Nintendo Switch de Asoberu Mario no Game o Taiken Shiyō!, or Nintendo Switch de Asoberu Mario! Taiken-kai Kaisai, is a series of events organized by Nintendo at shopping malls in Japan in 2023 and 2024. It consists in kiosks in which groups of two or more people can "compete" in selected portions of games in the Super Mario franchise on the Nintendo Switch.[1] The first of these events took place in 2023 at four locations with movie theaters in conjunction with the release of The Super Mario Bros. Movie.[1] The games featured were a race in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, levels in Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, and a Coin Battle in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, respectively.[1][2] Each participant received an original postcard for playing.[1] The locations were the following:[1]
- April 29 from 11:00 to 17:00 JST at Ario Kameari (Tokyo)
- April 29–30 from 11:00 to 17:00 JST at Seven Park Amami (Osaka Prefecture)
- May 3–4 from 10:00 to 17:00 JST at Aeon Mall Makuhari New City (Chiba Prefecture)
- May 3–5 from 11:00 to 17:00 JST at Aeon Mall Kyoto Katsuragawa (Kyoto Prefecture)
The event was later rerun in 2024. On July 20 and 21, 2024, the event was organized at Aeon Mall Kashihara, this time featuring a time attack in Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition and a Wiggler Race in Super Mario Bros. Wonder as the last two games.[3] It later took place on July 27 and 28, 2024 at Ario Kameari with the same games as the Aeon Mall Kashihara event.[4] A 4 m (~13 ft)-tall balloon of Elephant Mario was also present at these last two events.[3][4] On November 23 and 24, 2024, it was organized again at Aeon Mall Kyoto Katsuragawa.[5] The lineup of games this time consisted in a race in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a Wiggler Race in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and a minigame in Super Mario Party Jamboree, respectively.[5]
