Nintendo Switch (OLED Model) Mario Red Console Available for Pre-Order

Nintendo Switch (OLED Model) Mario Red Console - $539 ($50 Deposit)

Warp into a world of games with the Nintendo Switch – OLED Model: Mario Red Edition system. The system features a console, dock, and Joy-Con™ controllers all in the iconic Mario Red color. A silhouette design of Mario jumps into action on the back of the dock. Look closely, and you’ll also find some hidden coins!


In my opinion, I highly advise anyone wanting a Nintendo Switch to avoid this special edition and wait for the new model which will most likely be announced soon.

    In my opinion, I highly advise pre-ordering this console as a new model will most likely released soon

    Wouldn't this be the case not to pre-order an older model if a new one is right about to be released?

      Fixed.

        Ah that makes more sense!
        I got confused that maybe I was missing something, the red does look quite nice

          Very plain and red for being a 'Mario Edition'

          Only thing 'Mario' are:

          • @RichardL: You'd think they'd advertise Mario a little more than a slightly bolded text on the bottom of the packaging too

          • @RichardL: Yeah…

            The special edition 3DS' coming out towards the end of its life were pretty sweet. Zelda themed, Super Nintendo themed. I mean, people are trying to flog SNES themed ones for over $1500 now. (Trying to).

            But this….. meh.

    Every year there are rumors of a new model… It might well be this year! Fingers crossed it's not just a minor upgrade like the OLED model.

    • Recent rumours suggest that the new model was shown/discussed at a closed door meeting to selected press/dev at Gamescom.

      The Switch is showing its age, so it's about time we get a new model…

      • funny. it was showing its age when it was released.
        Ps4s even overpower it.
        but i have a switch..

          Not really comparable (at the time of release) as the Switch is handheld first, home console second.

          • @RichardL: but mobile phones are more powerful , i think? this i dont know lol.

            • @Rukiata: No, you're right. Mobile phones that cost 4x the price at launch were indeed more powerful.

    • Switch Pro/2 will 100% come out next year.

    a new model at twice the price?
    no thanks.
    I'll keep using my almost 20yo nintendo wii.
    i'm sad i discarded my NES in the 90s :(

    • I remember lining up to buy Wii at midnight like it was yesterday. Another few days and I'll be 100% dead.

        I hope not. You are all that connects Oz with the outside world. Please be 100% alive.

    I'd guess it's only going to be announced in April next year when they have to announce their forecast for their next fiscal year
