The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom pays homage to the series’ classic formula while also embracing the modern era ushered in by Breath of the Wild and expanded upon in 2023’s Tears of the Kingdom. This is the first mainline entry in the series to feature Princess Zelda, and its gameplay differs significantly from the previous top-down iteration starring Link. With the ability to create echoes (copies) of objects and monsters to solve puzzles, cross gaps, and fight, The Legend of Zelda offers a fun new spin on the classic formula. Just like Kingdom Tears, there are many ways to solve the puzzles. Echoes of Wisdom also features key components of the classic, including traditional dungeons and mind shards.
All long-time fans should play Echoes of Wisdom, but it will also be a first Zelda game for new players. It received a score of 9/10 in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom review.
Echoes of Wisdom is not the only Nintendo Switch exclusive game released by Woot. It’s not even the only 2024 version discounted to its best price. Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition Only $25, Mario vs. Donkey Kong down to $40, and Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD and Princess Peach: Showtime $45 each.
Nintendo World Championships, a competitive mini-game based on a real-life event from 1990, has not been discounted since its launch in July. It’s worth noting that this deal is for the game itself, not the version that comes with a gold NES shopping cart replica, 13 art cards, and a set of pins. If you’re looking for a collectible, the Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition – Deluxe Bundle is still available at multiple retailers, including Target and Best Buy, for the $60 price tag, though the bundle is sold out at Walmart.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong , a remake of the classic Game Boy Advance puzzle platformer, has maintained its $50 price tag since its launch in February, so the 20% discount is a steal.
Woot also has notable deals on Nintendo Switch exclusives released before 2024. Super Mario Bros. Miracle Priced at $45. Pokemon fans can get $20 off three games: Pokemon Sword and Shield and Pokémon: Let’s go, Pikachuthe star-studded remake of Pokemon Yellow . at the same time, Super Smash Bros. Special Edition Price: $43. Even though Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was released back in 2018, it’s rarely discounted below $50 at major retailers.
PSA: Woot’s new way to sell Nintendo Switch games
Note: Woot recently reconfigured its Nintendo Switch listings to note that physical games ordered from retailers are region-free versions. This means you’re not guaranteed to get the North American version of a Switch game you order from Woot. All Nintendo Switch consoles are not region-restricted, and Nintendo includes multiple language options in most games, including English in all of the Switch games listed in this article. If you’re buying an international import, the only obvious difference is the Grading Board logo on the box, which is always the ESRB for North American versions.
When actually playing the game, you won’t notice any differences between the North American, UK, Japanese, etc. versions. For example, if you purchase the UK version of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, any DLC you purchase later must come from the UK eShop. North American Switch users can easily set up UK and Japanese eShop user accounts on the Switch, so this is more of a potential annoyance than anything else, but worth remembering. That said, most of the above games (and first-party Switch games in general) are completely standalone and don’t offer DLC.
Among the games sold by Woot, four have compelling add-on content: Super Smash Bros., Luigi’s Mansion 3 and Pokemon Sword and Shield.
