LAST DAY/Switch games

Mario Day 2026 was an eventful one this year and today is your last shot at the official Switch game deals. While many of the physical game deals are long gone, there are still loads of notable digital titles live at Amazon, Best Buy, the eShop, and elsewhere through today only. From the final Super Mario Galaxy Movie trailer and the release of Mario Clash, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, and Mario Tennis classics, to the reveal of upcoming Super Mario minifigure scale LEGO sets and the Mario Kart Luigi build, we also got an official release date for Yoshi and the Mysterious Book and a giant lineup of Switch game deals too. Today, however, is your last chance at the a latter as the last of the Mario Switch game deals are scheduled to be gone for another year at midnight PT tonight. Check them out below.

Mario Day 2026 is officially over now, but that does not mean the game deals are. In fact most of them will running right through until March 18, but you will want to get in there sooner than later when it comes to the physical titles as certain games will and already are starting to sell out at select retailers (you’ll find them all below). 

We also wanted to quickly shout out the Pokémon Pokopia courtesy of Sam’s Club – members can now score the extremely well-received Pokémon life sim experience down at $62.98 from the regular $70 list price. Still up at MSRP everywhere else, it appears as though you will need to be a member but this is the lowest price around so we wanted to make sure it was on the radar.

Woot is now offering the Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Nintendo Switch 2 Edition down at one of the better prices we have tracked today, especially if you happened to have missed out on the 1-day Woot sale last month. Regularly $70, you can now score a proper U.S. boxed copy down at $54.99 Prime shipped. A $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise. It is still fetching nearly full price at Amazon where it has never sold for less than $65. While this one might not have ended being the epic long-time Metroid and Metroid Prime fans were hoping for, this is a solid chance to give it a run and add it to your Switch collection. I happen to think it is very much worth a play though at this price and there’s no telling how long it will take to see it down at $40 or less.
