Last Chance: Nintendo Switch's Mario Tennis Aces Has A Nice Eshop Pre-Order Bonus
(GameSpot PS2)

Nintendo is famously stingy when it comes to sales and price drops on its first-party games. Until the company releases a Nintendo Selects edition of a game, you can generally expect to pay full price, regardless of how long ago it came out--especially digital versions. So it`s nice to see Nintendo offering a pre-order bonus for Mario Tennis Aces, which is set to launch June 22.If you buy the game on the Nintendo Switch Eshop between now and June 21, you`ll get 300 bonus Gold Points, for a total of 600 Gold Points for the purchase. That`s worth $6 in Eshop credit you can use on any future purchases.Granted, this doesn`t amount to a huge savings, especially compared to Amazon`s 20 percent off game pre-orders with Prime. It`s also limited because you have to spend it on future Eshop orders instead of getting an immediate discount. But seeing as this is an unreleased digital Nintendo game, it`s surprising to see.Nintendo offered a demo/beta of sorts for Mario Tennis Aces earlier this month. By participating, you were able to unlock a free bonus costume in the full game. You can look for our review in the coming days.
