In what is probably the last push for the aging Switch console, Nintendo has revealed its special offer for fans for the upcoming "MAR10 Day" Mario-themed event this March 10 as the company confirmed its current-gen console's newest bundle.
After initially being leaked, the Nintendo Switch OLED bundle has now officially been revealed, with the company offering its four-year-old console together with a copy of "Super Mario Bros. Wonder."
The company already faced criticisms when this was first leaked, claiming that the Switch 2 is already on the horizon. Still, the company seems to be pushing for the original Switch to be in the spotlight for "MAR10" Day.

Nintendo shared a new press release that details the company's offers this upcoming "MAR10 Day". Apart from price slashes for certain games, the company is also offering a new Switch OLED bundle featuring one of its famous modern titles.

Should You Buy the New Nintendo Switch OLED Bundle?
The big question now for fans is if they should buy the latest bundle from the company as, on paper, it sounds like a good deal, particularly with its pricing.
For those who want to get their console now, it is a great purchase as it already comes with a first-party game and an NSO membership, but for those who can wait for later in the year, it may be best to opt for the upgraded but more expensive Switch 2.
The Long Wait for the Switch 2: April Holds Key Event
After a very long wait and a number of rumors, Nintendo finally unveiled its Switch 2 console earlier this year, showing off the significant upgrades for the device.
A lot has changed since Nintendo first introduced the Switch back in 2017, particularly as its successor is now a larger device when compared even to the OLED version, and it also has magnetically-attaching JoyCons that foregoes the sliding rail mechanism.
The company also revealed that it will offer hall-effect joysticks that will prevent stick drift, backward compatibility to old Switch games, and more.
Despite the massive revelations in its official announcement trailer, Nintendo's upcoming Direct event in April still holds key information for the Switch 2 as it is expected to reveal specs, other features, release date, and pricing.
