==Illustrations on the cards==
In the Mario Hanafuda deck, all of the cards' traditional illustrations have been modified with elements from the ''Mario'' universe. Furthermore, a close inspection of the illustration reveals that a new printing method has been used with respect to the one used in the [[Club Nintendo Hanafuda]]. Another important aspect is that now the months follow a theme:

*January is dedicated to the ''[[Yoshi's Island (series)|Yoshi's Island]]'' series.
*February is dedicated to the present time [[Yoshi]].
*March is dedicated to main female characters in the ''Mario'' universe.
*April is dedicated to the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' series.
*May features underwater-themed illustrations.
*June is dedicated to ''[[Super Mario World]]''.
*July is dedicated to ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''.
*August is dedicated to ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''.
*September is dedicated to the [[Koopa Troop]].
*October is dedicated to ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''.
*November is dedicated to ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
*December is dedicated to [[Bowser]], [[Bowser Jr.]], and the [[Koopalings]].
