Both games are currently $10 off. Splatoon Raiders is down to $50 while Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is available for $60. The actual prices you’ll find at most retailers is $60 and $70 respectively.

Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto has spoken about the approach to Peach’s character in the games and how he wanted to change things up for the movies.
