When picking a Smash Bros Switch bundle (£259), adding the discount code FIGHT at checkout will net you a half-price saving on any £24.99 Switch battle pads – Switch-compatible gamepads modelled after the classic Gamecube controller. There are three battle pad models available, in Luigi green, Pikachu yellow and Princess Peach pink.
The Gamecube controller was popularised for Smash Bros tournaments after Super Smash Bros Melee (2001), even for the entries that followed on the Nintendo Wii and Wii U consoles. The Nintendo Switch Pro controller may be more ergonomic, but the battle pad will feel a lot more like classic Smash.
To cap it all off, the code HATSOFF will also net you a free Cappy keyring – based on the hat-shaped companion from Super Mario Odyssey – alongside a real-life Cappy hat and Switch carry case that comes in the Mario bundle (£249).
You can find the bundles at the Nintendo Store UK in turquoise, yellow, or gray models.
