3DS Games: Buy One Get One Half Price In The US

Anyone looking for new games to play on the go will want to check out the sale Target is running this week. For select Nintendo 3DS games, if you buy one, you get another one for half price. That could save you up to $20 on a pair of handheld games. Most of the 3DS games Target sells are available for the promotion, so check out our picks for the best ones below, or view the full list here. But hurry, as the sale ends May 12.

As you might expect, whichever game is cheaper is the one that becomes half-price when you add both to your cart. And good news for people who don't feel like running to the store: you get free two-day shipping on all orders over $35.

All the Pokemon games from recent years are available in this promotion, including Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon. If you'd rather collect ghost-like creatures, you can get Yo-Kai Watch 2: Psychic Specters/Bony Spirits instead. The action-oriented Fire Emblem Warriors and the imaginative platformer Kirby: Planet Robobot are also in the sale.

Most Mario 3DS games are included in the promotion, from Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Party: The Top 100 to Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario Maker. And let's not forget about Samus, whose latest adventure Metroid: Samus Returns is part of the sale. To finish off the big Nintendo characters, you can also grab The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds or the delightfully bizarre Majora's Mask 3D.

You can find more information about more of the games in the promotion below, or you can just hop over and view the full list.
