Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition Deluxe Set is on sale for $50 (was $60) at Best Buy. This is the first discount we've seen for the collector's version of the game. The Deluxe Set comes with a replica gold NES cartridge with a sleeve and display stand, 13 art cards, and a set of five nostalgic pins featuring 8-bit depictions of Mario, Link, Samus, and Donkey Kong as well as the Nintendo World Championships logo. Nintendo World Championships is just one of a dozen Switch exclusives discounted at Best Buy this week. You can check out the full list at the bottom of this story. Best Buy is the only retailer offering this deal. The Deluxe Set is in stock for $60 at GameStop, but it's sold out at Walmart and Target. As such, we'd recommend snagging this deal soon. It would make for a great gift for a retro gaming enthusiast. If you don't care about collectibles, it's worth noting that Amazon-owned retailer Woot has the standard edition in stock for $25 (was $30). Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition released in July and is an ode to the original Nintendo console and the real-life 1990 Nintendo World Championships. It includes over 150 minigames spread across 13 NES titles. This includes seeing how fast you can complete the first level of Super Mario Bros, how quickly you can eat an enemy in Kirby's Adventure, and defeating as many Octoroks as possible in The Legend of Zelda. If you have a Nintendo Switch Online membership, you can compare your scores to players around the world. If you don’t have an NSO membership, you can still enjoy local multiplayer for up to eight players. After each round, you'll receive a letter rating to let you know how well you've performed. You'll earn in-game coins based on your performance, which can then be used to unlock additional challenges. Here's a look at all 13 games in the collection: The collection is meant to be played with NES controllers, but there are some great alternatives to the $60 pair only available to Switch Online members. The classic gray 8BitDo SN30 Pro Wireless Controller is available for $40.49 (was $45). This controller is modeled after the SNES controller, but it also has thumbsticks and both triggers and bumpers, so it has the added benefit of working well with modern games, too. Alternatively, you can get the 8BitDo Pro 2 for $45 (was $50). The Pro 2 is very similar to the SN30 Pro, but it has longer handles and feels fairly similar to the DualSense controller. For an NES-style controller, you can pick up the Retro-Bit Origin for $25. It connects wirelessly via a 2.4GHz USB adapter and is compatible with Switch Online, PC, and Mac. This model has a color scheme matching the original Game Boy--the model with the NES color scheme is sold out.Where to buy Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition, Deluxe Set
