Just in time for the release of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, GameStop has announced that it will be receiving a limited quantity of Nintendo Switch consoles.
GameStop retailers across the country will be receiving Nintendo Switch consoles on April 28 so those who missed out on the first wave can get their hands on the handheld and one of the best games coming out this early in 2017.
“It’s perfect timing to have additional Nintendo Switch units arrive just days before the launch of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe ,” said Eric Bright, senior director of Merchandising for GameStop. “This is truly an amazing pairing of the latest in Nintendo technology innovation with a classic, iconic game.”
The Nintendo Switch will be sold for $299 but GameStop is offering up to a $200 credit when a customer trades in a PlayStation 4, Xbox One, New Nintendo 3DS or Wii U (32GB) and applies the credit towards the purchase of a Nintendo Switch. This offer is currently available and runs through Sunday, April 30.
The retailer will also be selling the Nintendo Switch and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe , gamers can pick up a Nintendo Switch Racing Wheel or Switch Joy-Con Racing Wheel for $14.99 if they want to feel like they’re behind the wheel of a kart.
Be sure to contact your local GameStop to find out how many consoles they have and be sure to get to your closest retailer on Friday because they will not last the weekend.
