"The biggest and best deal from this small collection is definitely the massive discount on the Mario+Rabbids sequel. Sparks of Hope is a fantastic turn-based tactical XCOM-like featuring some great visuals and a bonkers story. If you've not played it, I highly recommend picking it up for $9. You'll have a great time."
"As for the rest of the deals, there are some good games, but the deals feel so small. And it also feels like some games are missing. Why not discount the Mario Galaxy collection? Or Super Mario Odyssey? Well, Nintendo technically is selling that and some other extra games for cheaper than usual, but only at physical stores."
Nintendo celebrates Mario Day (March 10, derived from Mar10) with an eShop sale running through March 15, 2026. The digital sale features a small selection of Mario games with modest discounts. The highlight is Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope, a turn-based tactical game available for $9, representing a significant discount. Other Mario titles receive minimal price cuts, disappointing fans expecting broader discounts on popular games like Super Mario Galaxy and Odyssey. Nintendo offers better deals on physical copies at retail stores, including Super Mario Odyssey for $40. Overall, the eShop sale is considered underwhelming compared to previous Mario Day promotions.
