Fresh off the heels of the special edition Legend of Zelda Wii U bundle, Nintendo has announced a new Wii U Deluxe set including both New Super Mario Bros. U and New Super Luigi U all on one disc.
Effectively replacing the Nintendoland bundle that was released at launch last year, this new bundle will include the critically acclaimed pair of 2D Mario platformers only a few weeks outside of the highly anticipated Super Mario 3D World. But what about the new adopters who want to get their hands on the mini game compilation that was originally bundled? Fear not, because November 1st also brings a $20 price cut to the standalone copy of Nintendoland, with an MSRP of $29.99. Not a bad deal, especially when you consider it’s the closest we’ve gotten to a new F-Zero in almost ten years.
If you’re looking to jump on the Wii U in time for the holidays and you don’t want Zelda, (what’s wrong with you!?) two great games in one box wouldn’t be a bad way to start. While you’re at it, you can always pick up those limited edition Mario and Luigi controls that are also coming out in November. Hmm… A Mario bundle, special controllers and a new 3D game in the same month. I sense a pattern. The new bundle, of course, comes in at a cool $299.
