Upcoming Mario Games: Unveiling the Ultimate Gaming Odyssey!

Super Mario, one of the oldest video game franchises in existence, made his debut in the arcade classic Donkey Kong back in 1981. Since then, he has served as Nintendo's flagship mascot and has expanded into various media forms such as TV shows, movies, comics, merchandise, and even his own theme park. Despite its age, the Super Mario franchise holds immense value for Nintendo and shows no signs of slowing down.

As Nintendo's primary character, Mario has made multiple appearances during each of the company's console generations. Alongside his colorful cohorts, he has starred in 17 NES games, 20 SNES games, 21 DS games, 18 Wii games, and 29 3DS games. On the Nintendo Switch alone, Mario has been featured in 22 individual titles, with more Super Mario projects currently in development at Nintendo, promising an even larger presence for the beloved character.

Scheduled for release on October 20, 2023, Super Mario Bros. Wonder showcases a remarkable evolution of the beloved 2D Mario formula.
