LEGO celebrates Mario Day

It's Mar10 Day AKA Mario Day and LEGO is celebrating in style with exclusive VIP offers and rewards all week.

Get your overalls and fake moustaches ready, because LEGO and Nintendo have teamed up again for something big for Mario Day! Speculation suggests Donkey Kong and The Super Mario Bros. Movie building sets.

LEGO's Super Mario building sets have proved popular with fans (myself included). I'd love to see The Legend of Zelda sets in the future. Especially with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom releasing on Nintendo Switch this May.

LEGO brings Super Mario Maker to life

As teased on Mar10 Day, LEGO Super Mario sets are a thing and can be played as a game without needing to own a Nintendo Switch.

Takashi Tezuka, executive officer at Nintendo said: "The new product we created together with the Lego Group seeks to combine two different styles of play – one where you freely build the world of Mario and the other where you play with Mario in the very world that you have created."

The new LEGO Super Mario sets will go on sale later this year. Here's hoping more Nintendo first-party franchises get the brick and click treatment including The Legend of Zelda and Animal Crossing.

"It's-a me, LEGO Mario!"

As the fandom menace continues to divide Doctor Who, Star Trek and Star Wars fans, there may be an unwitting hero to unite the geek community in these troubling times.

Nintendo has used Mar10 Day (get it?) to announce a new licensing deal with the beloved brick building company. Looks like LEGO sets are on the way, but there's no official confirmation. Stay tuned for more news on this exciting development.
