It’s MAR10 Day, the annual celebration of all things Super Mario. Nintendo itself is doing all sorts to mark the special occasion, including the introduction of a new Mario-themed Switch console bundle, a healthy dose of discounts from Mario games, and of course, a brand new trailer for the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Movie. There is a lot to get excited for!<\/p>\n

Here at Nintendo Life, we thought it would be fun to take a non-exhaustive look back on how Nintendo advertised its various Mario games over the years, spanning from the original Mario Bros.<\/a> right up to Super Mario Odyssey<\/a>. Hits or misses, there’s no doubt that Nintendo \u2014 or the ad firms it hired \u2014 flexed its creative muscles with some of these.<\/p>\n
