Recently, a Nintendo Switch bundle for "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe" has leaked through online. Nintendo Company has mounted a huge market push for the revamp racing game; with a new gameplay trailer released just earlier this week for the title.

According to Ubergizmo, fans all over the world spotted some hot topics about Nintendo on social media; the listing for the Nintendo Switch bundle was posted by Nintendo of Russia, with that region's store offering up a listing for it. However, the "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe" bundle has since been removed from the Russian Nintendo site as their fans picked up on it and the company itself was alerted to its error while the page was live at least for an hour.
