Surprise for owners of Nintendo Switch and news Nintendo Switch 2 : Nintendo slips a gift Super Mario almost free in the My Nintendo ecosystem. No need to buy a new game or search the Nintendo eShop for hours, this bonus comes right when Mario Tennis Fever has just landed on Switch 2.
This is an official physical goodie, designed to accompany the release of the game and reserved for members My Nintendo. Collector’s bracelet, Platinum points, limited stocks: before rushing, it’s better to know exactly what Nintendo is offering and how to take advantage of it without missing the firing window.
What is this Super Mario gift offered on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2?
Nintendo highlights Mario Tennis Fevernew episode of the sports series launched in February on Nintendo Switch 2with an exclusive wrist bracelet. This goodie is a physical My Nintendo reward, directly linked to the game universe and its very marked Super Mario color codes.
Concretely, the bracelet displays the logo Mario Tennis Fever and takes up the flashy colors of the title. On the manufacturing side, Nintendo did not settle for a piece of plastic: the bracelet is made of 84% cotton, 14% polyester and 3% elastic. It measures approximately 3″ x 3″, or 7.6 x 7.6 cm, a classic wrist band size, usable in sports as a light cosplay accessory or simply as a collector’s item.
How to get the Mario Tennis Fever bracelet via My Nintendo?
The bracelet is exchangeable for 600 My Nintendo Platinum points. For many regular players, this amount remains accessible: Platinum points are earned by completing missions on the My Nintendo site, using mobile games like Super Mario Runor via certain activities linked to Nintendo Switch Online and at Nintendo eShop.
Once the threshold is reached, the procedure is simple: you go to the reward page in the My Nintendo section, you choose to redeem 600 Platinum points, then you switch to the My Nintendo Store to finalize the order. The bracelet is displayed at 0.00 in product price, but shipping costs remain to be paid. In Europe, comparable Mario goodies, such as a set of three posters Super Mario 3D All-Starsfor example required 300 Platinum points and €6.99 delivery costs.
This type of official derivative product is generally found for around ten euros in specialized stores, which makes the exchange for Platinum points plus shipping reasonably interesting for fans of Super Mario.
Until when does Nintendo leave these almost free Mario goodies available?
As always with physical My Nintendo rewards, the bracelet Mario Tennis Fever is offered “while stocks last”. Previous Super Mario gifts have often disappeared within a few days, sometimes weeks, before possible restockings which are never guaranteed.
If the bracelet already shows full when you log in, all is not lost. Nintendo regularly renews its My Nintendo catalog with other goodies Super Mario (stickers, posters, sometimes pins) and digital rewards such as profile icons linked to Switch and Switch 2 games. Keeping a small pile of Platinum points, consulting My Nintendo once a week and monitoring announcements around Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 remain the best reflexes to never miss the next almost free Mario gift.
