It’s that time again for a new, weekly Super Mario Bros. 35 Special Battle! theme, and yet, this week we’re getting even more Super Mario Bros. 35 news. First, though, let’s hop down a warp pipe to the most pressing issue.

Will you sink towards the bottom or swim to claim the #1 spot? You’ll only have a few days to find out!
As for the previously announced World Count Challenge, Nintendo has announced when the second event will begin! Similar to the first one, this week-long event starts on Monday, February 22nd, at 11 p.m. PT and ends on Monday, March 1st, at 10:59 p.m. PT. As for the goal, it’s a doozy. Get ready to stomp some Goombas, as we’ll need to work together and crush 350 million of them to complete the challenge!
The second #SuperMarioBros35 World Count Challenge is on the horizon, live from 2/22 11pm PT to 3/1 10:59pm PT!

Even if you manage to knock out one Goomba during the event, you’ll get 350 Platinum Points. Hopefully, next week’s Special Battle! theme will be bursting with Goombas so we can crush that 350 million requirement!
