I believe this deal is the cheapest so far for this game if you use the 12% shopback offer which would make this $56.32. It beats the previous deal by $1.68. Game release date is 28th June 2019.
CamelCamelCamel.
I keep buying games that I know are good but all they do is decorate my shelf. At least first party Nintendo games hold their value.
Same here! Except I hide mine from the missus in the spare room, thinking one day I'll pull them out and play them and nonchalantly just mentioned I got it for a cheap cheap price… or so the plan goes
Why u gotta hide it from your wife?, who's the boss in the house?
@Ichigo: She is… If you live with 3 of the female kind under the same roof, you'd know what I'm talking about
Price in title should exclude cashback.
You wont get the 12% unless shopback provide 12% cashback on the date it is shipped. Amazon don't bill until they ship the item.
really?! If this is true, mods please end this deal.
It isn’t true. You will get 12% as long as it ships within 60 days.
not true. Terms simply state it needs to be shipped within 60 days of purchase. I ordered a few games during 12% promos and received 12% Cashback even though the promo had long since ended.
also, this 12% seems only apply to fashion not all categories ,I remember it was stated by the Rep. maybe need the Rep to clear the closure and term
Can confirm the 12% applies to this, as it tracked for me.
Same for me, good price
Cashback doesn't work on pre-orders just FYI.
Oh, I didn't know that. Sorry guys.
did something change from here?
all the wording states cashback on pre-orders was fine in april :\

edit: oh i see some issues at the end. but was it just a bug?
I pre ordered this when it was $58 from Amazon and my cashback got tracked.
Yep, same for me
Seems they already fixed this issue you should get 12 if you pre order now. If not I will be very pissed off. Cos I re ordered my games just because 12, some of them even got pushed back 2 weeks for delivery. If I do not get 12. I will be sad and drop shopback an email.recently I repeat 3 orders based on 4.5-8-12% pls do not make 20 too soon, I do not want to do it again.
Cashback works if shipping is within 60 days .
Yes it does. Terms state “ pre-orders are eligible for cash back provided the item is scheduled to be shipped within 60 days.”
I would recommend adding Fire Emblem Three Houses to this as well. Fire Emblem games are usually sold pretty close to full price and it is currently only $69.

Does anyone know if you can preorder and cancel it if the reviews are crap?
You have until they ship it to cancel. Depending on when the review embargo lifts, you might not have time.
I'm on this atm but figure this will require a lot of time investment, has anyone played much Mario maker in the past that can share their thoughts?
Depends what you want out of it. You can throw together basic levels pretty quickly. Personally I don’t do a lot of building and prefer to play the included levels and highly rated player content in which case the time invested is similar to other 2D Mario levels at a few mins a level.
I imagine you can get months out of it or if you’re like me a dozen or two hours of solid platforming. Really is open ended like that and up to you to determine how invested you want to get.
It's worth your money. Puzzle levels, escape levels, platformers, recreation of classic Castlevania, troll levels. It's hundred of hours of silly stuff, without you building a single thing.
I expected to be underwhelmed by Super Mario Maker on the Wii U (it came bundled with my system) but it turned out to be my favourite Wii U game.

Doesn’t actually beat the previous deal cos I also got cashback on $58 which brought it lower than $56.32.
i bought this and yoshi's crafted world..
nintendo never have deals on their 1st party content, so pull the trigger when u see a deal from retailers
the e3 sale, yes they announced it.. only because of e3, there is an unlikely chance of another 20-30% off sale on 1st party content for awhile… keep in mind only a selected few 1st party content was eligible for the discount
i had a wii u, lackluster sales the entire time besides old games, and now with the switch only the indies seem to get regular discounts instead of the 1st party content
that 2nd link you have highlighted,, this shopback deal blasts it outa the water
Anyone worked out whether amazon preorders get the bonus stylus?
Most likely nope.
I am not sure either way, but supposedly we have to order the stylus separately after the fact maybe… So maybe we gotta send the receipt to nintendo IDK.
That's for digital purchases from the eShop.
For physical purchases, Nintendo just says "from selected stores" or something.
From what I've read it seems that EB and JB had the stylus for per-order with the premium (12 month online) pack but they've both sold out.
waiting for a deal on the zelda… :D .. hopefully can get it for around 50
How does amazon delivery work for pre-ordered games? Would the game be delivered on release date (for metro areas), or are orders dispatched on release date (Friday) and hence would be at Monday before anything is received?
I've ordered around 10 games in the past year. One arrived a few days late (due to public holiday in Victoria…), the other's all arrived on time or a day early.
Yeah, my experience is that it arrives on the day
I preordered from Amazon once before.
My order was showing good progress until the end of the release day.
Next day order status was updated with "Delayed".
I contacted Amazon and I was told the game was sold out and they don't expect more stock in the next two months.
Had to cancel my (pre)order.
So… It all depends on your luck. :)
If cashback doesn't work, you may as well get it from BigW as you're guaranteed to get it rather than Amazon not delivering on time.
These bastards only shipped it out TODAY. It says I'm not getting it until monday :\
On the plus side, surely they'll give me some amazon credit if I complain? But seriously WTF, like, send it out a day before, and if you can't then CONTACT ME. sigh. 3 day wait now.
Lame. Let us know how you go with the amazon credit.
Oh well, its coming from Moorebank, NSW, AU
