With MAR10 Day taking place this weekend, Joburgers have a very special opportunity to celebrate the day by playing games and maybe even winning a Nintendo Switch OLED console. This is thanks to Sandton City and the Nintendo Store Sandton City who are running a cool competition.
You’ll want to head to Sandton City on Saturday 9 March or Sunday 10 March to find Mario and snap a photo with the mascot. Upload your picture to social media with the hashtag #MAR10DAY_ZA and tag @NintendoSADistributor and @SandtonCityMall. Mario will also give you a form to take with you to the Nintendo Store in Sandton City.
Visit the store and complete a lap of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe while playing as Mario himself. Once done, the store will provide a completed form for you to drop into the entry bin located in the store. If you choose to opt-in to the Nintendo Newsletter, you’ll get an extra entry into the giveaway.
Of course, while you’re at the Nintendo Store be sure to check out all the items on sale during the MAR10 Day campaign. You can pick up a Nintendo Switch OLED Mario Red console for R7,999. There are also various games on sale including Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and more. Check out the full list of sales items in our previous article here.
