Nintendo is preparing for one of their annual celebrations tomorrow, as they revealed their plans to celebrate all things Mario on Mar10 Day 2024. If you're not familiar with the concept, March 10 (Mar 10) is basically an unofficial Nintendo holiday where they usually throw a celebration or two for the franchise that catapulted them into pop culture status and success for decades. We have the full rundown of everything they have planned for tomorrow, or at least the stuff they're letting us know about, as we're sure there's an announcement or two on the way. (Like how they promoted LEGO Mario Kart on social media this morning.)
