Nintendo Turns Mario Into Wooden Blocks With a Playful App Twist
Nintendo is debuting My Mario wooden block sets (30-piece for $150 or 3-piece for $30) that are Amiibo-compatible for Switch games, along with a free Hello, Mario app for Android and iPadOS that lets kids poke and spin a squashable Mario head and add effects. The line also includes Mario-themed rattles and blankets, and the toys are designed to be age-appropriate while encouraging use with existing Switch titles. The products arrive in the US and Europe starting February 19, 2026, with in-store availability in Nintendo’s physical stores (online availability unclear).
