Nintendo 2026 Calendar & Planner Preorders - Metroid Prime, Zelda, And More
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is planned to launch on Nintendo Switch sometime this year, but Nintendo is already prepping for next year with a new Metroid 2026 Wall Calendar. The $16 calendar is a piece of official Nintendo merch and will launch on July 15 alongside several other themes based on popular franchises. The cover art for next year's Metroid calendar matches the edition from 2021, which appears to be the most recent Metroid edition.
Metroid Prime 2026 Wall Calendar
$16 | Releases July 15
The official Metroid 2026 Wall Calendar--and the other full-size Nintendo wall calendars--measure 12 inches by 24 inches when unfolded and is printed on FSC-certified paper with soy-based ink. It covers January to December 2026 in a standard daily grid format like you find on most other wall calendars, and each day offers space for writing notes, appointments, and reminders. There are also labels for official major world holidays and observances, as well as moon phases based on Universal Time. The top half of each month features art and renders from Nintendo franchises, but it's unclear if the Metroid calendar will come with any Prime 4 art.
While the main part of the Nintendo calendars is for 2026, you won't have to wait until next year to use it, as it includes a planning spread section for September to December 2025 that you can use to organize the last few months of this year.
Outside of the Metroid calendar, Amazon is taking preorders for 2026 wall calendars based on Super Mario, Donkey Kong, Pokemon, and more. There's a modern Super Mario edition featuring 3D character art as well as an 8-bit edition from the plumber's days spent hopping through stages on the NES. The Super Mario Bros. 8-Bit Retro 2026 Wall Calendar includes six die-cut notecards that can be folded to create 3D models of enemies from the original NES game: Blooper, Lakitu, Cheep Cheep, Hammer Bros., Spiny, and Buzzy Beetle.
Multiple Pokemon calendars are up for preorder, including mini and full-size wall calendars as well as the Pokemon Day-to-Day 2026 Calendar. This $18 desktop calendar features art from the Pokemon Horizons anime.
With the exception of the Pikmin edition, which releases August 19, all of the 2026 Nintendo calendars release July 15.
