Walmart is offering a new Nintendo Switch bundle ahead of the holidays: This one includes the console, a case and a 12-month free subscription to Nintendo Online, which enables players to play old NES and SNES games, and to join others in online play.

The bundle is selling for $299.

This one is only the most recent in a series of bundles sold at major retailers. Others have included a Fortnite-themed Switch, with the free game preinstalled and a code for 2,000 V-bucks (worth about $16). We've also seen a Mario Kart-themed bundle, which included the newest MarioKart game. Both sold for the same price as this new bundle: $299.

Between the case and the 12-month subscription (a $20 value), this new bundle is a solid deal -- especially since the other bundles have sold out within hours or days of going live.
