Nintendo Launches 'My Mario' Video Series in Japan with Three Debut Episodes

Nintendo has officially debuted the 'My Mario' video series on its Japanese YouTube channel, delivering the first three episodes for fans to enjoy.

This new initiative from Nintendo brings short, visually engaging action videos that showcase Mario in charming, playful scenarios—including moments such as Mario combing his signature mustache and skillfully kicking a Koopa shell. The 'My Mario' series is designed to be accessible to viewers of all ages, even as young as infants, with wordless, visually driven storytelling.

Despite the series' straightforward and whimsical content, the appeal extends far beyond its youngest intended audience, offering moments of classic Nintendo humor and animation that will resonate with longtime Nintendo and Super Mario enthusiasts. In a translated statement accompanying the launch, Nintendo explained that the videos are crafted for enjoyment by a wide range of viewers: "These episodes are intended to be universally appreciated, regardless of age, and offer playful insights into Mario’s daily antics." By leveraging the enduring popularity of their flagship character, Nintendo aims to reinforce its connection with both dedicated fans and the next generation of players. Since its inception in 1985, the Super Mario franchise has become synonymous with gaming excellence, accumulating over 380 million copies sold worldwide across Nintendo platforms such as the Nintendo Switch, Wii, and classic consoles.

The addition of the 'My Mario' series to YouTube complements Nintendo’s strategy of expanding the Super Mario brand through various media, following the ongoing success of the franchise in video games, animated content, and merchandise. The initial three episodes are now available to stream exclusively on Nintendo’s official Japanese YouTube channel.

Although the 'My Mario' series is currently exclusive to the Japanese audience, its global appeal has sparked anticipation among international fans for potential broader release.

The videos’ universal, language-free format ensures that Mario’s charm and signature humor can be enjoyed by viewers around the world. Nintendo continues to innovate in both gaming and digital content, strengthening the Super Mario legacy while embracing new platforms like YouTube to reach audiences both old and new.
