With the shopping season in full swing, gamers everywhere are scrambling the web for those precious gaming deals for themselves or their loved ones. Some dedicated fans have even brought their mattresses to GameStop in search of a Black Friday PS5.

While new consoles might be a bit hard to come by, the Nintendo Switch is as accessible as ever and fans are certainly going to want to know about the a Pro Controller bundle that comes with a download code for Super Mario Odyssey. Even better, a recent price drop for the bundle makes it so Super Mario Odyssey is essentially free as the bundle costs the same as a standalone Pro Controller.

Recently, Walmart has dropped this bundle to a lowly $69 whereas the listing price for a Pro Controller on its own is set to $70. This basically boils down to fans receiving Super Mario Odyssey for free, which makes this an incredible deal. Super Mario Odyssey is wildly critically acclaimed as one of the Switch's absolute best titles and one of Nintendo's best platformers to date. Fans have even placed its excellence above Super Mario 64, the platformer title that revolutionized 3D gaming.

Not only is Super Mario Odyssey an incredible Switch title with tons to do and see, but the Pro Controller is an excellent way to experience the game without having to potentially deal with those pesky Joy-Con issues that have become far too prevalent. Instead, the Pro Controller offers an impressive battery life and comfortable method to relaxing at a desired gaming spot and vegging out with the Switch's massive library of games.

Fans should be quick to pick up this bundle while they can as there's no telling how long this price drop will last or how long this current stock will be available. The shopping season can be brutal with consoles and games selling out like crazy, and with more people staying at home, gamers are making use of their devices more than ever before.

The sheer excellence of this bundle cannot be understated as it showcases not only one of the best gaming controllers ever, but Super Mario Odyssey is a must play Switch title that is perfect as a gift to anyone who has not had the benefit of playing it yet. After all, this is Mario's 35th Anniversary, so why not end the year in style by playing his most ambitious adventure yet?
