Today is March 10, and every fan of Nintendo as well as the little mustachioed plumber in the cap means this! Today is Mario Day (MAR10 for March 10), and the Japanese firm is taking the opportunity to make new announcements concerning the future of the plumber which will absolutely delight fans.
For that, it's Shigeru Miyamoto, living legend of video games and Mario's dad who takes care of it through a video to evoke a big surprise.

If we expected without much surprise certain release dates for Switch games, it is with great surprise that Miyamoto confirmed something which is ultimately only very logical, the development of the sequel to Super Mario Bros. the film. Given the monstrous success of the film, a sequel could only be logical, especially with this post-credits scene which announces the imminent arrival of Yoshi .
However, it was difficult to predict that this Mario Day would be the occasion for Miyamoto and Christopher Meledandri, director of Illumination of already < strong>announce the date the film will arrive in theaters! Led by the same directors, Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, Nintendo and Illumination are working hard to release the film on April 3, 2026 in the United States.
Knowing that it's a Friday and that the day a film is released at the cinema in France is historically Wednesday, we should instead count on April 1st here with a little luck.
Paper Mario the Millennium Door and Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD
It was now easy to know why the release dates of these titles had not yet been announced. Nintendo was probably waiting for MAR10 Day to arrive in order to give its fans a nice surprise on this day in honor of the plumber.
This is how we learns that the release date of Paper Mario the Millennium Door on Switch will take place on May 23 (it's a Thursday, and therefore an error in announcing the part of Nintendo whose games are always released on Friday ?).
As for the adventures of his clothed brother green Luigi's Mansion 2 in its remastered version, Luigi's Mansion 2 HD will be released on June 27. Knowing that playing Mario helps treat depression, there will soon be something to smile about on Switch as the console has just celebrated its 7th birthday.
- On the occasion of Mario Day, Nintendo in the person of its creator Miyamoto as well as the director of the animation studio officially announce the arrival of the sequel to Super Mario Bros. the Film.
