In what comes as quite a surprise, most retailers are offering the game for $20 less than the suggested retail price, however two in particular stand out from the crowd. Toys ‘R’ Us comes out on top with their price tag of $69.99, while Kmart grabs silver by offering the game for just $75. Meanwhile, some of you may be interested in Big W’s introductory offer – you can pick up the game for $98 and obtain a bonus strategy guide. The strategy guide normally retails for $29.95 so you’re saving approx. $32 all up.
In case New Super Mario Bros. Wii has convinced you to finally jump on the Wii bandwagon, then there are several console bundles available that include a Wii and a copy of the game. We personally recommend purchasing Big W’s bundle as it also contains the fantastic Mario Kart Wii, plus a handy paperweight game called Cricket all for the low price of $428. If you feel like spending a little more money, then you can purchase Harvey Norman’s bundle for $488. It includes a Wii console, Wii Sports, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, New Play Control!: Mario Power Tennis and Wii Play with an additional Wii remote.
As with most big-name releases, there are a couple of trade-in offers available for those who don’t quite have enough money to splosh around. EB Games is offering the game for $19.95 when you trade-in four games. Exclusions apply though so you will have to check with your local store. GAME has a similar deal where you can grab the game for $29.95 by trading-in one game from their eligible titles list. Finally, JB Hi-Fi is offering the game for FREE when you trade-in three Wii games that don’t appear on their exclusions list (.pdf file).
