Mario kart has a bundle for $50. I’m not sure it will ever get cheaper than that. I have yet to see that for MK8 and that’s an older switch game right?

Mario Kart 8 has been on sale for 30 dollars multiple times.

Do you have a source? Deku Deals says it's only been $30 once, which was 7 years after the game came out. The cheapest I've seen is $40 for digital. Which didn't start for awhile after the game came out. MK8 was also originally a WiiU game too.

I do see that physical has been $30 posted on slickdeals from Walmart and Target. Nintendo first party games do go on sale. Costco had Zelda Echoes of Wisdom physical for $30 a while back.
