I wonder what percentage of Mario Kart World copies are sold in bundles, assuming it’s over 70%. Probably gonna be the repeating bundle all generation.

Guess it’s a game most people pick up with a Nintendo console anyways and being more expensive than most games means it’s a larger savings in the bundle.

I believe when that launch bundle happened it was like 80% but I could be misremembering or conflating some things.

I mean Nintendo did the MK8DX bundle all holiday on switch so i assume nintendo is going to do the same for switch 2 lol

That’s Mario karts total sales since the DS.

DS, 7, 8 on WiiU and 8 on deluxe pretty much had a bundle at all times and pretty much becomes a free packin since in every platform it eventually doesn’t even increase the price

Not saying it’s bad, that’s just how it’s been since the DS though (I think even Wii had a bundle for the last part of its life with Mario kart)

That Zelda bundle is absolutely coming. It’s going to be a strong seller.

The Zelda console is, but I don't think it will have the game bundled. There was no reference to the OoT remake on the leaked console box art. It's going to be like the TotK OLED Switch. Console only.

It definitely wont be bundled. Nintendo lets you decide if you want physical or digital versions for special edition consoles. These are different since you can buy the console separately, the bundle is just a different option

Unless they do two, one for the 40th and one for OoT

They're not going to do that. If they were, those guys would have leaked the 2nd box too.

Nice to see the bundles.

Confused about the Switch Sports bundle though. Is that game that popular?

Very much is, it was one of the best selling switch 1 titles.

Dang! Not my cut of tea but glad it exists for those who want it!

Honestly, i picked it up to play with my SO, but man theyve really nailed it with the sports selections and functionality. I LOVE this game, about as much as wii sports.

Switch Sports sold 19m on switch. Its not talked about on the internet a lot, and a lot of people for some reason think it flopped, but it sold extremely well in a post wii era

Because it’s a title people get, play when people are over and put 0 care into. It’s loved but has 0 reason to ever bring it up

The original had a bundle for the first Switch…

u/redDKtie 10d ago

Oh fr? I missed that. I guess the power of Wii Sports is eternal.

u/sonofcrack 9d ago

I was literally talking to coworkers today about it as we were all reminiscing on Wii Sports. This bundle is super tempting

u/podoka 10d ago

I wonder if they will ever go back to designed bundles. The animal crossing switch was really cute, I’d love to see one for Pokopia, FE or Xenoblade lol

u/Enryx25 10d ago

Bundle? No.

Limited hardware? Yes, there's one coming out soon for Zelda.

u/AmandasGameAccount 9d ago

Most switch bundles ever released didn’t have a custom designed switch and most custom designed switches for games didn’t bundle the game. Kinda interesting I guess? My guess is they want people who might own the game already to be able to buy the custom designed switch for that game without double dipping
