If the Castle level of Super Mario Bros. sounded like this I might not mute my TV whenever I reached this point in the game. Something about the original castle theme just irritated the hell out of me. That’s probably why it never reached the same iconic level as the other levels themes.
Props to the band Nylithia for the awesome death metal rendition. We really need a mod for this, so developers, get on it.
This might just be Mario and Luigi’s attempt to get their name in the papers only days before the release of the new Super Mario Bros. Wii game, but apparently the two plumbers were spotted assaulting a NYC cab driver.
Don’t get too discouraged quite yet, your two favorite plumbers still might have a chance. Number one, the attack was on Halloween, so it might not be the REAL Mario and Luigi, but perhaps the work of two impostors. The fact that it happened in 4D also lends credibility to a fake. A third man, who was wearing a tuxedo, is also being sought. No mention of if they were packing mushrooms at the time of the incident.
We’ve seen Mario’s henchmen in LEGO form before, but never have we seen the man himself quite like this. Weighing in at a massive 110 pounds and standing 5 feet 9 inches tall, this life sized Mario model is completely structured, modeled and built using over 40,000 LEGO bricks. The pictures do all the talking here.
Built specifically for the Netherlands’ Game Mania by Dirk VH, the result of this massive undertaking is to be sold on eBay, with all proceeds heading off to charity, most likely to aid starving plumbers.
A man of many identities, Lincoln was ashamed to showcase his geeky side, even if that geekiness happened to be a century ahead of his time.
Let’s thank Secretary of the Treasury Joe D! for providing us with this excellent rendition of the greatest president ever.
I’m sure it’s a question that’s been on your mind for at least a decade. What does the most popular plumber in the world look like naked?
Sort of like your dad, shaved of all his hair, mixed with a newborn baby. Yeah… creepy as hell.
You can’t resist Mario’s balls. Feel the sweetness roll across your tongue. Oh yeah, that makes me so hot. Wait… what?
These awesome Mario truffle balls each feature a different element of the game. And each is om nom-tastic.
Do you have the crocheting skills that pay the bills? Alright, maybe they don’t pay the bills, unless you mass produce on Etsy or something, but can you at least follow some simple instructions?
Head over to the Craftster forums so you can learn how to craft your very own Piranha Plant Scarf. These beauties aren’t officially for sale yet, but if you’re not into crafting yourself, the creator of this project takes custom orders over on her Etsy page.
So, we get it. You can be a huge Mario fan. That’s cool. I totally get it. I have the dude tattooed on my skin for Christ’s sake. But this cake oozes of obsessive awesomeness.
Each tier is meticulously connected by even more Mario goodness, physically attached by Super Mario pipes and topped with a Mario and Peaches topper. From top to bottom, this cake is where it’s at.
I don’t know about where you’re from, how could I? But I do know that in these parts, winter means frigid temperatures. Jersey gets the best (and worst) of both worlds. Extreme heat and intense cold.
The heat part is easy, all I have to do is walk around naked. It’s the chilliness that starts getting tricky. Out come the layers and bye-bye goes the skin. Unfortunately for Grandma, I have a new pattern I’m going to physically force her to knit. These Mario Mushroom Wrist Warmers will keep me and my family’s wrists warm this season, all cozy under our Mario hoodies. Even if my wrists get more activity than they should, they still get frigid in the chilly Jersey winter.
One of the best things about this time of the season is that we get to whip out our stylish hoodies, especially over here in Jersey where the smog blocks out the sun. We’ve seen a fair share of cool hoodies in our day, but none that explore the majesty of Super Mario.
I’m pretty sure it’s a law that every geek needs an outfit for every season consisting entirely of Mario gear. So I really don’t have much of a choice but to whip out the $48 for one of these. There should really be some sort of government-ran financial aid program for Mario gear, especially if they are going to force it on us. Damn socialists.
