It’s actually much cheaper to buy MKW bundled with the console than standalone. There is really no good reason to buy one without the other unless you’re extremely not into Mario Kart, and in that case there wasn’t a reason to get the Switch 2 until Bananza came out (after the period being reported here).
Clearly the price was less of an issue than people were guessing on the Internet. Which makes sense. The Switch 2 is still cheaper than a Steam Deck OLED, a PS5 Pro or a mid to low range smartphone. People like to compare straight sticker prices, but it’s been quite a ride for hardware prices since Covid.
