Ina press release, the company said that the Nintendo Switch – OLED Model System + Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (Full Game Download) will be available at “select retailers” and theMy Nintendo Store for $350. It’ll include the console and the game, as well as three months of Nintendo Switch Online so you canpractice your wavedashing against friends and randoms around the world in preparation for the next Super Smash Bros. tournament if you’re so inclined. While just who “select retailers” refers to wasn’t specified, you can assume this means your usual brick-and-mortar suspects: Best Buy,GameStop, Target, Walmart, and the like.

One thing worth pointing out about the bundle is the custom Joy-Cons you get. Sure, they aren’t captivating or flashy, merely dark grey controllers with a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate-inspired line etched on them, but they are different and come with the console.

On the other hand, some fans online are lamenting that the dock which comes with this bundle is a standard Switch dock, instead of the spiffy custom one that came with Nintendo’s previous Super Smash Bros. Ultimate bundle back when the game first launched.
