A big Prime Day deal for the Nintendo Switch throws in Mario Kart almost for free

Nintendo’s never been big on discounts, as most people know by now, but it’ll still generally pop up with a decent saving or two to mark Amazon Prime Day for shoppers, and this year turns out to be no different.

The bundle it’s knocked down isn’t exactly a revolutionary one – it’s the old classic of the console (in its newer, improved battery version) with a bundled copy of the endlessly rewarding Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

The pricing is the key, though – you get the game for an absolute steal, since the bundle costs only £10 more than the console normally does on its own. That’s a brilliant way to get you started with the Switch’s best couch multiplayer title.

You can get the bundle from Amazon for £289, and bask in the knowledge that you’ll soon be enjoying one of the best kart racing games ever made on a system that shows absolutely no sign of slowing down in popularity.
