Target is a Must-Visit for Nintendo Switch Enthusiasts Soon

Alright, picture this. So, there’s this Nintendo Switch fan, right? They walk into Target like any other day, not really expecting much. But bam! They hit the jackpot. Game clearance galore. We’re talking serious discounts on games like Super Mario RPG and Yoshi’s Crafted World. Yeah, those games never go on sale—not like this anyway. But here we are.

What’s wild is Nintendo just rolled out the Switch 2 on June 5, and everyone’s hyped about it. But guess what? The OG Switch isn’t dying anytime soon. Tons of games work on both systems thanks to backward compatibility. So, if you haven’t played some classic hits, it’s still worth grabbing them. Fun fact—did you know the 2017 Switch is nearly catching up to the PlayStation 2’s sales? Didn’t see that one coming.

Anyway (wait, lost my train of thought for a sec), this one gamer, goes by Fun-Acanthaceae1075 online—no clue what that name means, but who am I to judge? They shared their epic find on Reddit, where the gaming community is buzzing like crazy. Pikmin 1+2 for $14.99, Super Mario RPG for $17.99, and a couple more steals. These games usually cost way more.

The comments? Priceless. People are either jealous, amazed, or both. Everyone’s thinking, “Why don’t my local stores do this?” Reality check though—clearance is a game of chance. Not every store’s gonna have the same deals, so don’t hold your breath.

Oh! Have you ever noticed how the tires sound on wet cardboard when stepping into these stores? Weird detail, but it’s stuck in my head. Anyway, the excitement’s in the air, and some are even reminded to check their store’s clearance shelves more often. But don’t wait too long, or the deals might vanish just like that.

As Nintendo whips up more titles for the Switch 2, gaps from the older lineup get a fresh coat of paint thanks to upgraded editions. Like, Super Mario Party Jamboree got a Switch 2 edition, and you can upgrade for about 20 bucks if you already own it. Fun little upgrade, I guess.

So yeah, if you’re near a Target sometime, might wanna peek at their clearance section, see if you get lucky. Maybe it’s worth it, maybe it isn’t. Who knows? There’s this thrill to finding a hidden treasure, a sort of real-world quest that keeps gamers like us coming back.
