Currently, Best Buy is running a special promotion where customers can take advantage of a "Buy two, get one free" offer on Nintendo Switch games, even including those that have not yet been released. It is not uncommon for gaming-related giveaways to occur, with retailers like GameStop and Walmart often offering complimentary games or subscriptions to services like Xbox Game Pass when customers purchase games. Best Buy has also been known to offer these types of deals in the past. For example, last summer they held a successful "10 Days, 10 Games, 10 Dollars" sale where customers could purchase a discounted mystery game each day for two weeks. This event was so popular that Amazon even offered their own discounted prices on the titles featured in Best Buy's promotion. Currently, Best Buy is running a somewhat smaller promotion, but one that is expected to catch attention due to the specific games involved.
Right now, customers can take advantage of a special offer at Best Buy's website. When purchasing two Nintendo Switch games, they will receive a third game for free. What sets this promotion apart is that it includes highly anticipated titles slated for release in the coming years, such as Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Super Mario RPG, Pikmin 4, and WarioWare: Move It. It's worth noting that this deal is only valid for brand-new games, and the free game must be of equal or lesser value compared to the other two items.
Several games featured in Best Buy's recent offering of Nintendo Switch titles were actually announced during the Nintendo Direct livestream last week. One of the new additions is Super Mario Bros. Wonder, a 2D Mario platformer that allows players to race through the Mushroom Kingdom in co-op mode with up to four players. This game also introduces the opportunity to control Princess Daisy for the first time in a mainline Super Mario game. Another exciting inclusion is Super Mario RPG, a remake of the popular Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, originally released on the Super NES in 1996 as a collaborative effort between Nintendo and Square Enix.
Furthermore, Best Buy's latest deal includes several upcoming third-party Switch games, such as the fast-paced side-scroller Sonic Superstars, the tactical turn-based spin-off Persona 5 Tactica, and the captivating Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. While customers who take advantage of Best Buy's "Buy two, get one free" promotion won't be able to play these games until their official release, they have the opportunity to pre-order some of the most highly anticipated future releases for free, but only for a limited time.
