New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Switch Worth a Buy?

Just wondering what thoughts people have on NSMB U Deluxe and weather its worth a buy on the switch. The price tag is a bit steep even though i didn't play the original on the switch. Who else is getting it? Are you all excited for it?

    All quality Switch games are steep in price.

    you didn't play the original on the Wii U???? not switch??? If this is the case, buy it, its an amazing game. I will not be buying it as I bought and killed it on the Wii U. And learnt my lesson when Donkey Kong came out on the switch, as I killed that to on the Wii U, I found myself not even going back to it after an hour or so of play, even with the extra stuff they add in…. But as I said if you have not played it, its a must to get when it comes out on Friday…

    • Thank you! it does look good. Unfortunately i never had a Wii U so im glad their games have been coming out on the switch. I might wait a month or so and keep my ear to the Ozbargain site and buy it after im done sinking my life into Kingdom Hearts 3 lol

      • I’m in the same boat. Didn’t have Wii U waiting for any kind of discount. Whether from a retail store (fingers crossed Target will given they seem to be clearing out their games for cheap and they stock this one) or by discounted Nintendo e-gift cards from wherever.

  • Got mine preordered and preloaded digitally ready for Friday. Looking forward to it.

  • I won't buy any Switch titles until they are on sale. The standard retail price is just too high for me.

    • plus the current trend is new games are half price in a fortnight now anyway.

        maybe for xbox and ps4, switch games usually stay full price

          For now!

            @Topdog: For ages. Twilight Princess was still like $60 when the Wii U was on the way out.

            • @no not me: Understand, but its only in the last 3 months or so that XBOX and PS4 games are half price a couple weeks later. However yes, can see switch games staying the same price due to it being the start of its life cycle….

      • I just pretend like a game is not released until it's on sale, I started doing it on Xbox and now I've got a huge games library because.. I can buy more games when they are like half price.

      Nintendo published games rarely go on sale after the initial launch sale. You'll have to wait until the Switch is discontinued to get it under $40 which will be in 5-10 years.

  • Thanks all for the insight!

    Think i might wait till its on sale. On a 3rd playthrough of kingdom hearts dream drop distance in prep for Kingdom hearts 3. Also picked up bayonetta and hyrule warriors on the switch $30 each. Seems like the price wont go much over $69 so no harm in waiting.
