With the Super Mario Bros. Movie off to a blockbuster start, now is a great time to stock up on the games that helped inspire the development of the film.

U Deluxe -- $40 See at Amazon See at Best Buy The list includes modern classics and retro ports of Nintendo's favorite plumber as he saves the Mushroom Kingdom, plus you can even score discounts on a few Donkey Kong and Yoshi games as well. On the Mario side, there's the incredible Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, which takes the Wii U classic and adds a massive update to it. From quality-of-life features to an absurd amount of extra content, this Mario game will keep you occupied for dozens of hours with its slick platforming, kitty-cat costumes, and vibrant worlds to explore.

　　For something more on the classical gaming side, you can check out New Super Mario Bros. Deluxe. Another Wii U port, this is pretty much the Super Mario Bros. experience that your parents fondly remember, but with a 2.5D presentation, more characters to play as, and levels that are deceptively dangerous.

　　If you'd prefer to play as Luigi, the real star of the Mushroom Kingdom, then you're in luck! Luigi's Mansion 3 is also on sale and lets you take control of the hero in green as he cleans up haunted locations by sucking up ghosts with his trusty vacuum pack. Who ya gonna call? Luigi!

　　Lastly, you can grab two terrific games starring Yoshi and Donkey Kong. Yoshi's Crafted World is an incredibly charming and very family-friendly game starring the little dinosaur, but it's set in a quirky papercraft world that you can explore. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze captures all the fast-paced action of the original games with its high-energy gameplay and colorful visuals, and once you get sucked into it, you'll find it really challenging to put your Switch down as you make another attempt at a perfect run.
