Super Mario RPG and Donkey Kong Country Returns HD has also received significant markdowns, dropping its prices to $41.99.
Super Mario Party Jamboree has also been reduced to $41.99, although it's the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of the game that's more likely to turn heads. Super Mario Party Jamboree + Jamboree TV is 22% off during this Mario Day sale, bringing it down to $61.98. While it's not a huge reduction, it's one of the first times a first-party Nintendo Switch 2 game has been reduced on the eShop since the console's launch back in June 2025.
What's not included in the Mario Day 2026 sale
While the Mario Day 2026 sale offers decent discounts on a variety of Super Mario titles, some of the franchise's most popular Nintendo Switch games are noticeably absent from the celebration. Super Mario Odyssey is one of the more glaring omissions, with the beloved Switch 3D platformer still costing $59.99 on the Nintendo eShop. This is particularly odd as Mario Odyssey was a headliner for the 2025 Mario Day sale, dropping to $39.99 this time last year. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is also missing this time.
As usual, it is the latest release Super Mario games are also not included in this ongoing eShop sale either. Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Banana, Mario tennis feverand Super Mario Galaxy 1+2 are all still full retail price on the eShop. However, it should be noted that Mario Day sales often include other retailers, so sites like Amazon and GameStop may offer discounts on these games closer to March 10.
