'''''Mario Trivia''''' was an online {{wp|Adobe Flash}} game developed by [[Nintendo]] and published on the [[Nintendo DS]] section of their website.
==Gameplay==
The game is structured as a quiz, with multiple choice questions that ask about different ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games, places, and characters, all written on a chalkboard. Before the player starts the game, they can choose between three difficulties: Easy, Medium, and Hard; each difficulty presents ten different questions. As the player goes through the questions, they are accompanied by [[Mario]] and a [[Bob-omb]]. If the player gets a question right, the word "CORRECT" is shown on the chalkboard and Mario jumps in the air. If the player gets a question wrong, then the word "INCORRECT" is shown on the chalkboard and Mario crosses his arms.
