Super Mario is currently celebrating his 40th anniversary, and one other announcement for MAR10 Day this week is a new Tetris 99<\/a> Maximus Cup and Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

As highlighted in the MAR10 Day celebrations on Nintendo UK’s website, this new Grand Prix will take place next month between 3rd April 2026<\/strong> and 7th April 2026<\/strong>, and allows players to unlock a special Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2<\/a> in-game theme when they collect over 100 points<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If Nintendo shares a video of theme we’ll provide an update. To participate, you’ll need to have an active Switch Online subscription. This theme follows Galaxy 1 + 2’s release on the Switch last October. These games have also received some enhancements for the Switch 2<\/a>. Their return leads into the Super Mario Galaxy Movie next month.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Nintendo hosted a Direct for the upcoming movie, sharing a new trailer and some additional announcements. It’s also made a new Galaxy-themed item available on the My Nintendo Store in North America.<\/p>\n
