2 Big Mario Series Announcements Rumored for March 10

It's been teased that announcements related to Mario series games Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Luigi's Mansion 2 HD could happen this coming Sunday, March 10 as part of the annual Mario Day celebrations. Mario Day takes place every year on March 10, with Nintendo typically celebrating the occasion with Mario game discounts and special events.

Nintendo has yet to announce its Mario Day 2024 plans, but it's likely that fans can expect discounts for some of the plumber's games. Mario Day events tend to focus on existing Mario games, but it seems this year may also be home to some big announcements for the franchise.

Pyoro, a reputable Nintendo insider that has accurately leaked Nintendo news in the past, hinted on Twitter that two big Mario games will be getting updates on March 10. Specifically, Pyoro pointed to Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Luigi's Mansion 2 HD. Pyoro stopped short of providing any further details about what fans can expect from these two games on Mario Day, so fans will have to wait and see what happens. Maybe fans will get new trailers for the games, or if they're lucky, perhaps Nintendo will even reveal their release dates.

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year-Door and Luigi's Mansion 2 are both without official release dates at the time of this writing. However, both games are expected to drop at some point in the first half of the year. Assuming that's still true, one has to imagine that release date announcements for Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Luigi's Mansion 2 HD are right around the corner. Mario Day seems like a great opportunity to confirm the release dates for both games, but fans should keep their expectations in check. It's entirely possible that the two upcoming Switch exclusives won't have any kind of announcements to share on Mario Day, and if they do, there's no guarantee that their release dates will be part of them.
