The Nintendo Switch may soon be welcoming a successor, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t still worth adding to your collection. Especially if that means picking up an excellent remake that’s a faithful love letter to the original. That’s the case with the Switch remake of the 2004 GameCube classic Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, which you can get right now at a great price.

As of Oct. 30, get Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door for Nintendo Switch at Woot for $44.99. That’s $15 down from its normal price of $59.99 and a 25% discount. This is a physical edition, not a digital code, so you’ll have to wait for the game to be shipped to you to play.

This remake gives the original game a graphical makeover with new animations, music, and other changes to bring it in line with other, more modern games. It adds new boss encounters, fast travel, and a variety of other surprises for new and old fans alike. It follows Mario and Princess Peach on the search for some lost treasure when Peach is suddenly kidnapped. It might be hard to believe, but Mario has to head off on a journey to save her.

Okay, yes, so Mario has to rescue Peach, but this time it’s from a group of aliens. Except it’s not your average Mario game, but a rich and full-bodied RPG that you’ll absolutely love if you were a fan of the Nintendo 64 original Paper Mario or any of the follow-ups afterward. This is a great price to jump in with, or return to, if you experienced the GameCube original.
