Nintendo offering mixed bundling

Timothy Derdenger and Vineet Kumar from Harvard Business School  discovered that when Nintendo offered mixed bundling (the option to purchase products as a bundle), their sales of video game units went up by 100,000, and video game sales went up by more than a million. When they tried pure bundling, their sales went down by 20%. The result was fewer sales of video game consoles, and even video games themselves. (source)

Product bundling performs best when customers can  choose, especially if it saves them some money.
