According to the reliable leaker billbil-kun from Dealabs, Nintendo is preparing to release a new Switch OLED bundle featuring last year's Game of the Year contender, Super Mario Bros. Wonder. The reported bundle, set to hit European markets, will include a standard white Nintendo Switch OLED model, a digital download code for Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and a 3-month subscription to Nintendo Switch Online. Priced at €349 (approximately $388), the package is expected to launch before mid-October, potentially around late September or early October.
But while many are taking this as a sign that the Nintendo Switch 2 isn't going to be revealed anytime soon, it is, a matter of fact, a potential confirmation that Nintendo is clearing up its current inventory for its next console.
The company still has ambitious sales targets for its current hardware, aiming to sell 13 million Switch consoles before the end of the fiscal year. This bundle is part of its way of achieving that goal, which is particularly crucial with the Japanese economy in the tank, forcing competitors like Sony to hike the prices of the PlayStation 5 and possibly, even the PlayStation 5 Pro.
