Kohl’s isn’t exactly known for video game sales, but the retailer will be hosting a Nintendo-related deal on Black Friday. You’ll be able to purchase the Mario Party: Island Tour 3DS XL bundle for only $150. It’s normally sold for $220, so you’ll be saving $70.

Update: Bumped to the top. This is an interesting twist! Was the whole stunt staged? New findings certainly point in that direction!

Listings for castings were discovered on LA Casting last week:

Karissa’s full name also seems to be “Karissa Bannister”. She’s an actress who appeared in a Ford commercial.

One GameStop outlet held an event for Smash Bros. Wii U yesterday. That wouldn’t be news under most circumstances… if not for “Karissa”!

“Karissa”, a 10-year-old girl, managed to beat several top West Coast Smash players at GameStop’s event. You can get a look at Karissa dominating the competition in the videos below.
