We love giveaways, y'all. Not everyone has been able to find and buy a Nintendo Switch, but we've had more than a few opportunities to win one. When there's on Nintendo Switch up for grabs, your chances are slim, but Nintendo and Post are teaming up to give away 500 Nintendo Switch consoles, along with Nintendo's most anticipated game of 2017: Super Mario Odyssey. All you have to do is eat a good breakfast!

"Post Cereals evoke feelings of fun and nostalgia for people of all ages, and those are emotions Nintendo can identify with," said Doug Bowser, Nintendo of America's Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "Nintendo Switch and Super Mario Odyssey are must-haves for the holidays, and this promotion gives people 500 chances to win them."

The codes are going to be everywhere. The press release threw out the number 20 million. Pretty much anything Post is going to have a code that gives you a chance to win -- Honey Bunces of Oats, Grape Nuts, Honeycomb, Golden Crisp, Alpha-Bits... You can enter up to three codes a day, and even if you don't win, you can still earn My Nintendo platinum coins. It's a pretty sweet deal.

The statement from Post was somewhat less touching than Doug Bowser's. From the press release: "Post Consumer Brands continues to prioritize and invest in family and millennial consumers to drive growth across our portfolio of cereal brands," said Post Consumer Brands CMO, Roxanne Bernstein. "Partnering with a highly recognized and family-friendly brand like Nintendo allows us to deliver a special experience to consumers."

Basically, "we want young people to buy our things." Oh well, we're still down for a chance to win a Switch! I know what I'm eating for breakfast tomorrow. Be sure to check out the official contest rules for more information on how you can enter the contest without purchasing anything. There's always another way. Good luck everyone.
