Nintendo fans that don't own Super Mario Party and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will soon be in luck, with the upcoming release of a special game bundle containing both games. This bundle will be available from Target retail stores in the United States of America exclusively.
Preorders for the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + Super Mario Party bundle have already opened for in-store purchase and online purchase. The bundle costs $99.99 USD, which means that buyers will be saving $10 by purchasing the two as a bundle instead of separately.
It is currently unknown how long stock of this bundle will last, so gamers that want to take advantage of this bundle are recommended to preorder as soon as they are able to.
This bundle will officially be released on October 4th, 2020. As with other special Nintendo game bundles, it is very likely for this bundle to sell out fast. This cannot be purchased from the Nintendo eShop as a digital copy, and can only be obtained from Target as a physical copy.
One of the benefits to this bundle is the addition of a $10 USD Target gift card, which can presumably be used with any other purchase from Target retail stores. Of course, many fans consider both games as must-haves for the Switch, with very positive reviews for the both of them released critically, too.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was originally released for the Wii U in 2014 and re-released for the Nintendo Switch with"Deluxe" being added to the title in 2017. There are a total of 42 different playable characters, and up to twelve players can join in a race.
Super Mario Party is the most recent entry in the Mario Party series, coming out for the Nintendo Switch back in October of 2018. There are 20 different playable characters to choose from and up to four players may participate at once.
With both of these games having a strong focus on local multiplayer, this bundle is highly recommended for those living with families or those who live with roommates. While the release is coming in early October, it is unknown if this will be going on until a certain date or if the bundle will be available while supplies last. It may also pave the path towards more Nintendo game bundles like this being released through Target in the future.
Super Mario Party and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are out now, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.
