Alright, Mario fans, buckle up! Nintendo’s just dropped some big news, and it’s a mix of excitement and "why though?" vibes. The Super Mario Bros. Wonder Switch OLED bundle is official, but here’s the kicker – it’s only confirmed for Australia and New Zealand for now. Yep, the rest of the world is left wondering when we’ll get our hands on this.
Nintendo's Holiday Game Plan
Nintendo’s got a thing for dropping Switch bundles during the holiday season – it’s like clockwork every year. And usually, it’s Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in the spotlight, riding shotgun with a new Switch console. But this year? Nintendo’s mixing it up a bit.
Leaked info already gave us the heads-up that a Super Mario Bros. Wonder Switch OLED bundle was in the works, priced at $349.99. The rumors? Spot on. Nintendo has finally spilled the beans, confirming the bundle, but there’s a slight twist.
What’s Inside the Bundle? 🎁
Here’s what you’re getting if you’re lucky enough to be in Australia or New Zealand on October 24:
- White Nintendo Switch OLED Console (Yeah, not the Mario Red one… more on that in a sec)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder pre-installed (no physical or digital code, sorry collectors!)
- 12-month Nintendo Switch Online subscription (play your heart out online for a year)
But let’s talk about that white Switch OLED. It’s a bit of a head-scratcher. You’d think for a Mario themed bundle, Nintendo would have gone all out with the special Mario Red edition they released last year. But nope, it’s just the regular white Switch OLED.
The Missing Mario Red OLED 😕
Speaking of last year’s Mario Red Switch OLED, remember how it didn’t come with Super Mario Bros. Wonder? Yeah, that left a lot of people scratching their heads. And it looks like Nintendo is sticking to that decision – the red console and the game are still separate things this year. So if you’re holding out for a red bundle, sorry, looks like you'll have to mix and match.
Other Bundles Coming? 👀
The rumor mill’s buzzing with talk of even more Nintendo bundles on the way. Word on the street is there’s a couple of Nintendo Switch Lite bundles coming, plus a regular Switch bundle with Nintendo Switch Sports and a 12-month Nintendo Switch Online sub thrown in. And if that’s not enough, there’s another mystery Switch OLED bundle in the works too, though details are pretty vague at this point.
Since the Super Mario Bros. Wonder bundle turned out to be real, it’s not far-fetched to believe these other leaks might be legit too. But until Nintendo gives us the official word, we’ll have to sit tight and wait.
Will It Come to Other Regions? 🌍
It’s highly likely that the Super Mario Bros. Wonder OLED bundle will make its way to other regions, but nothing’s been confirmed yet. If you’re outside Australia or New Zealand, don’t give up hope – there’s a good chance it’ll be part of the global holiday rush. Fingers crossed!
Wrap Up 🎮
So, there you have it. The Super Mario Bros. Wonder Switch OLED bundle is real, it’s launching soon, but only for our friends down under… for now. Whether you’re a die-hard Mario fan or just looking to upgrade your console, this bundle’s got some solid offerings. But seriously, Nintendo – can we get a Mario Red OLED with the game next time?
