Nintendo celebrates Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door with a free paper plane

To celebrate the launch of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door on Switch last week, Nintendo called on “paper plane guy,” expert and former world record holder John Collins to teach Mario fans how to build a paper airplane.

All you have to do is download and print it free paper airplane templates then follow John’s steps above to create the ultimate glider.

“Former world record holder and paper airplane expert John “The Paper Airplane Guy” Collins has teamed up with Nintendo to create a special Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door-themed paper airplane, complete with step-by-step video instructions on how to make your own.”

This paper airplane, in case you missed it, was inspired by one of Mario’s paper transformations in The Thousand-Year Door.

Additionally, the Switch version features “upgraded visuals, new features, and a completely reworked score.” You can learn more about this Switch release in our review here on Nintendo Life:
