We recently shared with you that Nintendo was already taking the first steps towards the “depressing” 31st of March. As you know, this day has been labelled as such because on that date many of the company’s products will be discontinued, mainly Super Mario products due to the completion of the franchise’s 35th anniversary, and sadly the day has arrived.
Well, on this occasion, Nintendo’s European Twitter account has shared a message to thank the fans for their support during the 35th anniversary of Super Mario Bros:
Thank you to everyone who joined us in commemorating the 35th anniversary of Super Mario Bros. We hope you continue to Power-Up and enjoy Mario and friends’ adventures! #SuperMario35 pic.twitter.com/TUCu2MRL9F
