Love it :) if I lived in the US that would make me want to shop there.

As silly as that looks, that's still really cool. Also, I didn't know Target has been around for that long, and when did Target become people's choice for buying Ninendo goods...? It's definitely one of my last places to stop at for games...

I've bought games at Target before.  I wouldn't call it my "go to".  I have found that they have very good Black Friday sales, enough so that I won't bother driving to Best Buy or Wal-Mart (which are both further away to boot) this coming holiday.  Also, I'd never actually seen/heard of Target prior to one opening near me in the early 2000's.  Caldor and Bradlee's were the closest competitors to K-Mart in my area before they went backrupt in the late 90's and then the Target's and Wal-marts began to crop up everywhere.



Nintendo is doing a better job marketing Deluxe than what they ever did with the basic version.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Nice, but I already pre-ordered via Amazon. 20% off!

Lol it's so amazing what two excellent Wii U games are doing for the Switch. Imagine if only that Wii U pad was portable... 5 years ahead of time

I did like the whole "free game" promo it had on MK8 Wii U. I got Wii Party U which I had a couple fun playing it. 



Pocky Lover Boy! 

I wish this was for Target Australia too. I want one of those beach balls.



Good advertisement but where are the deals? Target gave a $5 giftcard on the original game's release, and of course there was the lovely free game promotion, though that was probably out of desperation so we shouldn't expect to see anything like that again.
