Pikmin 4 Drops to $39.88 on Walmart Ahead of Switch 2 Upgrade

Walmart is selling the digital Nintendo Switch version of Pikmin 4 for $39.88, roughly $20 below its usual $59.99 price.

Existing owners can upgrade to that version for $10, which is $20 less than buying the $69.99 Switch 2 Edition outright.
