Cyber Monday Savings on the Hottest Nintendo Gifts

Nintendo Wii U Paper Mario Color Splash #NintendoHoliday

Earlier this month, my son and I attended the #NintendoHoliday preview and spent a good few hours testing out the lastest Nintendo games. It was a lot of fun hanging out with my little guy, who showed me how to play most of the games. Where video games are concerned, this kid sure knows his stuff! Below you will find our top five Nintendo games of the season as well as some super awesome Cyber Monday savings on the hottest Nintendo Gifts.

Top 5 Nintendo Games

Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon for Nintendo 3DS -The seventh and latest installment of the core Pokémon Series, these games include a new world, new Pokémon, and all new adventures.
Paper Mario: Color Splash for Nintendo Wii U - Help Mario and friends solve the mystery on Prism Island and collect missing Paint Stars. Solve puzzles by colouring in colourless spots, revive Toads, summon allies and extract areas from environments to overcome obstacles.
YO-KAI WATCH 2: Bony Spirits and YO-KAI WATCH 2: Fleshy Souls for Nintendo 3DS - Travel back in time, learn the origin of the Yo-kai Watch, and for the first time, team up with friends and trade YO-KAI medals as you venture into the mysterious world of Yo-kai and explore an expanded world.
Animal Crossing: New Leaf for Nintendo 3DS - This one is a popular one among my daughter's circle of friends, so much so that I took advantage of a Black Friday deal and bought one for my daughter. This game inclues a free new update which expands the game by adding compatibility with amiibo figures and cards.
Just Dance 2017 for Nintendo Wii U - This is my personal favourite because seriously, when have I ever passed up an opportunity to make a fool of myself while dancing? Plus, it features some of my all-time favourite songs of the year including "Cheap Thrills" by Sia Ft. Sean Paul, "Can't Feel My Face" by The Weeknd, "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" by Beyconé and "Cake By The Ocean" by DNCE.
