Christmas has come early to anyone who's been looking at buying the Nintendo Switch. While we ordinarily see these bundles crop up during Black Friday sales, this year's Switch bundle is already here. Pair the Switch with Mario Kart 8 and you've got your entire plan for how you'll spend the dark winter months sorted.

As of Oct. 10, you can grab the Nintendo Switch bundle with the console, Mario Kart 8 game, and a three-month Switch Online Membership for $299 at Amazon and Walmart. Best Buy, GameStop, and Nintendo are all offering a similar discounted price of $299.99. The Nintendo Switch console alone costs $299 at regular price so you're getting Mario Kart 8 and the Switch Online Membership for free, saving about $68.

One of Nintendo's most iconic games of the century, Mario Kart has a magical ability to transport players to some of the coolest landscapes in gaming history. With 48 Mushroom Kingdom courses and 42 characters to play, you've got yourself 2,016 races to win.

If Mario Kart's not your favorite, the Nintendo Switch is home to thousands of other popular games including Zelda, Animal Crossing, Minecraft, and Stardew Valley.
