It’s similar to Morgan Avec.

EDIT:
They might have used small caps of Morgan Avec Bold.

Apart from the fact that it isn’t bold enough and the little serif on the baseline stroke of the 2 is missing in Morgan Avec, it is incredibly close.

Hi Yves,
I don’t think it is bold enough, too. But, about the 2, the newer version has the 2 like that. Several characters, e.g. the 2 or the G, seem to have been changed.

Oh! Didn’t know that. Maybe it’s a weight that still has to be released publicly, or a custom weight by Mario for the event?

The unrivaled Akira strikes again!

Thank you, Florian. ;^)
I seem to have found the answer.

Dude, I tell ya, some nights I wake up bathing in cold sweat. Akira is freaky scary good. :^/
