Fukubukuro is a Japanese New Year custom in which merchants make grab bags filled with unknown random contents and sell them for a substantial discount, usually 50% or more off the list price of the items contained within.
Above you can see a Nintendo-themed Fukubukuro/Lucky Bag, which costs 10,800 yen. The bag lets you choose two Switch games (Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Splatoon 2, ARMS, Pokken Tournament DX) and altogether costs $96. There's also a Super Mario Sweets Bag which contains a Super Mario 2018 Calendar and a random assortment of candy.
