Get some bang for your buck with these Nintendo Switch console deals at Walmart

By

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are in the rearview mirror, but you can still find great deals on consoles this holiday season. If you missed out on snagging a Nintendo Switch on a discount, Walmart has multiple Switch deals to take advantage of starting Sunday, December 9.

Nintendo Switch ‘Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle’ bundle ($299)

Right now you can grab a Nintendo Switch with a physical copy of Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle for $299. That means you’re getting a $60 game for free with your new Switch console. Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle is a great turn-based strategy game that injects zany humor into the XCOM turn-based strategy formula. You’d be surprised at how well the mashup of the Mushroom Kingdom and Ubisoft’s Rabbids works.

Nintendo Switch Labo/controller bundle ($339)

This bundle comes with a Switch console, a Nintendo Labo kit, and an Ematic wired controller (fashioned off the official Pro Controller) for $339. Labo kits are normally $70, and you have your pick of the Variety, Robot, or Vehicle kit. Nintendo Labo is a DIY construction kit that lets kids (and kids at heart) make cardboard pianos, fishing rods, motorbikes, and more. Then you can use your builds to play the included software with the help of the nifty Joy-Con. When you add the controller to the mix, you’re saving a total of $50.

Nintendo Switch with free controllers ($299-$315)

This bundle includes two Ematic wired controllers totally free when you buy a Switch at its regular retailer price of $299. If you’d rather have wireless controllers, you can pay $315 to get two Ematic wireless controllers instead.

Walmart

Nintendo Switch with VR headset ($300)

You’re better off purchasing any of the other three, but if they sell out, you can get a Switch for $299 with a VR-Tek headset for free. The VR-Tek headset is a budget headset for Windows PCs, so it has absolutely nothing to do with Switch. But hey, it’s free with the purchase of a Switch.

Nintendo Switch 2: 5 features we want in the next-gen console
Prime Day Nintendo Switch Deals

Rumors of a Nintendo Switch 2 (or Switch Pro) have been circulating for years.  Whispers of the next-gen Nintendo console first started when The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was first teased in 2019, gained steam when the Switch OLED launched in 2021, and are increasing now that the standard Switch has been out for six years.

There's no doubt that the Nintendo Switch is a fantastic console -- it has a unique and impressive game library (with more upcoming games slated for this year), the number of features included with Nintendo Switch Online is constantly improving, and it's still our favorite portable console -- but it isn't without its flaws. There's enough room for improvement that would warrant an entirely new console in the near future. Nintendo recently announced that we won't see a Switch upgrade in the next fiscal year, meaning the absolute earliest we get a look at a new Nintendo console would be in late 2024.

Nintendo Switch’s weirdest launch game is getting a surprise sequel
Key art for Everybody 1-2-Switch!

Nintendo has quietly announced Everybody 1-2-Switch!, a sequel to one of the oddest launch titles for Nintendo Switch.
1-2-Switch! was a Nintendo Switch launch title that served as a tech demo of sorts for the Joy-Con controllers, with players completing minigames based on direction from actors in live-action clips. It's a very quirky and critically divisive Nintendo Switch game, so it's a bit surprising to see a follow-up. According to the eShop listing for Everybody 1-2-Switch!, this game lets players use their Joy-Cons or smartphones to complete a variety of team-based minigames. And that's about all we've seen or know about this $30 game ahead of its June 30 launch alongside some new pastel Joy-Cons.

Everybody 1-2-Switch!'s announcement was quite unorthodox for Nintendo. It simply tweeted about the game's existence and opened up preorders on the eShop. This all happened with no reveal trailer less than a month before the game's launch. It's unknown why Nintendo's taking this approach instead of including the game in a Nintendo Direct or other major showcase, but a 2022 report from Fanbyte may reveal the answer. According to that report, Everybody 1-2-Switch! tested horribly, and Nintendo worried that the game could "damage the company’s reputation as a great software developer." 
Almost a year after that report, it seems that the game has improved enough to release, or maybe Nintendo is just willing to take the hit after the impressive launch and critical reception of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Either way, this is a weird sequel to a weird Nintendo Switch launch game that's being mutedly marketed so it doesn't elicit much hype. We'll just have to wait and play it for ourselves if we want to know whether Everybody 1-2-Switch! is an enjoyable game or not.
Everybody 1-2-Switch! will be released physically and digitally for Nintendo Switch on June 30.

How to get Wild Greens in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Link standing next to Sundelions in Tears of the Kingdom.

In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you might encounter the Gloom-Borne Illness quest, which requires you to find Wild Greens. However, there isn't actually an item called "Wild Greens," making this quest particularly tricky to complete. In this guide, we'll show you where to find Wild Greens in Tears of the Kingdom.
Where to find Wild Greens

The most important thing to note with this quest is the item you need is actually the Sundelion. The game is purposely vague, making it difficult to know what the actual item you need is. These items are found in various locations around Hyrule, but the most consistent way to find them is to visit a Sky Island around the following coordinates: -2,184, 0966, 1637.
