SAVE $ 22: Best Buy’s 12 Days of Gaming event has officially begun, and the first deal is now live — get Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope for the Nintendo Switch for just $ 17.99.


Just as Cyber Monday ends, another big sale event begins, thanks to Best Buy.

Starting on Nov. 28, aka today, Best Buy’s 12 Days of Gaming event will bring a new gaming-centric deal every single day until its conclusion on Dec. 9. These items will range from individual game titles to console accessories and more. The first deal of the bunch just went live, and it’s a pretty good one: Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope for the Nintendo Switch is $ 22 off the original price, at just $ 17.99.

Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope is a lot different from what Mario fans are used to. This is not a platforming game like most Mario entries of the past; Sparks of Hope, like its predecessor Kingdom Battle, is a tactical action game inspired by the likes of XCOM and Gears Tactics. In it, you’ll assemble a team of classic Mario characters as well as their Rabbid counterparts and embark on a galactic journey that’ll see you rescuing Sparks, taking on big bosses, and more.

You’ll need to be strategic to reach the end of this eclectic adventure, and if you’re up for the challenge, now is a perfect time to jump in.
