One of the biggest appeals of Nintendo hardware is being able to play Mario-themed games – from Mario Kart to Mario Tennis. And right now, Amazon has discounted some of the top Mario-themed Nintendo Switch titles and games featuring Mario characters.
The deals include $10 off Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Mario Tennis Aces; $15 off New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe; and $25 off Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle.
It's a 2-for-1 on this week's chart, as the Golden Week holiday period takes Stellar Blade to the top spot, as well as some impressive Switch sales figures

Stellar Blade selling well it's great, hopefully we get a sequel or s franchise out of it!
Video Game soundtracks are an essential part of the game, setting the tone, warning you of impending danger, or for some of us, useful background music whilst studying or working on projects.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
Wow I never imagined there would be so many Mario games on a Nintendo console. Lol
