Target Toy Book Ad lists Wii U Deluxe Set with New Super Mario Bros. U and New Super Luigi U combo
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
As pictured in the image above, the Wii U Deluxe Set is listed for $299.99. That’s nothing new. But there’s also some sort of odd boxart which, as far as I can tell, shows New Super Mario Bros. U along with New Super Luigi U.
Could this be another upcoming bundle Nintendo will be announcing sometime within the next few weeks?
Thanks to ES4 for the tip.
