We're just days away from Amazon's second Prime Day sale of the year, but Walmart is getting in with some early Nintendo Switch deals that are well worth jumping on ahead of time. I'm always checking Walmart's game deals during these major sales events - the retailer always seems to be beating both Amazon and Best Buy in price, even on new releases. It's the same story today, with a number of recent releases dropping below $50 and while Amazon is keeping up with some of those discounts, Walmart's actually the place to be ahead of official Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals .
Of course, there's the big one. The Nintendo Switch OLED Mario Kart bundle appeared on Walmart's shelves earlier in the week and while Best Buy now has a listing, it's 99 cents cheaper at the big box store. You'll find it available, with 12 months of Nintendo Switch Online subscription, for $349 right now .
That's astonishing value, packing $109 worth of extra goodies into the standard price of the OLED console. It's the games themselves that are taking straight price cuts, though. Heavy hitters like Super Mario Bros.
Wonder ( now $47.87 at Walmart ) and Princess Peach Showtime ( now $47.99 at Walmart ) are currently more expensive at Amazon.
Not only that, but I don't expect these prices to fall further once Prime Day gaming deals hit the shelves next week. After all, it's rare enough to find a first party game for under $50 - even some of the older titles struggle to break that boundary. Today's best Ninte.
