The best Mario Day deals: big discounts on games and accessories and new consoles in stock now

Mario Red & Blue Nintendo Switch: $299.99 at Best Buy
Best 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 Buy
If you're more interested in that desert island life, though, Best Buy is also offering up the Animal Crossing special edition today as well. Back at its regular MSRP, this console has been almost as difficult to get your hands on in recent weeks as the Mario edition above.

Nintendo Switch Gray: $299 at Walmart
Of course, if you're going for that monochromatic vibe, you'll prefer this Gray Nintendo Switch at Walmart. What's more, you're even saving 99 cents off the original MSRP here as well.

Nintendo Switch Neon Red / Blue: $299.99 at Best Buy
Even the classic Neon Red / Blue Nintendo Switch has been difficult to find as of late, which makes this surprise stock from Best Buy all the more impressive.

Nintendo Switch | Mario Kart 8 Deluxe | 2 racing wheels: $369.97 $349.97 at Best Buy
You'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.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle: $59.99 $14.99 at Best Buy
We're a little more used to this $14.99 sales price than the $59.99 MSRP of Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. However, this cheaper Switch game has had a much higher price tag over the last few weeks, so if you've been holding out for an offer you're in luck.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympics Games: $59.99 $29.99 at Best Buy
If you've been missing all the action of the Olympics, this collection of Olympiad mini-games is sure to satisfy that need for some gold medals. You'll find a $30 discount up for grabs today at Best Buy.

Captain Toad Treasure Tracker: $39.99 $29.99 at Best Buy
Captain Toad Treasure Tracker is also on sale right now at Best Buy, and the $10 discount makes it one of the cheapest games on our list right now. That's an excellent $29.99 sales price for plenty of 3D puzzling action, with extra courses based on Super Mario Odyssey as well.

Super Mario Odyssey: $59.99 $38.88 at Walmart
Super Mario Odyssey is the latest canonical 3D Mario game to hit our systems, and launching alongside the console back in 2017 it's taken a few years for price drops to start. Thankfully, though, you'll find one of those discounts available at Walmart in these Mario Day deals, with $20 off the MSRP.

Super Mario 3D All-Stars: $59.99 $49.94 at Walmart
You haven't got much longer to grab a copy of Super Mario 3D All-Stars before Nintendo pulls it. This anniversary compilation of Super Mario 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy will be withdrawn from the market on March 31, so save $10 while you can.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: $59.99 $49.99 at Best Buy
Head back in time and dive straight back into the world of Koholint Island with The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. The remastered 2019 release is also available for $10 off in Best Buy's Mario Day deals.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: $59.99 $49.94 at Walmart
If you're looking to get started with some classic multiplayer action, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the ultimate game. It may feel a little old now, but that $59.99 MSRP has been holding on tight, and we haven't seen too many discounts on this particular title.

Paper Mario: The Origami King: $59.99 $49.94 at Walmart
Paper Mario is back, and this time he's folded. Grab the 3D adventure / turn based strategy game for $10 off at Best Buy right now - that's a great discount on a rarely reduced title.

Yoshi's Crafted World: $59.99 $38.88 at Walmart
Yoshi's Crafted World is also seeing that $20 discount at Walmart. With an extra dimension to each puzzle and a range of worlds to explore, this is a great game to unwind with an adventure yarn.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons: $59.99 $49.99 at Best Buy
If you missed the Animal Crossing surge of last year, you'll be glad to know that you can save $10 on one of 2020's biggest releases in Best Buy's Nintendo Switch deals. Considering stock shortages in the months after launch, this is a great price.

New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe: $49.98 $38.88 at Walmart
New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe offers that classic sidescrolling platformer action and is also taking part in Walmart's Mario Day Nintendo Switch deals. You're getting a revamped version of the original Wii U title and plenty of included DLC as well.

Super Mario Party: $59.99 $38.88 at Walmart
This board game-style collection of mini-games can host up to four competitors as each one races across squares and completes motion-based activities to collect stars and coins. If you're looking for more multi-player action, then, you won't want to miss this $20 discount in Walmart's Mario Day deals.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: $59.99 $49.94 at Walmart
While it may not be a part of the official Mario Day sales, Breath of the Wild is seeing an uncharacteristic price drop this week. You can save $10 on arguably the best game to hit the Nintendo Switch system, and that's a rarity considering this blockbuster has held onto its MSRP since 2017.

Luigi's Mansion 3: $59.99 $38.88 at Walmart
Walmart has discounted Luigi's Mansion down to just $38.88 for today's Mario Day deals. Considering we regularly see this game at MSRP that's an excellent price, and especially good value if you're looking for some multiplayer action as well.

Mario Tennis Aces: $59.99 $38.88 at Walmart
Mario Tennis Aces is available for $38.88 at Walmart right now, which means you'll be power sliding across the court in no time. This is a regular in the world of Nintendo Switch game deals, but we usually only see $10 - $15 off.

Super Mario Maker 2: $59.99 $38.88 at Walmart
Super Mario Maker 2 puts you in the designer's seat, as you build and play through an infinite number of Mario levels. You'll find it down to $38.88 in Walmart's Nintendo Switch deals this week - though a Nintendo Switch Online subscription is recommended here.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: $59.99 $49.99 at Best Buy
Best Buy is also shaving $10 off Super Smash Bros. Ultimate right now. This massive game is still usually found at its $59.99 MSRP, which makes that discount all the more exciting right now.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity: $59.99 $49.94 at Walmart
Save $10 on Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, a spin-off / prequel to the events of Breath of the Wild. If you're looking to get your fix before the sequel drops, then, this is an excellent offer.

Pokemon Shield: $59.99 $49.99 at Best Buy
Pokemon Shield has taken a $10 price drop at Best Buy this week as well, though Sword is still sitting at MSRP. If you're yet to take the plunge into GameFreak's latest creature-catching RPG, this is an excellent price.

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller: $69.99 $59 at Walmart
Grab the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller if you don't get on with the Joy-Con grip. The comfortable and - in our opinion - slightly more accurate gamepad still offers up motion and rumble functions, and is currently available for its lowest price ever in Walmart's Mario Day deals.

Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Red / Blue: $79 $69 at Walmart
However, you can spend just $10 more and grab two new controllers for your Switch. While they may not function in the same way as the Pro Controller, you're certainly getting better value here if you're looking to add more players to the mix. 

Neon Pink / Green: $79 $69 | Neon Purple / Orange: $79 $69 | Gray: $79 $69

Hori Split Pad Pro (blue): $49.99 $39.60 at Amazon
If the $69 sales price on the Joy-Con above is still a little steep, you'll find a much cheaper set of controllers at Amazon. The Hori Split Pad Pro is fully backed by Nintendo, and comes in much cheaper than the official set of controllers. You do also get a chunkier grip, which many prefer over the smaller form factor of the originals.
You'll also find the standard model available for $40.49 at Walmart.

Orzly Nintendo Switch carry case: $24.99 $11.86 at Amazon
