Is it a price cut forever or just a sale? Its the same price at best buy too

According to NintendoEverything it doesn't say much. It also states that in Walmart the same price applies. Nintendo games being discounted like this is strange to hear btw

Yea it is. Not a great discount but still a good start :p

Hopefully they bring Nintendo Classics prices to Switch soon. I could see like Bomberman R/Mario Rabbids/Fire Emblem warriors get discounted to 20$

Woah. It's not even been 2 years yet. I wouldn't do this kind of thing until 2020 at least.

I mean the games i mentionned should be at that price since they arent doing so well.

Those discounts are doing wonders. Really shows that Nintendo could use more of that. Yes there games keep selling well after years but maybe they could sell even more with just little price drops like these.

I think they care more about profit margins then X amount of sales.

Its the same with their hardware. The switch is still making way way way way more money than the DS (despite selling far far less) so no price drop needed.

This is most likly just temporary sale/discount, nothing more-nothing less, they will again have regular price point.

And like people stated, Nintendo Selects games coming on market when platform is at least around 4 years already on market, so yeah, dont expect them before 2020.

Would've been great to say "we sell x amount of copies" we should have it at a discount, but won't ever happen tbh. All of thos game I have in the time frame of six months minus Zelda which I obtained on the WiiU and Mario Tennis, I don't feel it, waiting fos Super Mario Party though
