I'm assuming 3D Mario will be announced Holiday 2025 with a 2026 release due to the fact that the next movie just got announced a moment ago to be released next year.

Yeah I don’t get why people think we are getting or need a new 3D Mario this year, in a ~6 month period Switch 2 is getting:

Major Exclusives-Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza

Major cross gen titles-Metroid Prime 4, Pokemon Legends ZA

Medium tier exclusives-Hyrule Warriors, Kirby Air Riders

Ports with added content-Mario Party Jamboree, Kirby Forgotten Land

Basic Enhanced Ports-Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom

Small tier exclusives-Welcome Tour, Drag x Drive

There could be another surprise or two announced at their Summer Direct but this is absolutely a stacked launch year already.

It certainly wouldn’t be the first time Nintendo has waited for mainline Mario. Galaxy and 3D World were a full year after launch, and Sunshine was 9 months. So if anything, that’s more the norm than launch window is. 64 and Odyssey were more exceptions.
