Cons

Questions and answers

Is the Mario Kart bundle worth the extra $20?
Yes, if you want the game. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe sells for around $60 and a year of Switch Online for about $20, so the bundle saves roughly $60 over buying them separately.
Which is better for a family?
The bundle. It includes Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and two controllers, so two players can race right away without buying anything else.
Do both have the same screen and storage?
Yes. Both are the OLED model with a 7-inch OLED screen, 64 GB of storage and a microSD slot.
Which lasts longer?
They are the same hardware, so battery life and build are identical. The bundle's online membership expires after 12 months unless you renew.
Can I get the bundle in other colors?
No. The Mario Kart bundle is White only. The plain OLED comes in Neon Blue/Neon Red, White and Mario Red Edition.
Which has more stores to compare?
The plain Switch OLED, with 11 stores pricing it new versus 3 for the bundle, so it is easier to watch for a lower price.
