Nintendo Switch Super Mario Odyssey Bundle $476.10 C&C @ The Good Guys

650
GET10

Might not be the cheapest way to get a switch + odyssey, but if you're after the limited edition odyssey bundle it seems like a pretty sweet deal.

    Good price, love the red controllers! I paid the full $550 RRP for this bundle on the day of release. Bloody nostalgia…

  • +8

    Also a good way to get a guaranteed hackable Switch.

    • What do you mean by this?

      • +1

        older switches have hardware based hacks which have been mitigated in later models

        • Have been? Nintendo already released patched hardware models?

        • @Blitzfx:
          Yes, just google which Switch serial numbers to avoid.

      • +2

        Units built in the last 3ish months have a hardware vulnerability patched by Nintendo, which this predates.

        • Excuse my laziness. What are the hacks used for? Just home brew? Or are people playing pirated games?

        • Both, or also making back ups of the cartridges and playing the game off their SD cards.

        • @jwilthethrill: backing up all your games and not having to physically switch carts is the best part by far

        • +2

          @snagseb:
          All of the above. I used it to back up my cartridges so I'm not carrying $$$ worth on a trip, play emulators, and back up save games (which Nintendo is holding hostage behind their online service).

        • @Merlict: Won't Nintendo be able to force an update somehow though? Or block you when trying to play online?

        • +3

          @nenadb:
          Nope, the exploit is at a hardware level and can't be patched.

          You do have to accept a very high chance of being banned, and it's 100% if you go online with pirated / modified games. I don't really care, since Nintendo's online is so utterly crap.

        • @Merlict: Yeah I get you. Not being able to setup fornite and such would be a limitation though.

        • @Merlict:

          Thanks. Just watched some videos on it earlier. I’d be interested in home brew games so I could play old Nintendo games etc but apparently Nintendo are starting to frown on that also and banning systems. Too risky for me, wish they would just sell a legit emulator program and cheap games, seems kinda crazy they don’t do it, could be a lot of money in it for them.

        • @nenadb: even ipads can run fortnite tho

        • @Merlict:
          Thanks for the info.

          Is the hack a soft mod on older Switches like for the Wii?

        • Do you have a link to read up on this? What serials are included?

  • +3

    Not a bad deal, I just seen Dragon Ball Xenoverse in store at Big W for $29.00

  • +1

    I wish we have the switch deal like the one from Amazon more often.

    • +3

      $315 and 7.5% from cashrewards making a total of $291.4? Oh yeah That was a pretty insane deal.

      • I will be happy with the $378, should have pulled the trigger back then.

        • Pulled it at that with the extra $20 off, and it’s been by far one of the best purchases I made. Even at $400 I’d be super happy with it.

          I sold the Xbox and lent the PS4 out after that.

    • nothing else is really a bargain after that

      • +1

        Plus the $10 prime credit they had on offer at the same time made it a killer price

  • I got a second hand one for $440. Don’t know if it’s been banned I intend to backup all my carts and play from there but waiting for the hack to be more mature.

    • +1

      Could've bought a new one and a game for that much …

      • +2

        Not the Mario collectors edition.

    • -1

      Buy sx os pro. No need to wait

  • +4

    Didn't plan on buying a switch right now.
    Bought.

  • Can someone explain why this is worth getting? Nintendo has released the red joycons separately haven't they? I'm pretty sure I have seen them at BigW although I can't find them on their site.

    • They only have them separately in Japan. It was possible to import it via Amazon Japan before now they have closed that. :(

  • +1

    Will cashrewards 3.5% work in this?

    • +2

      To answer my own question just received an email saying $8.33 tracked from CR
