The Landing’s Papi’s Pizza hosts Mario Kart game night - WANE

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) — A recent addition to The Landing continued efforts to be involved with the community by hosting another video game night.

Papi’s Pizza, which opened in fall 2023, hosted a “mini tournament” featuring Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a popular racing game on the Nintendo Switch.

Guests at Papi’s Pizza race around Cheep Cheep Beach during a game of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on the Nintendo Switch. Wednesday’s tournament marked the second game night Papi’s Pizza has hosted.

“Mario Kart was a fan favorite,” said Papi’s Pizza Owner Johnny Perez. “I think a lot of different people can play that game.”

Wednesday’s tournament marked the second game night Papi’s Pizza has hosted after the restaurant initially hosted a game night featuring Super Smash Bros., a crossover fighting game series.

Perez hopes to continue hosting game nights in order to engage with the community in different ways.

“To activate this space for a downtown restaurant in a unique way, [it] has been good to see that people are receptive to it,” Perez said. “I think a lot of operations can get a little more creative on how to bring people out.”

Perez told WANE 15 he only expected a few people to come to Wednesday’s game night, but he said a good combination of gamers and families visited the restaurant to play Mario Kart.
