With preorders included in the offer, this opens up a wealth of savings opportunities for highly anticipated Nintendo games like The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, Mario & Luigi: Brothership, Super Mario Party Jamboree, Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, and Emio: The Smiling Man – Famicom Detective Club.

If you’re a JRPG fan, titles like Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, Ys X: Nordics Deluxe Edition, Ys Memoire: The Oath of Felghana Refined Edition, and Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven might be a better option.

Other great preorders in the B2G1 free event include RetroRealms Double Feature: Halloween and Ash vs. Evil Dead Special Edition (which includes a Michael Myers plush) and Final Fantasy I-VI Collection: Anniversary Edition.

As for games that are currently available, it’s hard to beat The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Link’s Awakening, and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Link’s Awakening is an especially good one to pair with Echoes of Wisdom, as it shares a similar art style and top-down perspective. Another notable game to consider is Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition Deluxe Set, which comes with the recently released compilation of retro challenges and some nostalgic collectibles.

Aside from this great offer, Plus members are eligible for free two-day shipping on select items, access to exclusive sales, and extended 60-day returns.
