Latest revision as of 19:16, 16 January 2018

Nintendo Selects is Nintendo's current line of budget-priced games starting with the Wii era, the successor to the Player's Choice line. The line started in 2011 in North America, and later came to Europe in 2012 and Australia in 2013. Like with before, games released under this banner have sold an exceptional number of copies in that region, and as such are reprinted with the Nintendo Selects label and at a lower price point. Nintendo Selects titles can be recognized by the red border around the box art and gold logo.

In 2016, Nintendo would announce a similar line for the Japanese market, known as Happy Price Selection.
