There's no way you'll be able to find a Switch around the Christmas period even at its current price. A price drop this year would be madness. I expect a Mario Kart bundle that is the same price as the Switch + game combined, for convenience.

Yea it would be madness if you looking at the situation now.  I expected something like a 3DS launch where die hards jumped in and then sales started slowing to a crawl due to price which didn't pick up again till the 50 dollars price drop.  I still think they need a 299 bundle just to counter anything Sony or Microsoft does during the holiday.

This clearly isn't a 3DS situation though - and the really big titles are still to come later this year. Switch will be sold out for most of the year, and will 100% be sold out at Christmas.
