    1. Then you are too late

      Nintendo gave us a 20% discount on Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, along other select games, quite awhile ago.

      1. Yeah, I missed that one, I found out about it I think 2 days after it finished. This being a separate promotion, hopefully we’ll get it too.

  1. I thought discounted was being used to say there were four Mario games that could of been on the eshop, but weren’t… I don’t know why i thought that…

  2. This is what they should do more, monthly sales, specific sales, celebration sales, I hope the E-Shop becomes more and more like Steam.

  3. Seems the eShop has become a lot like Steam, which is a good thing. I’d like to see how it fares on the Wii U.

      1. I can’t wait for next year. I bought 34 games and spend less than $150. I would have bought more but I wouldn’t have time to appreciate them all.

  4. Wasn’t Mario’s Picross just on sale, like this last weekend or something?

    How about Super Mario Brothers 2 & 3! And Super Mario World!

  5. I think Nintendo should leave them at the discounted price as a way to compete with APP prices. Besides, they are old games. They’ve likely already recovered development costs.
