Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition for Switch feels like a loving tribute to a pivotal moment in gaming. It’s also raw, unfiltered nostalgia for those of us who grew up in the ’90s and remember reading about (or, if you were lucky, attending) Nintendo’s road show. While there’s a digital version for those who just want the novel game — which boasts more than 150 “difficult moments” for speedrun enthusiasts in 13 titles for the NES console, such as Super Mario Bros., The Legend of ZeldaAND Metroid — The real treat may be the physical Deluxe Edition, which includes commemorative pins, art cards, and, most importantly, a gold NES cartridge replica (unfortunately, not playable) that can be displayed.
It’s uncommon to find a discount on Nintendo first-party titles, especially before they launch. However, if you’re a novel QVC customer, you can save $30 on your first order of $60 or more by using the code Hello30 at checkout. In practice, this means you can pre-order Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition – Deluxe Bundle ($59.99) and any other item to activate the discount. QVC currently has a number of great games for Nintendo Switch, including Paper Mario: Door of a Thousand Years, Pikmin 4AND Super Mario Miracle — or if you are simply looking for accessories to complement your purchase, we can recommend Hori Protective Film or a few Super Mario 3-themed socks wear while passing Mario 3-related challenges.
Both digital and physical editions as part of the Deluxe Set Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition are due out on July 18th.
