"Following a successful first year partnering with one of the world's
premier entertainment brands, we knew we wanted to bring more Mario
fun to Boston Pizza guests," said James Kawalecki, Vice President
Marketing, Boston Pizza International. "As the leader of family dining
occasions, we continually seek to enhance the kids experience and this
collaboration does just that."
As an exciting new addition to the partnership this year, the Boston
Pizza kids' menu will feature a Power-Up Mushroom & Pepperoni Pizza to
help fuel kids' next adventure in the Mushroom Kingdom. Kids can also
enjoy a variety of exciting activities featuring the beloved and
iconic characters and games available on the Nintendo Switch system.
Back for another limited time, kids and families can take their fun to
the next level with Nintendo Switch Fun Sundays - an enhanced dining
experience that will be offered at select Boston Pizza locations in
big cities and small towns across British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario,
Quebec, and for the first time, in Manitoba. Every Sunday in
September, guests in the Nintendo Switch Fun Sundays reserved section
at participating restaurants have the option of ordering an extra
special menu item: a Nintendo Switch system, delivered right to their
table for families to use during their dining experience (available to
borrow with the Nintendo staff's support on a first come, first served
basis). The system will come equipped with some fan-favourite games
featuring Mario that guests can enjoy as they await their meal. Visit
BostonPizza.com in September for details about the Nintendo Switch Fun
Sundays, including locations, dates and times.
To help keep the fun going at home, Boston Pizza will give Canadians
the chance to win one of 25 prize packs each of which include a
Nintendo Switch - OLED Model system and three selected games featuring
Mario. Plus, 20 additional winners will receive Nintendo branded
merchandise valued at $250 CAD. Winners will be drawn on October 1,
2024, and must meet contest eligibility criteria.
Families can discover Mario and friends on Nintendo Switch - a
versatile video game system that can be played anytime, anywhere. The
Nintendo Switch family of systems is home to a vast library of
exclusive games from beloved franchises like _Mario Kart 8 Deluxe_,
_Mario Party Superstars,_ and _Super Mario Bros. Wonder_. For more
