Nintendo recently presented new application Hello, Mario!, designed for kids and available for free on iOS devices, Android and Nintendo Switch, as part of a new line of products called My Mario. The application exits August 26, 2025. in Japan, while wider international availability is planned for 2026.
What does the app offer?
Hello, Mario! allows the youngest to react interactively with Mario's face, pulling his mustache, rotating his head or tapping it - and Mario reacts in funny and unexpected ways. Notable inspiration comes from the game's legendary menu Super Mario 64.
