..but who is this guy? It`s no less than one of the most popular videogame
characters - Super Mario or also known as Mario.
Even though this dude is surely an italian plumber/janitor (if you can`t
tell by his costume and accent, then I don`t know..), he actually was
brought to life by Japanese.
The history of the first actual arcade game of Mario Bros. goes back to
1983. The classic Super Mario games were created in a 2djump'n'run style
and were known also as "Super Mario Bros." and "Super Mario World".
Important Characters like Yoshi, Mario's brother Luigi,
the probably immortal villain Bowser and of course the often
played victim of Bowser's power games, Princess Peach who rules
over Mushroom Kingdom, were introduced into the games time by time. Not to
forget the helping little mushroom dude called Toad or side
characters like grumpy Wario, his friend Waluigi (some
even say they are lovers), the hero of Donkey Kong-Island, a gorilla named
Donkey Kong or the over Sarasaland ruling
Princess Daisy.
With a few exceptions through collaborations, Mario only appears in games
for Nintendo game consoles. It is said that Mario is the most successful
game series ever with over 295 million Mario games sold. Mario is even
considered the most famous video game character in the world. The
fascination over Mario is probably his likeable characteristics like his
height and typical sayings like " Mamma mia ”and“ It's-a-me, Mario
”are.
Nowadays.. Even a whole Wiki World about Mario exists.
