Best buy
GameStop
What is the fair price for a switch?
Mario Kart Bundle is the best deal on Switch. Otherwise, if you find it at the regular list price of $ 299, consider yourself lucky. If the bundle and used console are sold for $ 400 or more, paying the suggested retail price “only” is a benefit of this product. Switch Lite costs $ 199, but you can’t connect that model to a TV for big-screen games.
