Summertime is coming to an end and Woot's celebrating the change of seasons with a little fall video game sale. There are quite a few excellent options included in this sale event, but our absolute favorite deal is on Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, which has dropped down to just $45 (see here at Woot). This is 25% off its MSRP of $59.99, so it's a great opportunity to pick it up for yourself if you've had your eye on it. Note that it may not be the US version of the game, but since Switch games are region-free, it will run on your US Switch without any issues.
In case you're in need of some convincing before hitting that 'add to cart' button, it's worth knowing that we gave this game a 9/10 in our Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door review. Our reviewer Logan Plant stated that, "Paper Mario has finally returned to its RPG roots with an amazingly loyal and visually dazzling remake of The Thousand-Year Door." He went on to say, "Everything fans have been begging Nintendo to bring back is here, including a delightfully varied turn-based battle system with satisfying real-time elements and unique, lovable party members who are essential to both the story and gameplay."
On top of that, "It also introduces a host of modern improvements that streamline (but don’t eliminate) the original’s backtracking issues, easily making this the best way to experience Mario’s quest to gather the Crystal Stars." If you're a Mario fan who's been itching to add this remake to your library, there's no better time than now to do so.
If you're looking for even more Nintendo deals, have a look at our roundup of the best Nintendo Switch deals. There, you can see even more discounts on games alongside offers on accessories, power banks, and some incredible deals on storage. If you want to see what's going on with other platforms, check out our roundups of the best Xbox deals and the best PlayStation deals.
