Nintendo selling huge Wii U titles for almost half off...

...Assuming you're cool with refurbished.

Mario Kart 8, New Super Mario Bros U (with the Luigi DLC) and Super Mario 3D World can all be had for $33 + shipping each.

Here I was really hoping that Hyrule Warriors and Captain Toad would be on that list.

Good games for a good price though! I loved all three and would say that at that price they are definitely worth it.

lol bummer! I own all of those. Nice deal though. You almost never find those games for that price.

I have 3D World and MK8. Those are both exceptional value and will lead to hours of joy and coin collecting.

No Hyrule Warriors? No deal.

Lol Captain Toad just came out though

And it's $40 anyways. :P

I'm betting that it will be the free game for Platinum members during the final Club Nintendo end of year deals.

MK 8 is easily worth it for that price.

I have 80 coins to go to get to Platinum and I need to get it before March 31st. So I was thinking of picking up Hyrule Warriors and Captain Toad, finally, to get to that. I swear to god if I was to purchase a game that they are then giving away for free as a Platinum reward... oooh boy... :P

Thinking I might be able to pick up Hyrule Warriors, do the post-play survey, and... then I need ten more coins. :S

Still playing my Wii U since last May with the Mario Kart 8 Wii U bundle and I also got one for my daughter.

Refurbished? Does that come in a real case?

$30 for the best games of this generation? Those are good deals, guys, jump on them. 3D World and Kart are especially worth t.

they also have refurbished WiiU for sale

Which hits that magic $200 people say they're waiting for.

Guess a bunch of System Warriors are buying Wii Us today. Would certainly be the time to do it.

Does that mean you'll get one? :P

@charizard1605: None of these are the best games of the generation, or even 2014

I can't imagine there are many Wii U owners who don't already own these games. Especially since 3D World is bundled with consoles nowadays.

@Blabadon: Uh huh.

Didn't Club Nintendo end last month? lol

yeah at least something I may be interested in.

I'm cool with refurbished. I'm not cool with those archaic plastic discs.

They just need to give out the free games for gold and platinum members, then its all she wrote. Since they gave away full games for coins I'm betting it will most likely be full games.

@nini200: I'm pretty sure you have until the end of March to claim points, and then the end of... June to claim rewards...? I think the second point sounds right.

That said, new games that are released after Feb 9th or something don't come with Club Nintendo codes anymore.

So they have a fairly run of the mill sale going on (that all other platforms experience) but only second hand copies. And even then it's only half price.

Right.

Nothing to brag about.

But it is! Even at these prices most of their games rarely lose value. Don't be surprised if you can sell the games for near the same price you would pay for them on this sale.

Yeah owning things are old news..

Would be nice if they had Pikmin 3

Resellers would go berserk for it. It probably would have been sold out already.

Lol. There is no need to be upset.

lol yep.

If Nintendo never does a re-print, the game might be worth quite a lot in the future.

Damn own all of those games :( but definitely a great deal for anyone looking to get any of those games.

@darkspineslayer: it looks like they've phased out the $200 refurb in favor of a $225 bundle with Super Mario 3D World. It's a good deal if you planned to purchase 3D World, but it technically doesn't reach the $200 price point anymore like it did last year...

How ? That would mean people actually having owned a WiiU and broke it...

$33 all together or $33 each? Well, either one would be a good deal. Last time I went into GameStop they had a $70 price tag on a used NSMBU + Luigi DLC on disc, and again that's used, so $33 would be quite a deal.

33$ each

That's pretty cool. New Super Mario Bros. U + Luigi U and 3D World are both very good games...

Those two games could be a good start before getting the true beasts of the console: Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, Bayonetta 2, and Pikmin 3.
