It's not Mario Day yet, but we're already seeing epic Nintendo deals

For Nintendo fans, 2025 is shaping up to be a very exciting year. So far, we've had official confirmation that the Nintendo Switch 2 is coming (and it looks beautiful), while gamers have been treated to several deals and discounts on Switch games, plus there were some epic Pokémon Day announcements made last week with sneak peaks at Pokémon Legends Z-A and Pokémon champions, two new titles coming to the Nintendo Switch console. But it doesn't stop there.

This coming Monday is March 10th, otherwise known as Mario (MAR10) Day – get it? I can't wait to see what festivities are in store for gamers, although we've already been plenty spoilt so far. In celebration of everyone's favourite plumber, Nintendo has released a special Mario Day Nintendo Switch OLED bundle hitting shelves in the US, and the company is also offering everybody a free 14-day trial of its Nintendo Switch Online platform.

We might still have to wait until the April Nintendo Direct before we get any major announcements or flagship console updates to get excited about, but that doesn't mean we can't still enjoy Mario Day. I've rounded up everything you might have missed so far below, including some freebies, top deals and discounts on Nintendo Lego sets, and there's also a big Mario Day Switch game sale too!

Mario Day celebrations

MAR10 Day celebrations so far:

• Nintendo is giving away a free 14-day trial of its Nintendo Switch Online membership (a Nintendo Account is needed to claim). The offer ends March 17th at 11pm PT.

• Nintendo has sliced up to $20 off popular Switch titles that feature Mario (typically priced at around $60), as well as other Switch games too.
