The red carpet has been rolled out early for everyone's favorite plumber. Mario Day 2026 deals have officially arrived at major retailers, bringing a wave of nostalgia and next-gen excitement. For Nintendo fans, this year's celebration is historic: it marks the very first time we are seeing significant price drops on Nintendo Switch 2 game discounts alongside the usual suspects. Whether you are looking to fill out your library with verified classics or snag the latest kart-racing phenomenon, the sales at Amazon, Best Buy, and the Nintendo eShop are heating up just in time for March 10.

Top Nintendo Switch 2 Game Discounts for 2026

The headline story for MAR10 Day 2026 is undoubtedly the arrival of discounts for Nintendo's next-generation hardware. After launching last summer, software prices have held steady, making these first price cuts essential for early adopters.

Mario Kart World Finally Sees a Price Drop

It has been nine months since the launch of Mario Kart World, and we are finally seeing the first meaningful Mario Kart World discount. While the Nintendo eShop is holding firm at the standard $80 MSRP, Amazon has broken rank with a $10 discount, bringing the flagship racer down to $70. This comes at a perfect time, as rumors of a massive "Bob-omb Blast" Battle Mode update are currently circulating, making it the perfect time to jump in before the multiplayer servers get even busier.

Super Mario Party Jamboree (Switch 2 Edition)

Another standout deal is the Super Mario Party Jamboree Nintendo Switch 2 Edition. Retailers have slashed the price by over 20%, dropping it to around $61.98. If you have been waiting for a reason to pick up this visually stunning party game to show off your new console's capabilities, this is the lowest price we have tracked since its holiday release.

Best Mario Game Deals 2026: Classic Switch Favorites

While the Switch 2 deals are exciting, the best Mario game deals 2026 offers are arguably found in the massive library of the original Nintendo Switch. Retailers are clearing out inventory with aggressive pricing on some of the platform's highest-rated titles.

  • Luigi's Mansion 3: The spooky masterpiece is available for $39.99 (33% off). Even years after release, its animation and charm rival next-gen titles.
  • Super Mario RPG: The faithful remake of the SNES legend is down to $40 at Best Buy and Amazon. This is a steal for a game that typically holds its $60 value.
  • Super Mario Maker 2: Create and play unlimited courses for just $39.99. With the servers still active and thriving in 2026, the value proposition here is endless.
  • Donkey Kong Country Returns HD: Fresh off its remaster, this platforming gem has dipped to $41.99, marking its first significant sale since launch.

The Unbeatable Budget Pick: Mario + Rabbids

If you are looking for the absolute best bang for your buck during the Amazon Mario Day sale, look no further than Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. In a shocking move, the Gold Edition (including all DLC) has plummeted to under $10, with the base game available for as little as $6 digitally. It remains one of the best strategy games on the system, and at this price, it is practically a giveaway.

What's Not on Sale?

It is worth noting that not every plumber-themed game has joined the party. Super Mario Odyssey and the recently released Super Mario Bros. Wonder remain at full price on most digital storefronts this week. Additionally, Super Mario Galaxy 1+2 bundles are still holding their value. If you had your eye on these, you might need to wait for a summer sale or check physical used bins for better luck.

Nintendo eShop Sales March 2026: Dates to Watch

The current Nintendo eShop sales March 2026 event is scheduled to run through March 15 at 11:59 p.m. PT. While physical retailers like Target and Walmart may extend their promotions through the weekend, digital discounts are strict. We recommend grabbing the deals on Mario Kart World and Super Mario RPG sooner rather than later, as inventory for physical copies at these prices has historically sold out within the first 48 hours of MAR10 Day.
