2025 marks the 40th anniversary of the Super Mario series – which is crazy, because it feels like only yesterday that we celebrated its 35th anniversary with Super Mario 3D All-Stars and Super Mario Bros. 35. This year, however, is different. Though it still hasn’t been announced at the time of writing, Nintendo has new hardware releasing this year, which makes speculation a bit complicated. Will the company release a new 3D Mario game and tie it to the anniversary? Will Nintendo just release more remakes on the existing Switch? Who knows, but today we’re looking at all of the Super Mario anniversary celebrations throughout the years and what we might expect later this year.

Star of Providence, the second game to be published by Bigmode following Animal Well last year, just earned its release date. The company is putting it out for Nintendo Switch on February 20, 2025.

To recap the game, check out the following overview:
According to Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii, Square Enix gave consideration to a Dragon Quest 3 remake in 3D.
Towards the end of last year, Square Enix ended up releasing a new version of the classic RPG in HD-2D. Horii said this was the best call as going the 3D route “significantly changes the feeling of the game”.

A company reaching its 100th anniversary is a massive milestone, but it turns out that day came and went without much fanfare within Nintendo.
Takaya Imamura, who is known for his work on the character designs for games such as Star Fox and F-Zero, revealed that Nintendo never actually celebrated that anniversary. It seems this was largely due to former president Hiroshi Yamauchi. Yamauchi had a certain mindset and believed in particular philosophies, so the 100th anniversary was treated just like any other day.
Inti Creates came out with the latest update for Card-en-Ciel this week, moving the title up to version 1.3.0.
MOD Database is now avaialble as a new feature. Players can also access new content with the latest Extra Dungeons and Parallel Cards.
