In celebration of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie coming to theaters, Nintendo is making it a little cheaper to get both Super Mario Galaxy games when you buy a $449.99 Nintendo Switch 2 console. Now through May 9th, you can buy a Switch 2 with Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 for $499.99 ($20 off) from Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, and Target. It’s a small discount, but it’s a good deal if you were planning to pick up a console and both games anyway.
Amazon makes it easy to buy the game and console bundle with a single click. However, Best Buy, GameStop, and Target require you to add both the Switch 2 and either the physical or digital edition of the games to your cart to reflect the discount at checkout. In all three instances, you’ll see a promotion banner beneath the price of the Switch 2, which makes it easy to add everything at once.
For a bit of context on the Switch 2, it builds on Nintendo’s original hybrid console with a larger 7.9-inch LCD screen with a 120Hz max refresh rate, eight times the storage (256GB), and significantly snappier performance. The console now comes with magnetic Joy-Con 2 controllers, too, which double as mice in compatible games and feature a shortcut button to access Nintendo’s GameChat feature (if you have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription). The Switch 2 has two USB-C ports (both support charging, but only the bottom one supports video output via the included dock), and the console is compatible with most original Switch titles. Thanks to a recent update, many Switch games will even receive a resolution and performance boost on the newer hardware, at least when playing games in handheld mode.
Meanwhile, Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 are a part of a recently remastered two-pack, and both games (which originally debuted on the Wii) look much better than before thanks to an improved user interface and 4K resolution via a free Switch 2 update. The bundle also introduces some new features, including an Assist Mode, an in-game music player, and new Storybook Chapters.
