The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has officially ascended to the number one spot in the global box office. Nintendo’s animated powerhouse has achieved a massive milestone, securing its position as the top-performing film of the year.
The Rise of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
The film has now grossed an incredible $752 million globally. This impressive figure allows it to overtake the previous leader, Pegasus 3, which reached a total of $641 million.
While Pegasus 3 saw significant success following its February release in China, much of its revenue was concentrated in a single region. In fact, the Chinese production earned 99.8% of its total earnings from the Chinese market, with only $1.37 million generated in the US.
Global Market Dominance
In contrast, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has proven to be a massive hit across diverse international territories. The film's performance is anchored by a massive $358.7 million haul from North America alone.
Beyond North America, the movie has seen significant financial success in several key regions:
- Mexico: $49.6 million
- United Kingdom: $38 million
- Germany: $30 million
- Spain: $17.4 million
- France: $12.7 million
This widespread appeal solidifies The Super Mario Galaxy Movie as a true global phenomenon, proving that Nintendo's reach extends far beyond its traditional fanbases.
