As for hardware, the only Switch deal revealed so far matches last year’s. A Nintendo Switch console with a three-month online subscription and download code for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will be available for $299.99.
Finally, and perhaps more tantalizing of all, Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit – Nintendo’s remote-controlled AR racing game – will be available for $59.99, a discount of $40 from the RRP.
Expect further Black Friday deals to be announced in the coming weeks as retailers and companies reveal their offers. It’s likely that we’ll see a fair few more offers on systems like the Nintendo Switch and Switch Lite, though supply issues may limit stock availability in many regions.
