Oscar also says that the "giant monkey" is only wearing a tank top, which may be a reference to [[Funky Kong]].

 

In the beginning of the episode "Doggonit", Oscar is seen playing a video game that involves a yellow character in red overalls jumping across obstacles and fending off a turtle with a saw. Oscar says the game he is playing is called "Kooky Carpenter Cousins", which is based on ''Super Mario Bros.''; the character bears a striking resemblance Mario's sprite from ''Super Mario Bros.'', and the turtle looks a lot like a [[Shellcreeper]].

It is then revealed to the audience that Fry is actually playing an ''Asteroids''-style arcade game, just as he encounters a gorilla similar to Donkey Kong, except with overalls. Although Fry attempts to blast the gorilla with lasers, the gorilla throws barrels at the spaceship, causing Fry to lose. A later shot of arcade cabinet then reveals that the game is entitled ''Monkey Fracas Jr.'', whose name is based on ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]''

A Donkey Kong-esque character appears behind a pile of crates while Fry is playing a virtual reality video game, and is subsequently blasted; additionally, Fry makes the same noise Mario does when he jumps in this episode.

Donkey Kong then stomps atop the United Nations building, slanting the ledges across the side of the building diagonally, similar to the girders in the first level of the original ''Donkey Kong'' game.

Later on in the episode, the characters exit a [[Pac-Man]]-inspired maze through a Warp Pipe.

A kid used a holophoner (an instrument that when played, creates holograms) and plays "a stranger in the night". In the hologram, a man plays a piano, and stairs appear as the man and a woman climb them; a barrel rolls down and the pair jump over it, both earning 100 points as the "jumping over a barrel" sound effect from ''Donkey Kong'' plays.

When the Planet Express ship is under attack towards the start of the episode, Fry picks up an [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] controller and exclaims, "We've lost power of the forward [[Game Boy]]! Mario not responding!" As Fry fiddles with the controller, sound effects from ''Donkey Kong'' can be heard.

At the beginning of the episode, Fry is playing a ''{{wp|Paper Boy}}''-themed video game. One of the obstacles in the game is a barrel-tossing gorilla.

The noise that occurs when the items appear is also nearly identical to the noise that occurs at the beginning of new laps in many of the games. The boxes contained green missiles that look like [[Bullet Bill]]s, but act like [[Green Shell]]s; they also contained red mines that play a similar role to [[Banana#Mario Kart series|banana]]s. At one point, Grizzy obtains a temporary shield item that grants him invincibility, similar to the [[Super Star]]. In the end of the race, both Grizzy and the Lemmings are hit by two red bullets before they get to the finish line; the red bullets are similar to the [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], and was thrown by a female bear, a recurring character that was revealed to be a third racer.

Grizzy plays a virtual reality game on a smart tablet, which uses sound effects from ''Super Mario Bros.'', namely the Mushroom sound effects and the fanfare used when Mario completes a level.

After Grizzy and the Lemmings shoot the final hoop to get the giant can of YummyXL, the container opens and plays the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' bonus ending theme.

When it enters back in the normal cartoon, Mickey throws away the coins before jumping on the Blue Train.

In "Down the Hatch", when Mickey and Goofy are being shrunk, they spin around in a manner similar to Mario's death animation from ''Donkey Kong''.

 

In "The Scariest Story Ever: A Mickey Mouse Halloween Spooktacular", Morty Fieldmouse dresses up as a Godzilla-like kaiju. His costume helps strengthen a reference to [[Yoshi]] when throws his Halloween candy in the air and catches it in his mouth with a lash of his tongue.

In "Pace Makes Waste", in certain shots within the Danville Motor Speedway arena, yellow trucks labeled "Koop's Turtle Haven" and depicted with a green turtle can be seen. They may be a reference to the similarly named Koopa Troopa turtle enemies.

Recurring antagonist Nathalie Sancoeur resembles [[Nastasia]] from ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' and acts similarly to her due to both being the assistant of their respective main antagonists.

 

The game ''Super Penguino'', which is a parody of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', is a recurring game that appears in a couple of episodes.

Throughout the entire episode, the babies play several "Pretendo" video games, and imagine themselves as characters in them. During the first part of the episode, Gonzo pretends to be "Super Bario Weirdo" in a ''Donkey Kong''-style game, which has a dragon named King Copacabana in place of Cranky Kong throwing green balls in place of barrels. He then imagines himself in an area similar to the game's third level, where he hops across moving platforms to reach a cupcake. Gonzo then finds himself back in the first level, where Piggy has taken the place of the King Copacabana, although she has actually just disconnected the system in reality.

Piggy then attempts to play ''Donkey Kong Jr.'', but fails miserably. Going back to the original ''Donkey Kong'', Piggy pretends to be a "Baby Mutant Ninja Piggy", tells Mario to get off the stage by scaring him off, climbs up to King Copacabana and defeats him.

After Piggy's play session, Gonzo goes through his Pretendo cartridges, three of which are titled ''Super Bario Bros.'', ''Son of Super Bario Bros.'' and ''Second Cousin of Super Bario Bros.''

A little later, Gonzo and Piggy imagine themselves in a ''The Legend of Zelda''-inspired game entitled ''The Legend of Emelda: The Quest for the Golden Key''. The music that plays at the start sounds very similar to the cavern music from ''Super Mario Bros. 2''.

In addition to parodying the games, actual footage of the games themselves is shown briefly.

==''{{wp|My Life as a Teenage Robot}}''==

[[File:mariohammerbros.jpg|thumb|"The Mad Hammer Brothers" in ''My Life As a Teenage Robot'' (2002-2006)]]

Two mustachioed Italian brothers, dressed in red and green clothing similar to that of Mario and Luigi, are recurring villains on the show. Additionally, they are named "the Mad [[Hammer Bro|Hammer Brother]]s", which might reference the enemies from ''Super Mario Bros.'' Being villains, they might be more modeled after [[Wario]] and [[Waluigi]], especially since the red brother's moustache has a zig-zag look like Wario's.

They later reappear in the episode "The Legion of Evil" (2005) as members of the titular group.

==''{{wp|Ned's Newt}}''==

When Ned and Newton enter the "old games section" of an arcade in the mall, Ned shows Newton one of the broken games and says, "This game is so old it only had one Mario brother." However, when they play the game after Newton fixes it, the game had nothing to do with Mario.

 

In the episode '''Painter Paint Hare''', when Jack the Painter is trapped in the bear's cave, a version of the music that plays when Donkey Kong is climbing up the construction site with Pauline in ''Donkey Kong'' can be heard.

In the episode '''Computer Bugs''', the video game that Bugs Bunny is playing near the start plays the 1-Up-collecting sound effect in the intro; when he confronts the boss of the level, a different variation of the music that plays when Donkey Kong is climbing up the construction site with Pauline in ''Donkey Kong'' is heard. The boss of the game also has a similarity to [[Bowser]], of which he is a fire-breathing lizard that rides in a similar vehicle to the [[Koopa Clown Car]]. After beating the boss, the coin-collecting sound effect can be heard.

In the English dub of episode 12, when Sora and Shiro are running away and cornered by Izuna Hatsuse's blood destruction abilities, Sora replies, "This is BS! Not even Mario can do that!"
