Nintendo announced today that five of its biggest 3DS titles are soon to be available at a permanent price drop. Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land, New Super Mario Bros. 2, and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D will all be available at a discounted price of $29.99. The price decrease will begin on April 22, and will extend to both retail locations and the 3DS eShop.
According to Nintendo, the five titles have sold a combined 9 million copies in the US, between physical and eShop sales. The upcoming price decrease is likely to increase that number. The games are far from mere financial successes, however. Each one received strong reviews upon release, including from us here at Nintendojo. If you haven’t picked them up yet, there is no better time than the present.

IMO, most of these games should ALREADY have been $30 considering how long they’ve been out.
