Nintendo’s Black Friday 2019 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundle has old Switch model with worse battery

Nintendo outlined some of its plans for Black Friday 2019 today. One deal, which is returning from last year, bundles the Switch console together with a copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $299.99. Much like last year though, you’ll be getting the old Switch model.

Nintendo clarified that the Switch model consumers will be getting is HAC-001. That’s the system with battery performance ranging from 2.5 to 6.5 hours. A few months ago, a new and improved Switch came to market as model HAC-001(-01) featuring battery life between 4.5 – 9 hours.
