Knowing how to pre-order Paper Mario: The Origami King suddenly got very important very quickly. The recent announcement came out of nowhere; it was a big but welcome surprise, not unlike a secret star or hidden course. As such, getting a Paper Mario: The Origami King pre-order done now is ideal.

Paper Mario: The Origami King looks like it'll hark back to the older style of Paper Mario games. More specifically, it'll expand the last two entries' emphasis on creating an all-craft world, with environments that seem to be made from construction paper. Sounds fun, right? And very Nintendo. It's enough for us to pre-order Paper Mario, anyway.

The game's story is concerned with strange creatures - made from thick, folded card - that have spread throughout the Mushroom Kingdom. With Princess Peach having been turned into one of these origami monstrosities, Mario must turn detective and get to the bottom of this mysterious invasion. If you're looking for more info, my eagle-eyed colleague Austin manged to pull out loads of details from the Paper Mario: The Origami King trailer.

To make sure you can play on day one and begin enjoying the game without delay, here are the best Paper Mario pre-order prices.

Getting the most out of your Paper Mario pre-order

To get the most out of Paper Mario: The Origami King, you'll want to aim for a Nintendo Switch setup that's as optimized as possible. Starting simply, that means examining what the best Nintendo Switch bundles going offer you. Elsewhere, you'll probably want to see what your options are for getting a cheap Nintendo Switch controller if you want a more traditional Pro Controller to play Paper Mario with, not to mention raiding retailers for some of the best Nintendo Switch accessories. One of the accessories that you should definitely invest in is a Nintendo Switch SD card for general use, as well as the fact that the Switch only comes with the alarmingly low 32GB of memory as standard. To complete the package, protect your Switch with the best case for Nintendo Switch and then plug in one of the best Nintendo Switch headsets to have your Animal Crossing game fully serviced and optimized. 

A lot to consider perhaps, particularly given Nintendo gear holds its price quite stubbornly. However, if you're able to upgrade your Switch set up in any of these departments, then you'll be off to a blinder.
