Super Mario Wonder is a marvel. It's an almost endlessly creative side-scrolling platformer for Nintendo Switch that keeps throwing surprises at you from start to finish. It plays great solo, but it's also a terrific couch co-op game to play with a partner. And right now, instead of the $60 MSRP, you can grab Super Mario Wonder on sale for $10 off at both Amazon and Walmart.
Super Mario Wonder is $50
Super Mario Wonder is the best Mario game since Super Mario World, in my opinion, and I've played them all. Mario World is my favorite game of all time, for the record, and Wonder comes really close. I beat Mario Wonder playing co-op with my wife over the course of several weeks, and it was a lovely way to spend time. I recommend it. It's just a fun, creative game that reaches heights barely any other video game franchise can even touch. Loved it.
But don't take my word for it. Check out our 9/10 Super Mario Wonder review to see why our reviewer wrote, "Super Mario Bros. Wonder establishes a new standard for what 2D Mario platformers should look like. It is colorful, it is alive, and it is joyful. It also managed to surprise and delight me in continually more creative ways thanks to its unpredictable Wonder Effects, which transform levels into something completely different for a brief while."
If you haven't played it yet, it's absolutely worth picking up for 17% off, bringing it down to a lighter $50. You won't likely regret it. In other Nintendo news, there's a fun new new pastel pink Joy-Con set coming out soon, as well as a similarly colored "dream vapor" Xbox controller. And if that's not enough pink in your life, check out our picks for the best Valentine's Day gifts for the someone special in your life.
