The packaging of the Action Replay DSi depicts numerous video game characters, including an altered version of [[Bowser]]'s ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' artwork that makes him primarily green and olive yellow, with a red shell lacking spikes, light-brown eyes and hair, a different hairstyle, downward-curling horns, and silver bracers inlaid with red gems. | The packaging of the Action Replay DSi depicts numerous video game characters, including an altered version of [[Bowser]]'s ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' artwork that makes him primarily green and olive yellow, with a red shell lacking spikes, light-brown eyes and hair, a different hairstyle, downward-curling horns, and silver bracers inlaid with red gems. | ||

Mario appears in a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uDQ8mTYUHQ Got Milk? commercial]. In the commercial, two | Mario appears in a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uDQ8mTYUHQ Got Milk? commercial]. In the commercial, two kids are playing ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and trying but failing to jump across a set of blocks from the level [[Wet-Dry World]]. After the kids leave, Mario then jumps out of the television screen and interacts with various objects in the house (including a soccer ball and a green object of some sort) before being flung by a skateboard inside the house's refrigerator, where he drinks a large swig of milk, causing him to power up and grow a considerable amount in size. Mario then leaves the refrigerator and jumps all the way back into the game, where he is much larger thanks to the calcium-filled milk helping his bones grow and is shown to be able to easily climb the set of blocks like stairs. | ||
Despite showing gameplay of ''Super Mario 64'', the commercial does not use actual in-game footage, as evident by the smoothness of Mario's model and the animation of Mario hitting the wall (which is not an animation that is present in the actual game). The music is also not actual music from the game, possibly due to copyright-related reasons. | Despite showing gameplay of ''Super Mario 64'', the commercial does not use actual in-game footage, as evident by the smoothness of Mario's model and the animation of Mario hitting the wall (which is not an animation that is present in the actual game).

An anti-drug commercial featuring [[Lou Albano]], which aired on Philadelphia's [[wikipedia:WPSG|WPSG]], showed him wearing [[Mario]]'s cap, although the rest of his outfit was different and he introduced himself as "Captain Lou Albano". | An anti-drug commercial featuring [[Lou Albano]], which aired on Philadelphia's [[wikipedia:WPSG|WPSG]], showed him wearing [[Mario]]'s cap, although the rest of his outfit was different and he introduced himself as "Captain Lou Albano". The commercial has since become infamous for a particular line where Albano tells the viewers that they will "go to {{wp|hell}} before they die", potentially as a form of a scare tactic at the time it aired.<ref>"HKD2".

One year later<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlulSyBI2aY "Blast Processing! (Sega Genesis Commercial)" on YouTube]</ref>, Sega would make a now-infamous commercial boasting that the Genesis had "blast processing", whereas the SNES didn't. As a show of what blast processing supposedly did, a drag racer with a TV screen strapped to it raced down a drag strip; the TV didn't show any footage, but scenes from various Sega games, including the then-new ''[[wikipedia:Sonic the Hedgehog 2|Sonic 2]]'', were shown as the car drove past. As a show of what happened if one did not have blast processing, a beat-up minivan, also with a TV strapped to it, barely put down the same track; the TV showed ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. | One year later<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlulSyBI2aY "Blast Processing!

Featuring graphics that are based on those of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', the video shows Mário coming out of a [[Warp Pipe]] and hitting a [[? Block]], with a soccer ball appearing and bouncing away. A hashtag then appears, designed to look like ''Super Mario Bros.''{{'}}s title screen, and Mário then runs off after the soccer ball. The sprite used for Mário, however, resembles [[Mega Man]]'s classic sprite more so than [[Mario]]'s. | To celebrate football player {{wp|João Mário (footballer, born January 1993)|João Mário}} being loaned to West Ham United F.C., a short promotional video was released concurrently on [https://www.facebook.com/westhamunited/videos/1826051357428072/ Facebook], [https://twitter.com/WestHamUtd/status/956919688226729984 Twitter], and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7A2-fNQy1E YouTube].
