Mario Day Nintendo Switch deals
Mario Red & Blue Nintendo Switch:$299.99 at Best BuyBest Buy has the Mario Red & Blue Nintendo Switch in stock right now, and there seems to be plenty to go around. That might not be the case for long, though, especially seeing as this special edition sold out quickly at launch and hasn’t been seen on the shelves since.
Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing Edition:$299.99 at Best BuyIf you’re more interested in that desert island life, though, Best Buy is also offering up the Animal Crossing special edition today as well.

Nintendo Switch | Mario Kart 8 Deluxe | 2 racing wheels:$369.97$349.97 at Best BuyYou’re saving $20 on this Nintendo Switch bundle at Best Buy, but seeing as deals like this have been absent from the shelves since Black Friday (and even then there was only one offer going) this is an absolute steal.
