I've found a reference of it. First of all, the Owl and the Chick played a game, they used helmets to connect themselves to the game, when they collected items and jumped, the sounds were from the SNES games. After beating themselves up, they've got into the game. They reached a boss. The boss looked similar to a Chain Chomp. --[[Special:Contributions/83.156.220.80|83.156.220.80]] 03:29, 3 July 2018 (EDT)

All-in-all, just a coincidence and probably based on assumption, but I don't want to remove it just yet. What do you think? Is it an intentional reference or a pure coincidence? – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 16:06, August 6, 2019 (EDT)

:It seems coincidental to me. The only similarities are the mere presence of a princess and a plumber, otherwise there's no actual references to the game. While there is mention of a monkey king which could be interpreted as a reference to Donkey Kong, it could also easily be a reference to the mouse king from the Nutcracker, which wouldn't surprise me at all given the mention of an obvious sugar plum fairy spoof in the same sentence. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 17:31, August 6, 2019 (EDT)

I know that this has been deleted and finished a while ago, but there is conclusive proof that the Mario references [https://twitter.com/philvischer/status/1334679848363679747 were completely coincidental.] [[User:Ma321|Ma321]] ([[User talk:Ma321|talk]]) 22:59, December 16, 2022 (EST)

For those who have not heard about it, it is a new animated show partially created by YouTuber Vanossgaming and three others. As of now only a pilot episode has been aired on Vanoss's YouTube channel, and it is awaiting to be picked up by another company. The episode itself had a quick spoof of the Donkey Kong arcade game in it. I'm bringing this up because I'm wondering, is this the sort of thing we would list in this page or any of these other "List of Mario references" pages? {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}} 21:01, March 14, 2021 (EDT)

:Probably would belong on [[List of Mario references on the Internet]] unless the show gets picked up and actually airs. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 21:13, March 14, 2021 (EDT)

::Well, if you want to sift through them just to make sure, watch them here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hiqk1G6TSuA the one with the teeth is very obviously a Dr. Mario reference, and the one with the pirate ship is very obviously a Donkey Kong refrence.--[[Special:Contributions/74.64.68.192|74.64.68.192]]

:::Are there any time stamps you can give me? {{User:Swallow/sig}} 13:52, November 24, 2022 (EST)
::::At 0:10 is the first teeth one, and at 0:19 is the first pirate ship one. There are also ones that could be considered references to Luigi's Mansion or Mario Kart, but to me they're too different.--[[Special:Contributions/74.64.68.192|74.64.68.192]]
:::::I don't know Dr. Mario well enough to judge on that one, but the pirate ship one doesn't look much like Donkey Kong; there's not even an equivalent of Donkey Kong throwing barrels. {{User:Swallow/sig}} 14:04, November 24, 2022 (EST)
::::::The germs are the Dr. Mario reference there, and just because there's no Kong equivalent doesn't mean it's not a reference, as there's also a Q-Bert reference with no enemies. There's also one at 13:28 that's closer to Mario Kart than the rest, and one even closer to Donkey Kong at 16:10.--[[Special:Contributions/74.64.68.192|74.64.68.192]]
:::::::Climbing ladders in an 8 bit sidescroller isn't something that would always instantly reference Donkey Kong, it would have to be a lot more than that for it to be properly intentional. Mario Kart is a stretch since there's dozens of other kart racing video games. {{User:Swallow/sig}} 16:00, November 24, 2022 (EST)
::::::::Well, I can see your point there, but the teeth one is ''clearly'' a Dr. Mario reference. Even though it's absolutely not the same, the germs are clearly based off of the Viruses. They even do the same little dance!--[[Special:Contributions/74.64.68.192|74.64.68.192]]
== That Spongebob one ==
That one scene where a character in SpongeBob goes down a pipe (?) and has a syringe aiming and shooting at germs, if that is on the page, THAT is not a Dr. Mario reference. Dr. Mario has pills going down a glass jar to remove germs. That SpongeBob scene is just a syringe shooting a substance at germs. If you want to remove it, then go ahead. If you want to keep it, please give clarification on why you want to keep it. [[User:PaperMarioGolf|PaperMarioGolf]] ([[User talk:PaperMarioGolf|talk]]) 18:37, February 10, 2024 (EST)
:What about the checkered layout of the area Sandy enters after traveling through the pipe, which was clearly inspired by Dr. Mario? {{User:Soshi The Yoshi/sig}}
== Possible reference in ''Milo Murphy's Law'' ==
So I recently looked into the ''Milo Murphy's Law'' Season 2 episode "Pace Makes Waste" (the one with the NASCAR guest stars), and I noticed in a shot like [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/milomurphyslaw/images/2/29/Pace_%2821%29.png/revision/latest?cb=20190204012107 this one] a couple trucks labeled "Koop's Turtle Haven", plastered alongside a little green turtle image. Given that the Mario games feature turtles named [[Koopa Troopa|''Koop''a Troopas]], I was wondering if these trucks were referencing them? {{User:Arend/sig}} 16:38, May 11, 2024 (EDT)
== SpongeBob SquarePants ==
In the Atlantis SquarePantis section, should the image of Squidward inside a painting be replaced with a GIF of Lord Royal Highness throwing him into one to better illustrate the Super Mario 64 reference? {{User:Soshi The Yoshi/sig}}
