Nintendo's latest financial results are here, and among somewhat slumping sales and a promise that Switch 2 will be announced soon there's one big thing to marvel at: Mario Kart 8 just won't stop selling.

We’re getting toward the end of the year, a time for big game releases, catching up on older ones, and treating yourself to indulgent purchases as the holiday frenzy approaches. Here’s one of my favorite ways to save on new Nintendo Switch games, a deal so good I’m surprised the infamously stingy Mario maker is still running it.

I used to play Mario & Luigi RPGs on the Nintendo DS a long time ago. I always got a kick out of how they cleverly blended controls for both Mario and Luigi with button-mapping, making it feel like you were taking both on an adventure.

For a character that’s been around so long, Mario is in something of a golden period. Since last year his mustache has been spotted in theaters, theme parks, and the best (and weirdest) side-scrolling Super Mario game in a long time.
