The film, which draws on Nintendo's Mario franchise, has already been made available for purchase through major retailers in physical and digital formats, with 4K Blu-ray editions listed alongside standard releases.
Background and context
Nintendo owns the Mario intellectual property and has previously partnered with outside studios on screen adaptations of its franchises; notably the company collaborated with Illumination on The Super Mario Bros.
Movie in 2023.
UPI reports that the Super Mario Galaxy Movie performed strongly at the box office earlier this year and reached global grosses in excess of $1 billion, and distributors have continued rolling out home-video and streaming windows following its theatrical run.
Streaming release and availability
UPI's coverage confirms Peacock will begin streaming the Super Mario Galaxy Movie on July 30, 2026.
In addition to the Peacock debut, the title remains available for purchase from a number of retailers in physical formats (including 4K Blu-ray) and through digital storefronts.
Fans who prefer owning the film can still find 4K and standard-definition Blu-ray editions at national retailers and online marketplaces.
Critical reception (rewritten quote)
In our review, we observed that while the Super Mario Galaxy Movie may not be positioned to win awards for its writing, it succeeds as an action-driven family film.
As a kids’ movie and a broadly entertaining action picture, it delivers on spectacle and accessibility for younger viewers.
What this means for viewers and Nintendo fans
For Nintendo fans who follow the company’s broader media strategy, the Peacock release represents the typical post-theatrical lifecycle that major studio properties follow: theatrical run, physical and digital purchase windows, then streaming availability.
While Nintendo promotes gaming-related announcements through channels such as Nintendo Direct and the eShop, film releases continue to move through traditional studio and streaming distribution pipelines.
