Starting today, fans across the U.S., Canada and parts of Latin America can pick up a new range of Nintendo-themed toys from their local Burger King.
The toys will come bundled with King Jr Meals at participating restaurants and include toys inspired by a variety of Switch games. There are six toys to discover in total, based on Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Luigi’s Mansion 3, Super Mario Maker 2, The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening and Splatoon 2, and the promotion runs up until 15th March.
There's more fun to be had, too, as Burger King is celebrating the upcoming release of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury by kicking off a competition. If you purchase a 'Super Mario Meal' on the BK Mobile App or online at BK.com between the 8th and 22nd of February, you’ll be entered in for a chance to win a Nintendo Switch Prize Pack, which includes a Nintendo Switch system and a copy of the new game.
Even if you don't win, the meal sounds worth the trouble as it includes a Whopper sandwich, small fries, small fountain drink and 100 My Nintendo Platinum Points. Tasty.

Damn, not in Britain? I really want the Mario Maker one!
anyone still remember that Mario Kart Super Circuit toy from Wendy's that looked like the cover of a GBA box
Hmm...not quite worth the long drive out to the Burger King. For the best, really lol
Looks like a load of tat.
Ok l'm going there today and try to get metal mario because l have a great idea custom for him.
They all look like garbage the best looking ones are Luigis Mansion, Mario Maker, and Mario Kart ones tho
@DockEllisD do they allow that like McDonalds because l wasn't sure.
These days I'm really not impressed, but I was a 6 then I would probably love this!
...I miss having low standards
Is a "Super Mario Meal" a kid sized meal? Because if they'll put a regular sized adult whopper in there, I'll do it for the My Nintendo points
Plastic fantastic
USA POG CHAMP
What about mexico?
(Don't look that good TBH)
You pay the same price either way, but yes, Burger King is happy to not give you the food you paid for and just give you the trinket.
Really interesting it's more than just one franchise, rather than just Mario as usual. Says a lot for how far Nintendo's IP is really going when Splatoon is getting a fast food toy
@Dinklebot Yeah saw Peeb's video on it
Does it work when you a coupon for a free Whopper sandwich?
Yep I know where I will be taking my kids next!
This is the trashiest thing Nintendo has done. Why attach your good name to a company that pushes harmful food to innocent children?
@TheWingedAvenger : Um... Nintendo has been doing this for years. They have also had similar promotions with McDonald's in the past, which is arguably the worst of the lot.
And I'm not defending these crappy corporations, but parents are the ones who should be exercising discretion. We also ought to be supporting local businesses during these trying times, but it's ultimately the multinational scumbags that are laughing it up to the bank.
@DockEllisD ah ok. let me know when you do try!
@TheWingedAvenger well children shouldn’t be eating McDonald’s on a regular basis, let alone any other fast food places
My local burger king doesn’t give out toys with the kids meals. All they serve up is terrible food, tears, and infinite sadness.
Oh good, was hoping to gain 25 pounds this month.
@Dinklebot I remember them.
@Clyde_Radcliffe message me. I'll go check Burger King and if I can get one, I can mail to you. Just pay the shipping. I live in Florida, USA.
@EriXz same as above.
My kid saw this and asked me to get BK tonight. I obliged and he ended up with a Croods toy because they didn’t have any Nintendo ones and had absolutely no idea what I was talking about when I asked.
Burger King always has these fun promotions. I still remember when they did a Lord of the Rings promo which included tons of action figures and the golden ring!
@SkullDragr Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I can't seem to find a way to message you on here though, unless I'm missing it.
The Mario Maker one seems to be the best, but overall not the best ones.
I live right next to a Burger King so this works out for me. I legit just have to walk across the street haha
This would be the only reason I would ever go to burger king.
