Nintendo is discontinuing the Mario Kart World Switch 2 bundle.They'll probably replace it with a new game like Pokemon.
MKW was supposed to be the main launch title. Now that launch period has passed, why even make the bundles anymore?
>>729021110There is literally no better game to bundle with the consoleIt should've existed for the entire consoles lifespanNintendo is just being cheap and wants customers to spend $80 on the game
>>729021110Will be interesting to see how hard it drops on famitsu when this catches up in Japan.
>>729022108I'm convinced at this point that furukawa is trying to suicide nintendo
>>729021110MKW sales about to drop off a cliff lmao
>>729022108>>729022349Switch2 will continue to sell like hotcakes Eric. You lost.
>>729022404Like Mario kart 8 oh wait
I got this bundle on sale during black Friday.Glad that I didn't miss it
>>729022549Mario Kart 8 isn’t 80 dollars.
>>729021110It'll be back next year under a new SKU or something probably, or they'll just shove a code in a box which I think some of the MKW bundles were already doing(that one on the box is the one that automatically gets claimed to the first account that logs in). MK8 was Nintendo's go to bundle game every Black Friday, they'll bring it back.
>>729022549Hey retard, MK8 was priced the same as every other Switch game
>>729021472Is it that good? The last Mario Kart I played was MK64.
>>729022889>Mario Kart 8 isn’t 80 dollarsIts $85 with the booster pass
>>729023491I think a lot of the hardcore fans aren't big on it because the intermission maps. I myself haven't played it. It's the perfect bundle because it's a really popular party game that even normies love to play, and it's a much better deal than buying the $80 standalone game
>>729023491It is absolutely not an $80 value. It's not even a $70 value.
>>729023804I really shouldn't get a Switch 2 at this point if I already have a Switch, should I? I feel like they dropped the ball with their switch 2 offerings so far.
>>729021110Nintendo's answer to the American retailers deep discounts for Switch 2.I bet the bundle sticks around in Japan.
>>729023491The game is just lazy, especially if you compare it to Kirby Air Riders, which lets you customize every single thing in the game. MKW has 200 maps that are essentially straight lines with almost no environmental interactions. The open world is barren and unlocking things is just boring and braindead. They are at least aware of this and trying to fix it from the last update, but it needs another two years of overhaul. It is objectively a worse game than 8 at this point. If you're buying a Switch 2 for the first time, then get MK 8, Sonic Crosswinds, and Air Riders, and you'll have more fun than what MKW costs and maybe revisit it in another year or two.
>>729023520Not to defend paid dlc, but breaking up payments into smaller ones makes it more managable and appealing to most people. For example, do you think mobile game players who are willing to spend $5 twenty times are willing to buy a $70 game even though it's less total money? Of course not.
>>729023491MK8D and MKW are both awesome. I'd only buy MK8D today though if they updated it to 4k60fps for ns2
Mario Kart World is comfyWhenever I feel like winding down for the day, I boot up the sandbox and drive around to travel and unlock some shit. They could have done better by having less stickers and maybe custom paint jobs, car accessories, and stuff like that.
>>729023918Honestly, I'd recommend holding off until the February Direct, see how the reveals strike you. I'm using that to determine whether or not I sell my S2. The current offerings are at best "fine" but not worth the $70-80 Nintendo values them at. The first Direct in September made a horrible first impression for 2026-2027, so February really needs to do some VERY heavy lifting. I know they're probably going to talk about at least one of their movies again, but if they fucking START the next Direct with movieshit before getting to actual games AGAIN, I'm packing my Switch 2 up on the spot and listing it on eBay. I'm not joking, I'm going to have my S2 box ready to go during the Direct.
>>729023918Yeah to me the Switch 2 doesn't seem worth it, and this is coming from someome who used to be a hardcore tendie wii u owner. Even bananza and kirby seem fun but not worth buying a $450+ console forI want to save my money for the steam machine instead
>>729024564>Steam machine It's called a desktop, sweetie
>>729023918I'd get one before the likely price increase. Sell NS1 for some money, then later if you want oled do same with NS2. I can see why some wouldn' think MP4 wouldn't be worth it but MKW/DKB are great games.
>>729024962I need both a new pc and a new console/gaming device and the machine is both in one
>>729021110they literally already replaced it with a Z-A bundle
>>729024564Switch 2 owner here. DK is the most overrated Nintendo game ever. You'll see everything the game has to offer in the tutorial.
>>729025760It feels like switchfags are trying too hard to force it as a magnum opus, as if they're desperate to make it the Switch 2's BotW moment (or just to have some concrete exclusive that justifies buying the Switch 2 early on to other people).
I think coming out with Switch 2 instead of something "new" has everyone cynical of every game released
>>729026149It costing 150 dollars more than the original Switch really didn't help matters.
>>729024528I'll never understand people that sell their consoles. It's not like they have upkeep costs.
>>729026149No, going with the name "Switch 2" is the most unabashedly smart thing they did. This is the one area that didn't need whimsy or creativity for its own sake. If anything, their issue is putting a poor first foot forward that undermines "Switch 2" as a brand for an unmistakably new generation, and mostly treating it as a Switch Pro or extended runway for the Switch 1's twilight years. NOTHING has defined the Switch 2 as a distinct next-generation leap for Nintendo so far (especially since most of the first-party games are either crossgen games or began development as Switch 1 games).
>>729027253>(they were in 8dx too)
>>729021326I figured it was because it's a pack in title that cannot sell on its own.
>>729024175>It is objectively a worse game than 8 at this point.It was always going to be worse simply because it had 1/3 of the tracks that 8 does. A base game being worse than the previous game with all the DLC is the norm, MonHun is almost always like that.
>>729025760I thought it was good but if I'm being honest, the best "Switch 2 exclusive" I played so far was the demo for Adventures of Elliot. It's a Team Asano 2D Zelda game with some RPG elements added for good measure.
>>729025760>>729025964I guess it only really sticks out because It's the only Switch 2 game so far to get above 90 on metacritic. Doesn't look nearly like it's on Odyssey's level of kino though. BOTW and that in Switch's year 1 was insane, the combined aura of them is stronger than any switch 2 game that has been announced or released.
>>729021110Is this supposed to be news? They literally announced they were doing exactly this like 6 months ago
>>729023520Booster pass is included with online. MKW is $80 and you still have to pay for online.
>>729023491>Is it that good?lollmao
>>729023918Who convinced you of this lol? A console hasn't had a first year line up like this since the 7th generation. On top of this due to the ram apocalypse it could get a price increase or they could downgrade the ram to 8 gb. So if you are thinking of continuing to play play Nintendo games now is the best time to buy one.
I have had more fun with Air Riders than I did with MKW.
>>729021110>They'll probably replace it with a new game like Pokemon.I thought they currently had a ZA bundle
>>729029551>A console hasn't had a first year line up like this since the 7th generationnigger who do you think YOU'RE convincing? The Switch 1's first-year lineup absolutely demolishes the Switch 2's.
>>729030001why are NDS niggers now pretending they werent calling the first 4-5 years of the switch library nothing but wii u ports?
>>729030112Why are NDF niggers now pretending they hate the Switch 1?
>>729021110>shitch 2 EOL in less than a yearKWAB
>>729030245Reminder that you faggots acted like the bundle getting extended was also bad news for Nintendo.
>>729030923Reminder that you faggots said America (the place where a third of all Switch 1s sold) is irrelevant when November sales didn't go your way, and said Japan was an irrelevant pedo island when Japanese Prime 4 sales didn't go your way.
>>729031036Miss me with your deflection bullshit, nigger
>>729031348I accept your concession ;)
>>729021110I thought it was meant to be a limited time bundle anyways. I'm surprised it lasted this long.
>>729021472Eh it'll be back at some point. MK8 had bundles on and off IIRC.
>>729031407>Tries to deflect>gets called out>UHHH I WIN HURR DURRwhatever you say you dumb nigger
>>729031570Who would buy a Mortal Kombat 8 bundle wtf
Damn, even Nintendo knows the game is shit. MK8D was bundled with Switch 1s up until the Switch 2's release.
just a few days ago you people were insisting that Nintendo was desperate and the switch 2 was selling poorly because they were making the MKW bundle a permanent thing
Tendies just demand even more abuse.
