Mario Day Discounts and Celebrations
“It’s-a Mario time!” This enthusiastic proclamation captures the spirit of Mario Day, which is celebrated annually on March 10. The date, cleverly spelled out as “MAR10,” has become a significant day for fans of Nintendo’s iconic mascot.
This year, Mario Day holds special significance as it coincides with the 40th anniversary of the Super Mario Bros. franchise. “This year’s event also comes as Nintendo marks the 40th anniversary of the Super Mario Bros. franchise,” a company representative noted.
As part of the celebrations, Nintendo is offering discounts on a variety of games and accessories for the Nintendo Switch. Discounts can reach up to 50% off, making it an opportune time for gamers to expand their collections.
Popular titles such as Super Mario Odyssey, which typically retails for $59.99, will be available for $39.99. Additionally, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury will also see a price drop to $39.99.
Other discounted games include New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe, now priced at $39.88, and Mario & Luigi: Brothership, available for $29.83. These deals are expected to attract both new and longtime fans of the franchise.
Mario Day promotions typically run for a limited time through Nintendo’s retail partners and online stores. “Let’s-a-go! Shop the best Mario game deals now for a limited time only, before these Mario Day deals expire on Sunday, Mar. 15,” the representative advised.
Shoppers can find these deals on popular platforms such as Amazon and Walmart, making it easier to access the discounts. With only 15 days remaining until the deals expire, fans are encouraged to act quickly.
As the celebration approaches, excitement builds among the gaming community, eager to take advantage of the special offers and commemorate the legacy of Mario.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding additional promotions or events that may accompany Mario Day this year.
