By tracking his routes around Paris, Lazert has previously etched out images of the Eiffel Tower and an outline of France, but, for a MAR10 Day special, he decided to focus on something a little more gamey.By walking 50km on Sunday 9th March and biking a further 60km on MAR10, Lazert was able to map out a giant image of Mario's face when the route is viewed in Strava. Racking up 110km in a little over 10 and a half hours sure is on the longer side of a weekend stroll, but that end result is quite the view.Nintendeal shared the final route on BlueSky and our legs are aching at the mere thought of trying it ourselves:A Nintendo fan and "GPS drawing specialist" walked 31 miles and biked 37 miles to draw Mario's head across the city of Paris(Artist: Guillaume Lazert; source in French) Nintendeal (@nintendeal.com) 2025-03-10T20:15:51.573Z"My very first video game was Super Mario 64, on the Nintendo 64," Lazert told French outlet Le Figaro (via Google Translate), "It brought back a lot of memories during these 110 km! I would never have thought that one day I would trace him in the streets of Paris, this time, it was him who played with me and not the other way around!"Nintendo kicked off yesterday's MAR10 Day with a free Super Mario Bros. Alarmo update and a handful of discounts on the Switch eShop. We also got our first proper look at the upcoming 18+ Mario Kart LEGO, which is now available to pre-order.
