Super Mario RPG for Switch Is Now Down to Record Low Price
The Nintendo Switch 2 is at least a good few months away from launch, but there are still a multitude of brilliant games that can be picked up for the original console. And with the majority of Switch games expected to be compatible with the console's successor, there's no money lost when buying current games. This is especially the case with titles like Super Mario RPG, which is being discounted by well over 50%. GameStop members can score the Super Mario RPG game for just $22, an impressive $38 savings. As for nonmembers, it's only $3 more, coming out to $25. Super Mario RPG has you taking Mario into an entirely different genre, and with a truly stunning art style. Rather than running around platforming, you'll find yourself battling it out in turn-based fights against classic foes and new ones, and you'll even get to meet new friends along the way. It's a real delight of a game, and if you've never played it, this is your best chance yet. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. It's also worth remembering that Nintendo games rarely drop in price. The Japanese game maker likes to keep its products at full price (here being $60). That's why any discount is worth shouting about. Super Mario RPG is a remake of 1996's Super Mario RPG: Legends of the Seven Stars, a beloved RPG that launched for the SNES. It was originally developed by Square but then ArtePiazza in 2023 for the Switch. It's full of whimsy, colorful worlds and fantastic boss fights similar to classic Final Fantasy. Best of all, it's never been cheaper. It was previously down to $30 at Target during MLK Day. But now it's even less. GameStop Pro members can score it for $22 while non members can score it for $25, both options are still cheaper than the previous record low. The size of the discount, and the fact that it's on a Mario game, make this one of the best Nintendo Switch deals going on right now. So if you fancy the game, don't pass this chance up.
