TL;DR: Prime Day Deals on Mario Games

Super Mario Bros. Wonder for $56

Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is one of the best titles available on the Nintendo Switch period, acting as a huge breath of creativity as the console’s first new 2D Mario title. Over 150 different levels are available in the game, with plenty of secrets and challenges to uncover as you play through the story. One of the new features of Wonder is the Badge system, which allows you to grant characters unique abilities to use throughout levels. At $47.99, this is a deal you do not want to pass up.

Super Mario RPG for $39.97

Super Mario RPG – Nintendo Switch

Super Mario RPG was initially released in 1996 for the SNES, and over two decades later, a remake has been released for Nintendo Switch. This title is an excellent game, even being a great entry point into the world of RPGs. As one of the wackiest Mario titles, there are dozens of unique characters to discover who have never appeared outside of this title. It’s also one of the rare occasions where Mario and Bowser work together – the King of the Koopas even joins your party! The legendary Yoko Shimomura even returned to compose the soundtrack, making for an unforgettable Mario experience.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door for $55.40

The Nintendo Switch remake of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is getting a small Prime Day discount despite coming out fairly recently. Originally coming out in the GameCube era, the graphics have upgraded to give the characters and their environments a bigger pop of color, but the comedy threaded into the game’s plot remains a classic. We looked at the game rather fondly in our review.

If you’ve already picked up the Mario games on sale, Amazon is also offering the Super Mario Hori Nintendo Switch Wireless HORIPAD controller for $51.41. Featuring a Mario sprite running on top of a warp pipe, the HORIPAD controller is an excellent addition to any Nintendo Switch collection. This controller is very comparable to the Pro Controller, but it is missing key features like amiibo support and HD Rumble.

What Is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day is the biggest sales event of the year on Amazon, with thousands of deals available exclusively for Amazon Prime members.
