“After a strong 2018, both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS add to their
large and diverse libraries with two solid games starring Mario and
friends,” said Doug Bowser, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President
of Sales and Marketing. “Nintendo is giving fans on both platforms good
options to kick off their entertainment in 2019.”

New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe contains New Super Mario Bros. U
and the more challenging New Super Luigi U – two full games with
a ton of high-quality content. While you can play as iconic characters
Mario, Luigi, Toad and Nabbit, a new character also joins the mix –
Toadette. Younger or less-experienced players will love playing as
Nabbit and Toadette, as they offer extra assistance during play.

When Toadette picks up a Super Crown, she turns into Peachette and can
double jump, float slowly during freefall and boost back up when she
falls in a pit. When playing as Nabbit, you won’t be hurt by enemies and
can earn extra 1UPs at the end of stages.

New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe is a classic side-scrolling Super
Mario experience in the vein of the original games. With 164 levels
and numerous hidden secrets, it’s the ideal game to play at home or on
the go. There is a wide variety of additional game modes to entertain
players of all skill levels, and with up to four player multiplayer**,
you and your friends and family members can all play together.

New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe is now available on Nintendo
Switch at a suggested retail price of $59.99. For more information about
the game, visit http://newsupermariobrosu.nintendo.com/.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story is one of the most
acclaimed entries in the beloved Mario & Luigi RPG series.
This new version for Nintendo 3DS includes all of the original’s
hilarious and captivating content, with revamped graphics and refined
gameplay. It also includes an original new mode starring everyone’s
favorite son of the famous Koopa King, Bowser Jr., as he gathers an
army, creates formations, supports his allies with an arsenal of moves
and generally causes chaos (in the best way possible).

Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story + Bowser Jr.’s Journey
is now available at a suggested retail price of $39.99 and can be played
on the entire Nintendo 3DS family of systems*, including Nintendo 2DS
