Ocho is a recurring character that appears as an 8-bit alien, and is used for many references to ''Super Mario'' and other video game franchises. As an example, in "The Tape", Ocho hits a gigantic, yellow block similar to a [[? Block]] to get cash for a vending machine. During gym class, he also uses a cheat which gives him a rainbow appearance and speeds him up, similar to [[Invincible Mario]], as he knocks over various other characters.

The premise of the later episode "The Uncle" is that Ocho has an uncle called Mario who has a [[Mario Kart (series)|go-kart]], is scared of [[Boo|ghosts]] and likes [[Yoshi (species)|dinosaurs]], stars and princesses; Gumball takes this to mean that his uncle is the same Mario from the video games; in his excitement, he goes around Elmore jumping over people's heads and entering pipes, with similar melodies such as one close to the Level Clear theme from ''Super Mario Bros.'' playing, and even repeating Mario's catchphrases (e.g. "Yahoo!" and "Let's-a go!"). Later, Ocho's Uncle Mario actually appears playing [[Mario Golf (series)|golf]] with Ocho, wearing an outfit similar to the actual Mario and a vaguely similar saying to his catchphrase ("Hey, it's me, Mario" instead of "It's a-me, Mario!").

In the episode, "Super Angry Bros.", Red appears from a wooden structure shaped like a [[Warp Pipe]]. He then stomps on a Minion Pig similarly to how Mario stomps on [[Goomba]]s. He then finds a box that acts like a [[? Block]], with Bomb acting as a [[Fire Flower]], where he lands on top of Red and spits fire at a stack of three Minion Pigs, similarly to how [[Fire Mario]] throws fireballs at his enemies. After jumping into two [[Pit|pits]], Red and Bomb bash a plank that acts like a [[Coin Block]]. They then look at an onscreen timer and realize they have eighteen seconds left and encounter a large amount of Minion Pigs, with some of them being gold. Chuck then speeds in to help the two birds finish the course to knock down all the surrounding pigs and reach the [[Goal Pole]] with one second left. The course turns out to actually be an act created by Foreman Pig, who intended to lock the birds in a cage. When Foreman Pig shows the birds that they were supposed to be captured, Red, Chuck and Bomb nervously leave to start the course again.

After the Yorozuya and hunter Morinosuke realize that they have been infected with parasitic mushrooms on their heads, Gintoki Sakata suddenly appears in [[Mario]]'s outfit from ''[[Mario Bros.

Kagura then jumps in with the same pose and [[Luigi]]'s mustache, green overalls and cap, and a red shirt. She says that if all goes well, they may all end up in the next ''Mario'' game. Gintoki then exclaims, "Mamma mia!" as Shinpachi Shimura yells the two off, reverting their outfits back to normal in the next shot.

*In one skit, "Kirby's Secret Problem", Yoshi is talking with [[Kirby]] on the phone. Yoshi said he "was a pig" on this day and ate about 50 pieces of fruit. Kirby brags that he literally inhaled 20 enemies, and said he was glad that he exhaled most of them. A shocked Yoshi asked if Kirby was still doing that (Kirby promised he would not "binge and purge" anymore), but then Kirby hangs up, saying he "does not need that noise" and then suddenly vomits out a Waddle Dee, who says "Hey, it's none of my business, but, you have a problem."

*There was a Nintendo E3 event skit that starred Mario, Wario, Peach, Bowser, [[Ganondorf]], [[Fox|Fox McCloud]], [[Link]], Toon Link, and [[Little Mac]]. Mario walked out of the event, while Bowser was trying to apologize to Peach for abducting her too many times. Mario later came back to help [[Reggie Fils-Aimé]] fight off the villains. In that same skit, Reggie also uses a [[Fire Flower]], which turns his clothes red and white.

*Another skit parodies the ''Mario Kart'' series again, this time by having Mario give a girl a driving exam by having her partake in a [[Battle Mode#Balloon Battle|Balloon Battle]] against Toad, Donkey Kong, and Bowser. While she succeeds in defeating all three using various items from the series, such as a [[Banana|Banana Peel]] and a [[Super Star]], she is forced to start over due to not activating her turn signal while taking a left turn. Mario tells her to "press Start to try again". The "Start" button is on his groin, to the student's disgust.
