Mario Day is almost upon us, but you don’t need to wait until March 10 in order to enjoy the festivities. Nintendo has already launched the Mario Day sale, with a handful of deals on some of the best Nintendo Switch games, accessories and related goodies.
You can browse through the full sale at the participating retailers below, but we’ve also gone through and picked out the standout Nintendo Switch deals to save you some time.
The biggest offer in the Mario Day sale is definitely Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $39.99 (was $59.99). The Nintendo Switch racer is one of the console’s biggest games and still continues to sell many years from launch – that just shows how popular it is. With classic Mario Kart DLC tracks on the way, you’ll have many corners to drift around and blue shells to lob a long time yet. If you haven’t picked it up yet, don’t miss the chance to do so for its cheapest price in months. It’s only ever been $3 less than this, too.
If you want to take your racing into the realm of augmented reality then Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit is also down to $59.99 at Amazon (was $99.99). This fascinating toy/game hybrid is one of the most unique Nintendo Switch titles as it allows you to create your own Mario Kart tracks around the home and race through them using an AR-enabled kart. Multiplayer for up to two players is supported, but you do need to buy a second kart.
There are various other first-party Nintendo Switch games reduced as well, including Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, Luigi’s Mansion 3 and Super Mario Maker 2, many of which are down to some of the lowest prices we’ve seen.
