Gearing up for the holiday shopping season, Nintendo is re-releasing a bunch of their games and hardware since their new console, the NX, won’t be available until sometime in 2017. Lucky for us gamers, this is a great time to take advantage of some sweet discounts on Nintendo’s quality first party content. Let’s break this down.
New 3DS Mario Bundle
Starting on August 26, 2016 Nintendo will launch of New 3DS Super Mario 3D Land bundle. This is a non-XL console and will come with Super Mario 3D Land pre-installed. Previously, the only way to get a New 3DS non-XL console was if you were lucky enough to find a Pokemon Red/Blue console or to purchase the Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer bundle. Those systems immediately sold out and are currently selling for around double their original retail price on eBay. The best news about this new New 3DS bundle is the discounted $149.99 price. New 3DS XL Consoles will still be available for $199.99 and 2DS systems are still selling for around $79.99. This Mario bundle will also include two Mario themed face plates.
