The mainline Mario games are seemingly never on sale digitally, so for non-collectors, it’s a big deal. Though $30 would naturally be a more appealing price point, the scarcity of digital Mario game sales outside of the Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle crossover makes this one to consider. If you’re looking to get a title like New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe with endless replay value without having to switch Game Cards, this is the sale.
For Wii U owners prior to the Switch, keep in mind only Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Tennis Aces, and Super Mario Party are built from the ground up for the Switch rather than remastered deluxe iterations. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe however, is the only way you’re going to compete online on the Switch even if you own the Wii U original. Not to mention the definitive edition adding Splatoon’s cast from the ignition. New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe packs both New Super Mario Bros U and New Super Luigi U.
