[Walmart] Nintendo Switch Digital - Mario Odyssey (49.96) Mario Kart 8 (39.96) - Walmart error??

i don't know if this is an error or mixup but its showing on walmart.ca

1) Text says Mario Odyssey but cover pic shows Xenoblade 2 (i think its the expansion??) for $49.96

2) The other shows Mario Kart 8 Deluxe but cover pic shows Sonic Forces for $39.96

Weird thing is that all 4 of these titles also have another set of links at normal prices.....anyone know what would happen if you purchased one of these and it wasn't what was listed? any recourse?

Appears "Mario Kart 8" is OOS, looks like people jumped on it.

Took a risk but ordered Mario Kart, will keep you all updated on what it turns out to be.

EDIT: email receipt reads -

Product Qty Item price Shipping
method Tax code Total item price
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for Nintendo Switch [Digital Download] 1 $39.96 Standard
[Estimated arrival Tue, 12/11/2018] J $39.96

But the page itself has details on Sonic Forces - https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/mario-kart ... 0197714225

It's over a year old for the Switch and it's the same game that was on the Wii

I don’t know if it’s worth risk! The picture and description match each other, the title is the only difference!
RFD has saved & made me $$$

Not yet. Here's a screenshot of the email receipt, will keep you all updated. My gut feeling says "wow, that doesn't seem like a digital download order if it has a shipping date":

Saw "limited stock" so I panicked and just clicked through :(

EDIT: I will keep you all updated. If it turns out to be Sonic Forces I plan to go to Walmart with a printout of the receipt and page (I took screenshots) and will try to see if I can get Mario Kart. Worst-case I'll keep it; I don't have either Sonic Forces (or Mario Kart).
