If you're looking for a more authentic way to set a new speedrunning record when Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition launches tomorrow, Nintendo's now offering a 20 percent discount on its wireless NES gamepads, bringing the price down from $59.99 to $47.99 for a pair of them.
The promotion runs until July 31st, so you've got a few weeks to take advantage of the deal. However, the controllers are only available to those with a paid Nintendo Switch Online membership - and the free trial doesn't count. You'll need to log in with your Switch credentials to buy them through Nintendo's online store, and Nintendo is limiting sales to four sets of two NES controllers.
