  "textContent": "While there’s no _Super Mario_ game series presentation planned ahead of Mario (Mar10) Day, Nintendo confirmed there will be a _The Super Mario Galaxy Movie_ Direct on March 9, 2026. That will appear at 2pm PT/5pm ET/11pm CET. It appeared alongside new key art that showed returning major characters like Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Bowser, Bowser Jr, and Yoshi alongside more minor ones like Mouser and Wart. However, we do know there will be sales on Switch and Switch 2 games in the series starting on March 8, 2026 and themed Lunchables with Nintendo series like _Mario Kart World_.\n\nNintendo didn’t state how long _The Super Mario Galaxy Movie_ Direct, but did confirm it won’t include any Mario Day game announcements ahead of March 10, 2026. It did note that part of the showcase will involve seeing the last trailer for the film. As the key art featured Mouser and Wart, it could mean we’ll see hints at their cameos during that presentation.\n\nHere’s the placeholder for that:\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/live/fbaZAQMwEbc\n\nIn terms of the Mar10 Day game sales, those _Super Mario_ discounts will appear between March 8-14, 2026. This will apply to digital eShop releases and physical copies at stores like Best Buy. The company confirmed the following titles will be part of that:\n\n  * _Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury and Super Mario Odyssey_ (Switch)\n\n  * _Super Mario Maker 2_ (Switch)\n\n  * _Super Mario Party Jamboree – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV_ (Switch 2)\n\n\n\n\nOn March 10, 2026, we'll also see some Nintendo Switch Online Game Boy Advance and Virtual Boy games released.\n\n_The Super Mario Galaxy Movie_ Nintendo Direct will air at 2pm PT/5pm ET/11pm CET on March 9, 2026, and the film will debut on April 1, 2026.\n\nThe post Super Mario Galaxy Movie Direct Appears Before Mario Day appeared first on Siliconera.",
