‘Super Mario Party’ Release Date, Price, Pre-Order Guide: Get Double My Nintendo Gold Points by Pre-Ordering the Game

Nintendo Switch players are in for a treat as Nintendo prepares for the release of the 11th main installment in the “Mario Party” series. “Super Mario Party” is scheduled to launch on Oct. 5, but why wait for it to hit the shelves when you can pre-order the game right now?

By now, gamers may have already heard that Nintendo has opted to release “Super Mario Party” without any physical or digital extras. You can pre-order a digital copy of the game directly from Nintendo.com or Nintendo eShop at $59.99 and earn double My Nintendo Gold Points (300 now and another 300 after the launch). But you will have to hurry because the offer ends on Oct. 4. at 11:59 p.m. ET.

Of course, Nintendo Switch gamers can also choose to purchase the standard edition of “Super Mario Party” at their preferred retail store.

Right now, Newegg is offering the best deal at $54.99, but you can get “Super Mario Party” for $49.99 at Amazon if you have an Amazon Prime membership because they are offering a $10 credit on pre-orders. Buyers who are not Amazon Prime members will have to pay $59.99 for the game, though. Best Buy, GameStop, Target, and Walmart are also offering the game for $59.99.

“Super Mario Party” is a four-player digital board game that should attract a lot of attention because of its 80 mini-games, and people who have reviewed the game seems to think this is its best feature.

“Super Mario Party’s biggest win, and the best surprise, is its top-notch batch of 80 minigames. It’s easily the best in years, and I can’t think of any that were so stupid or boring that they were worth warning you about,” Samuel Claiborn said in his review for IGN.

“With all it does have going for it, I think Super Mario Party’s four game boards for the main modes of Mario Party and Partner Party will get old before the 80 minigames do,” he added.
