===Mailbag 30===
===''[https://www.nytimes.com/games/connections Connections]''===
One of the E-Mails Sceb receives concerns him getting ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. Later, Space Chicken enters bragging about his skills in the game, wearing a green cap backwards with a white [[Luigi|L]] imprinted on it. Since then, the white L cap has appeared in the background of several cartoons on the website.
*The puzzle on January 30, 2024 had "power-ups in ''[[Super Mario World]]''" as one of its categories. The four words that make up this category are [[Cape Feather|feather]], [[Fire Flower|flower]], [[Super Mushroom|mushroom]], and [[Super Star|star]].<ref>[https://connections.swellgarfo.com/nyt/233 Connections — Puzzle 223].

Concerning the events of the previous Mailbag, Sceb tries to get Space Chicken to come out with his [[Nintendo DS]]; apparently Space Chicken lost when he got poor items (he mentions getting several [[Green Shell]]s and a single [[Mushroom]] while in fourth place). Space Chicken also shouts that Sceb [[Snaking|Snaked]].

*[[Bowser]], Wart, and a robotic version of Birdo called Mecha Birdo appear as bosses. During the battle with Mecha Birdo, [[Beezo]]s appear as enemies.
In this cartoon, The King of Town is dressed as Mario. When the toon is over, if he is clicked on, a secret mini-game called "[http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Super_Kingio_Brothers Super Kingio Bros.]" will be able to be played. The game however, is an obvious joke, as the player plays as the King of Town, who is too fat to hit any of the blocks or jump over the first Goomba. Interesting to note, in the same toon, Bubs is dressed as [[Lou Albano]].
*In one area inside the Room of Divine Transportation, there is a [[Snifit]] which operates a [[Bill Blaster]] that shoots Bullet Bills.
*In the Hall of Former The Guys, Bowser is stated to have been the first Guy to ever hold the title of "The Guy".

**After completing the Naughty Sorceress Quest once and ascending, [[Buzzy Beetle]]s replace Goombas in the 8-Bit Realm, a reference to the "new quest" in ''Super Mario Bros.''
*Some items reference the ''Super Mario'' franchise in their description, name, and use. Examples include "The Plumber's Mushroom Stew" and a [[Fire Flower]]. The "Whirling Maple Leaf" familiar may sprinkle the player with [[Maple Syrup]] to restore their MP, a possible reference to ''[[Paper Mario]]''.
*The "Path of the Plumber" challenge run is full of references to the ''Mario'' series. The badge system is a direct reference to ''Paper Mario'' and even uses some of the same attacks. The bosses are Koopa Paratroopa, Hammer Brother, Very Dry Bones, Angry Sun, King Boo, Kamek, Birdo, Bowser, and a version of Wario.

===''{{wp|Poptropica}}''===
The game features its very own version of the [[Minus World]], Level -0, "NEGATORY". Unlike the Minus World, it is beatable (as well as part of the game), but is far glitchier than Minus World. Other references include "Firey-Hot" from the Saargtsson battle is an exact copy of the cannon's blasts in the [[Airship]] levels of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', "Old Sage" looks similar to spikes found in [[The Moon]] level of ''[[Super Mario Land 2]]'', "Liekand", a boss, is very similar in appearance to [[Fryguy]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' (the fact that Liekand is a mouse that wears sunglasses is another iside reference, as [[Mouser]] is also a mouse that wears sunglasses), and in The "Stinkomanual", "Hold B" is said, which refers to holding '''B''' to make [[Mario]] run. The Stinkomanual's story also tells the player not to "expect any weepy Princess crap".
*On Game Show Island, "[[Bowser]]" is the correct answer to a question in the ''Braniacs!'' trivia game. The question is under the "Bad Guys" category, reading: "When he's not busy capturing [[Princess Peach]], this spikey-shelled villain finds time to [[Mario Kart (series)|race go-karts]] against [[Mario]] and his friends." Incorrect answers include "[[Donkey Kong]]", "[[Luigi]]", and "[[Toad]]".<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20200513203240id_/http://www.poptropica.com/scenes/islandGameShow/assets/trivia_noItalics.xml XML file] used for the ''Braniacs!'' trivia questions</ref>
*Mocktropica Island, which contains many references to video games, has a part where the player's character enters a fake loading screen. They must equip a helmet and break the letters on the screen by hitting them from below, causing them to shatter like [[Brick Block]]s, and obtaining an achievement called "Classic!"

After leaping over Bowser, Mario removes the axe, causing the Koopa King to plunge into the lava, and he runs over to where Princess Toadstool is waiting. The Princess thanks Mario for rescuing her, but rejects his offer for a kiss, as they just met, and that she doesn't want to make out with him. Mario explains that he merely wants a kiss as opposed to sex, and questions the Princess as to what he went through to reach her. The Princess concludes that Mario merely leapt a bunch of mushrooms (Goombas), and Mario argues that she was pathetic enough to get kidnapped by mushrooms in the first place. After Mario bickers about more aspects of his adventure, the Princess still refuses to kiss him. Mario then calls for Bowser (whom he refers to as "Dragon") to keep the Princess. Upon hearing this, Bowsers leaps out from the lava, grabs the Princess and bites her head off.

===So Long, Gay Bowser===

'''<span class="plainlinks">[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/so-long-gay-bowser So Long, Gay Bowser]</span>''' refers to one of Mario's voice clips from ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Whenever Mario lets go of Bowser's tail after spinning him around in the boss battles with him, he exclaims "So long<!--sic--> kinga{{sic}} Bowser!"<ref>CharlesMartinet (April 28, 2019).

Retrieved on March 23, 2023.</ref> However, this line is frequently misheard as "So long, gay Bowser!"
 
In the ''Shindō Pak Taiō Version'' of ''Super Mario 64'' (and by extension the version in ''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]''), as well as in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Mario instead says "Buh-bye!" when throwing Bowser in the boss battles, likely due to Bowser's Japanese name being Koopa.
 
===Wario Dies===
[[File:Wario Oh my god - Mario Party.oga|thumb|Wario shouting "Oh my God!" in the Japanese version of ''[[Mario Party]]'']]
'''<span class="plainlinks">[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/wario-dies Wario Dies]</span>''' is a series of YouTube videos that typically consist of sound effects and voice clips that depict [[Wario]] engaging in regular activities (such as eating or driving a car), only for something to go wrong and Wario to shout "Oh my God!" before dying. The earliest instance of the meme occurred on April 22, 2016, when Tumblr user tmcb uploaded an audio file titled "wario car crash.mp3".<ref>tmcb (April 22, 2016). [https://www.tumblr.com/tmcb/143241918123/wario-kart-crashmp3?source=share ''wario kart crash.mp3.'' ]. Tumblr. Retrieved March 12, 2023.</ref>
 
The voice clip of Wario shouting "Oh my God!" originates from the Japanese version of ''[[Mario Party]]'', in which it is heard when Wario loses or otherwise suffers misfortune; in Western versions of the game, this voice clip is replaced with Wario saying "So ein Mist!" (a voice clip taken from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' and slowed down), which is a German expression of disgust, similar to "Oh, shoot!" or "No way!"
 
Ironically, Wario cannot die in ''[[Wario Land II]]'' and  claims to be immortal in the game's instruction booklet. With the exception of the final boss battle, he also cannot die in ''[[Wario Land 3]]''.
 
===Weegee===

'''<span class="plainlinks">[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/weegee Weegee]</span>''' is a widespread Internet meme based on a {{file link|Luigi Sprite MiM.png|sprite of Luigi}} used for the [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|PC versions of ''Mario is Missing!'']], which appears to have a blank stare and a hunched-over posture. This led to the creation of a vectorized image based on the sprite that became the basis for the meme. The most common use of the meme is to edit "Weegee" or his face into images to create a sense of awkwardness and discomfort. Variants for other ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' characters also exist, most notably "Malleo", which is derived from Mario's sprite from the same game.
 
===Yoshi commits tax fraud===
'''<span class="plainlinks">[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/yoshi-committed-tax-fraud Yoshi committing tax fraud]</span>''' is a meme that began in 2016, when Tumblr user Druddigon responded to a list of 64 things wrong with [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'']] games (each of them being "nothing") with a claim that [[Yoshi]] has committed tax fraud. Upon being demanded to show proof, Druddigon responded with an edited image of {{file link|Yoshi FS.png|Yoshi's ''Fortune Street'' artwork}} with a text bubble saying "i committed tax fraud," with no capitalization or punctuation.

The August 3rd, 2007 Poll asked what kind of genre a ''Fred the Monkey''-themed video game should be. The fifth option is "Fred Teaches Typing", a reference to ''[[Mario Teaches Typing]]''.
*'''Mailbag 30''' - One of the E-Mails Sceb receives concerns him getting ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. *Later, Space Chicken enters bragging about his skills in the game, wearing a green cap backwards with a white [[Luigi|L]] imprinted on it. Since then, the cap has appeared in the background of several cartoons on the website.
*'''Mailbag 31''' - Concerning the events of the previous Mailbag, Sceb tries to get Space Chicken to come out with his [[Nintendo DS]]; apparently Space Chicken lost when he got poor items (he mentions getting several [[Green Shell]]s and a single [[Mushroom]] while in fourth place). Space Chicken also shouts that Sceb [[Mini-Turbo|snaked]].

*''[https://homestarrunner.com/toons/pumpkin-carvenival Pumpkin Carve-nival]'' - In this cartoon, The King of Town is dressed as Mario. When the toon is over, if he is clicked on, a secret minigame called "[http://www.hrwiki.org/wiki/Super_Kingio_Bros. Super Kingio Bros.]" will be able to be played. The game however, is an obvious joke, as the player plays as the King of Town, who is too fat to hit any of the blocks or jump over the first Goomba. Also, when the King of Town learns that his pumpkin entry in the contest receives a "worst place" prize, he laments, "Sorry, king, but our princess is in another castle." This is a reference to ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' In the same toon, Bubs is dressed as [[Lou Albano]].
*''[https://homestarrunner.com/toons/halloween-potionmajig Halloween Potion-ma-jig]'' - In this cartoon, The Cheat is dressed as [[Toad]]. At the end of the toon, clicking on The Cheat will have him make a noise similar to Toad's "I'm the best!" from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' before flying up in the air and landing with a "POOMP" as if hit by an item.
*''[https://homestarrunner.com/toons/issue-10 Teen Girl Squad Issue 10]'' - The character Tompkins is apparently playing a ''Super Mario'' game on an old [[Game Boy]] during the cartoon. Tompkins says he "has [[Bowser]] on the ropes" and a red shell "pØwn"s So and So. Later on, the Ugly One says "Let's get it on like [[Diddy Kong]]".
*''[https://homestarrunner.com/toons/fan-costumes-06 Halloween Fan Costumes '06]'' - One person dressed up as Homestar (who has his head visible from the costume) is next to a person in a Mario costume. Strong Bad says to the person, "Wait a minute, Homestar, who's that in your mouth? Did you eat Luigi?" The real Homestar responds by saying, "Yes, Strong Bad, I ate Luigi. He tasted like mushrooms."
*''[https://homestarrunner.com/toons/the-king-of-towns-very-own-quite-popular-cartoon-show The King of Town's Very Own Quite Popular Cartoon Show]'' - The title character calls his men "Beezos".

*''[https://homestarrunner.com/toons/most-in-the-graveyard Most in the Graveyard]'' - Strong Mad is dressed as a [[Thwomp]]. At multiple times in the toon, he jumps and causes the ground to shake, similar to real Thwomps.
*''[https://homestarrunner.com/supernes.swf Super NES]'' - This cartoon was made in ''[[Mario Paint]]''. Also, the page title "Super Homestario Bros." references ''Super Mario Bros.''
*''[http://hrwiki.org/wiki/Store_Thank_You_Messages Store Thank You Messages]'' - The page title, "Thank you so much for to buying our crap!!" is a reference to the ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' ending, where Mario says, "Thank you so much for-a playing my game."
*''[https://homestarrunner.com/sbemails/57-japanese-cartoon Email Japanese cartoon]'' - One of the NES endings in an Easter egg is the ending to ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''.
*''[http://www.homestarrunner.com/awexome.html Awexome Cross]'' - The sound effects for jumping, crashing and collecting buxx are taken from ''Super Mario Bros.'' The jump sound is the solid block hit sound, the crash sound is the Brick Block breaking sound and the buxx collect sound is the Coin collect sound.
*''[https://homestarrunner.com/sbemails/108-pom-pom Email pom pom]'' - When Pom Pom is pounding Strong Bad, various sound effects from ''Super Mario Bros.'', such as the Coin collect sound and the 1-Up sound, are heard whenever Pom Pom connects.
*''[http://www.videlectrix.com/duckguard1.html Duck Guardian]'' - The falling robot heads resemble the original Thwomp and the eggs resemble [[Yoshi Egg]]s.
*''[http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail153.html Email redesign]'' - Strong Bad is shown playing a videogame called "Sundae Driver". When he catches a cherry, a message that says "Cherry Get!" appears.

*''[https://homestarrunner.com/toons/the-homestar-runner-enters-the-spooky-woods The Homestar Runner Enters the Spooky Woods]'' - Pom Pom is dressed as [[Burt the Bashful]]. Pom Pom also recreates Burt's death animation after Strong Bad asks him to "provide some {{wp|Mode 7}}".
*''[https://homestarrunner.com/toons/ween22 2022 Costume Pack Now Available]'' - Strong Bad is dressed as [[Dr. Crygor]] in his appearance from ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'' Strong Bad also parodies a typical microgame by mimicking a microgame jingle and laughing like [[Wario]]. The microgame itself parodies [[Shaving Scream]] with the Stave it Off guy in place of Wario. Strong Mad also tells Strong Bad that he should have dressed as the "[[Jimmy T|Disco Guy]]" instead.

Lego Ideas is a website where people submit their own Lego projects. If the project gets 10,000 supporters, it goes into a review. If it passes the review, the project becomes an actual product and the maker will get 1% of the profit. One of the more popular projects was ''Super Mario''-themed (predating [[LEGO Super Mario|LEGO ''Super Mario'']]), which was archived due to rival company [[K'NEX]] owning the ''Super Mario'' license at the time:
*''Super Mario Project''
'''Project Description:''' "''The icon of game history: Super Mario along with his brother Luigi and the rest of the Mushroom Kingdom, have inspired and entertained us for 27 years. And will hopefully keep on doing so for many years to come! An idea came to me the very moment I discovered the "Ultimate Block" system of {{wp|LEGO}} bricks. The idea was so simple yet it inspired so much undefinable nostalgia and inspiration. The block idea I got consists of 4 parts, a 2x2 plate, two 2x1 bricks with brick relief, and a 2x2 tile with a centered stud on top. This became the most common Mario element, the Brick Blocks! Iconic as they are, and some may feel the Mario nostalgia kick in and see the potential LEGO and Mario combined would possess! The Mario games are varied, but the most memorable ones are the classic 2D side scrolling adventures of this amazing plumber, and not to forget, his Brother. So the idea is simple, Bring the best elements of Mario to the LEGO format... And as an initial idea, a 2D side scrolling adventure in 3 dimensions, is the perfect solution! Having several sections would allow you to expand the world as desired. There are 5 different sections, but it would not necessarily mean 5 different products. Presenting a single product containing all the parts needed to construct one of the 5 sections, would allow you to build the section you like the most, and rebuild it to another once you feel the need of change in scenery. This would allow one single product that can expand your world by every set added to your collection. The parts included would also allow a whole new world of possibilities to expand your own visions of a Mario world! Should it prove successful enough to become a continued theme, it would on a longer term introduce other themes and colour pallets so the variety would be expanded drastically. Also introduce larger play sets which would inspire even more. The Blocks will be essential in every set, with a greater number of Brick blocks, and some unique blocks in addition, such as the Mystery Block, Used Blocks and Note Blocks (Jump Block). These Blocks would require prints for 2x2 plates and 2x2 tiles (or center studded tiles), as well as 2x2 bricks. Including the essential items is a must, the Coins, Mushrooms, Fire Flowers, Super Leaves, Stars and 1-Up Mushrooms, to name the current ones.''"

On page [https://www.homestuck.com/story/5781 5781], during Act 6 Act 5 Act 1x2 of ''[https://www.homestuck.com/ Homestuck]'', Andrew Hussie, speaking through the narrative prompt, likens Trickster Mode to Mario ("a small Italian plumber who goes on sideways adventures") using a [[Super Star]] to power through the levels. He argues that being able to "win" without any effort thanks to being rendered "magic and invincible" by the Star is "actually devastating to his development as a human being" because "Mario NEEDS to stomp on all those mushrooms. He NEEDS to bonk those bricks with his head, for the sake of his personal growth." Hussie then admits that "Maybe Mario isn't the best example" since he is a "one-dimensional friendly cartoon plumber" and thus isn't quite applicable to the Trickster Mode situation that befell the teenage protagonists of the story.

====The Infinite Source====
The Infinite Source is an American YouTuber who makes videos pitting characters from various TV series, films, books, graphic novels, and videogames against each other in rap battles. There are a few rap battles involving ''Super Mario'' characters, such as: "[[Link]] vs. [[Mario]]: The Rap Battle", "[[Sonic]] vs. Mario: The Rap Battle", "Mario vs. [[Luigi]]: The Rap Battle", "Luigi vs. [[Tails]]: The Rap Battle", "[[Princess Peach]] vs. [[Zelda|Princess Zelda]]: The Rap Battle", and "Mario vs. [[Bowser]]: The Rap Battle." All rap battles are formatted so both contestants each have two verses (i.e., Mario raps his first verse, then Luigi raps his first verse, Mario raps his second verse, Luigi raps his second verse). Many of the Infinite Source's rap battles have extended versions (stylized as "Extended + Remastered"), which simply gives both rappers a third verse each; out of the ''Super Mario''-related raps, only Peach's, Bowser's, and the ''Super Smash Bros.'' rap battles lack extended versions.
 
Throughout the rap battle videos, various artworks of Mario, Luigi, and Peach, both official and fanmade, are seen, while gameplay footage of several ''Super Mario'' games is shown as well. While Mario is rapping, multiple voice clips of him from various games tend to be used in between (e.g. Mario's "Here we go!" voice clip from ''Super Mario 64'' plays before he says "It's-a Mario! Don't call me fat!" in the rap battle against Sonic). In his first and second verses against Sonic, Mario raps "[[Super Mario Bros.|Way back since 8-bits, I've been busting bricks with bare fists]]!" and "[[Donkey Kong (game)|In the game since '81, this plumber's done it all]]," referencing both his platforming adventures since ''Super Mario Bros.'' and his wide range of games since ''Donkey Kong''. In his third verse against Sonic, Mario says, "[[Shigeru Miyamoto|Miyamoto]] shocked [[Japan]] with the original [[Mario#Donkey Kong|Jumpman]]! My legacy will still survive, that's why my [[kart]] just got a ride!", referencing his original name in ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' and the real-life [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'']]-themed amusement ride in Universal Studio's theme park. Mario also references [[Goomba]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Princess Daisy]], and other characters and games in his verses, while Luigi similarly name-drops [[Yoshi]] in the rap battle against Mario.
 
Mario begins his rap battle against Bowser with the line, "[[Fire Flower]] spitta hitta with a temper [[Mega Mushroom|growing]] two sizes! No sudden moves, fool, Mario don't like surprises!" He name-drops the Fire Flower (using wordplay by comparing throwing [[fireball]]s to rapping really well), and references the fact that Bowser's boss fights often include second phases and/or powered-up battles (e.g., the appearances of [[Dry Bowser]], [[Super Bowser]], etc). Mario later says, "Items all on full. At the castle, who's next?," which references both the item inventory that appears in some games, and the many minions and traps that Bowser often loads his castles with.
 
One of Bowser's lines are, "Recognize King Koopa bouncing back, yeah, believe that! Say you're a fire spitta? Recognize cause I breathe that!," which alludes to both his signature [[Fire Breath]], and his constant plots to steal Peach regardless of his past defeats. In his 2nd verse, Bowser raps, "Super Smash you into concrete - true fire dissing. When this battle is over - sequel to ''Mario is Missing!''" He alludes to the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, and throws a reference to the game ''Mario is Missing!'', where Bowser kidnaps Mario.
 
In both that rap and the rap battle against Tails, Luigi often references his own adventure in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', as well as the [[Year of Luigi]], his superior jumping abilities over Mario's, and the increasing amount of popularity he's been receiving for the last decade. Luigi also says "It's-a me, Luigi! I'm-a gonna win!" at the very begin of his first verse, being a spin on Mario's famous catchphrase, as well as [[Wario]]'s signature quote from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. Luigi also says "I'll drop a mascot, just like my fraternal twin! I'm a real slim thug; been in the game since '83!" This is a direct callback to Mario's rap battle against Sonic, as Luigi is similarly rapping against Tails; both characters are often the sidekicks of the main protagonists' adventures. Luigi's very slight age difference is also referenced, as he was only born moments after Mario; additionally, he references his debut game, ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'', which came out in 1983, and him being taller than his brother. He also raps, "This is [[Luigi's Mansion (location)|Luigi's Mansion]]: your final resting place," name-dropping the eponymous mansion in which [[Luigi's Mansion (series)|the series is named after]]; and, "I'll bust a [[Red Shell|shell cap]] in your back, and hit you with a death stare!", referencing the powers of a Red Shell and the angry, determined expression made by Luigi whenever he passes by an opponent (which evolved into the infamous death stare meme).
 
The Infinite Source also made a [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.''-themed]] rap battle, which features Mario and [[Donkey Kong]]. In that rap battle, DK says at differing points, "Hold up! This is [[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong's country]]!" and "I've been stomping bitches out since [[Cranky Kong|my pops]] was [[Donkey Kong (game)|back in 8-bits]]!". Donkey Kong references his signature series of adventure games, as well as Cranky Kong, who was originally thought to be his father in early ''Donkey Kong Country'' games, though this was later retconned in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', in which he is stated to be Donkey Kong's grandfather; additionally, his references Cranky's debut game and only solo adventure. On a side note, Sonic and Mario's rap battle itself is referenced twice: in the "Sonic vs. [[Shadow (character)|Shadow]]" rap battle, Sonic raps "I cannot be beaten - ask Mario!" (as Mario was his prior opponent); in the "Mario vs. Luigi" rap battle, Luigi raps, "They got it right the 2nd time: you're too fat and too slow!" referencing one of Sonic's lines directed at Mario. In the Sonic vs. [[Knuckles]] rap battle, Knuckles raps, "In a blaze since the [[Sega]] days, I had to come through - it's time for big red to finally drop a big blue!," alluding to Sega's rivalry with Nintendo, and referencing Sonic's rivalry with Mario - a "red" character just like Knuckles himself.

====''Luzării de pe Electrolizei''====
[[File:Luzarii de pe Electrolizei Mario.png|thumb|300px|Mario appearing in ''Luzării de pe Electrolizei'']]
*The episode "[https://youtu.be/u8Ix8nCeFkg Luzării și Vrejul Fermecat]" <small>(eng. ''The Losers and the Magic Beanstalk'')</small> of the Romanian animated web series ''Luzării de pe Electrolizei'' involves Mario helping the main characters destroy a magic beanstalk that has grown out of one of their friends' rectum. Mario exclusively talks in English throughout the episode, although he is able to understand what the other characters say and converse with them freely. He is affectionately called "Marius", a common name in Romania, by one of the characters.
:As Frătzică and C8ilu' reach the top of the beanstalk to seek a solution to their problem, they enter a [[Coin Heaven]]-like area, where they find a "plumber" whom they agree to ask for help. The plumber explains that there are two ways to get rid of the beanstalk, the first one of which involves using a [[Super Mushroom]]; however, when Mario hits a [[? Block]] above to produce a mushroom, the characters accidentally let it slide into the beanstalk, causing it to grow even bigger and the Hungarian Bulan to scream in pain down below. The second way to destroy the beanstalk, Mario explains, is to hit with a [[Green Shell|Koopa shell]], which he is willing to sell for 10 [[coin]]s. While C8ilu' goes to get coins from a nearby ? Block, Frătzică asks Mario if his wife is well, to which Mario answers that "the [[Princess Peach|Princess]] is okay, taking [[wiktionary:pițipoancă|piți]]-photos in the bathroom with the iPhone". When C8pilu' is finished, he offers the coins to Mario and the two protagonists receive the Koopa shell in return. Mario warns them that the shell is unstable and instructs them to throw it onto the beanstalk, which causes it to shrink down. Frătzică thanks Mario for his help and, as a sign of gratitude, invites him and [[Luigi]] to a barbecue some other time.

[https://www.youtube.com/SiIvaGunner SiIvaGunner (formerly known as GiIvaSunner)] is a YouTube collective known for uploading avant-garde remixes and parodies of video game songs, many of which are from the ''Super Mario'' franchise or contain elements from it (along with related series such as the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series). Additionally, several of the channel's major elements are ''Super Mario''-related:
*One of the "main characters" as depicted by the channel is a variation of Mario known as "7 GRAND DAD", who is depicted in two different forms: a recolored, off-model Mario sprite, and {{wp|Fred Flintstone}} with Mario's head. The character originates from a bootleg ''Super Mario'' game known as “GRAND DAD 3M 原始瑪莉VII” (the Chinese translates to "Primitive Mario") that was in fact a minimally-edited version of ''{{wp|The Flintstones: The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy}}'', with the odd Mario graphic originating from another Mario bootleg, ''Dian Shi Ma Li''.
*The "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKDlqdsw1i8 CG Rap]" is a parody of the [[DK Rap]] from ''Donkey Kong 64'' in which most of the lyrics are replaced with "coconut gun". Most other remixes and uses of the DK Rap on the channel are based on this parody and/or reference "coconut gun" in a similar style.
*During the channel's "Christmas Comeback Crisis" story arc (a parody of the ''[[Kirby]]'' series), a false finale titled "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJxxoCgQi_c Waluigi's Tacostand]" was uploaded, which features the misadventures of [[Waluigi]] opening a taco stand and interacting with the channel's other characters.
*During the channel's "King for a Day" tournament, [[Wario]] and [[Waluigi]] as a duo and [[Geno]] were contestants that participated in the tournament. In its sequel, "King for Another Day", alongside the ''Super Mario''-themed contestants from the past tournament, [[Donkey Kong]] was also a contestant in the tournament, based on his incarnation from the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' cartoon.
*In addition, their [https://youtu.be/Dyiko56Dk5A arrangement] of the [[Cascade Kingdom|Fossil Falls]] theme from ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' was used by Nintendo of Italy in a promotional YouTube video for the game.<ref>NintendoItalia (October 18, 2017).

===={{wp|Smosh}}====
[[File:SmoshMario.png|thumb|upright=1.4|The Mario segment in the "If Video Games Were Real" video]]
*Smosh's 2010 video "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bKoahtmcHY If Video Games Were Real]" features a parody of ''Super Mario Bros.'' Here, Princess Peach is implied to be a prostitute, as her pimp (played by Ian Hecox) demands that Mario (played by Anthony Padilla) "pay up" if he wants to be with her. Mario then proceeds to punch a [[Brick Block]] to get a [[Coin]], but instead injures his hand screams, and swears.
*In Smosh's video "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gqx0u-0zG8c REAL VOODOO DOLL!]", the video starts with a frustrated Anthony playing ''Super Mario Bros.'', where he constantly loses lives to a Lakitu. Later in the video, Anthony is given a voodoo doll of Ian by an unseen entity who is later revealed to be a Lakitu. Ian asks the Lakitu to give him a voodoo doll of pop singer Ke$ha, but the Lakitu hits him with a Spiny instead. In addition, some Mario plushes and a ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' poster are also spotted in the video.
*Several ''Super Mario''-related objects are located around the house where most episodes take place, such as a painting of [[Yoshi]] and [[Yoshi Egg]]s.
*One of Smosh's licensed T-shirts is of Yoshi biting into a sign containing his name (in ''Super Mario''-style font).
*Smosh's "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=114PB9P-XXQ REJECTED MARIO GAMES]" video is entirely about made-up ''Super Mario'' games that were canceled due to their absurdity, and the beginning shows boxart of several past ''Super Mario'' games. ''Mario Teaches Walking'' is a parody of ''[[Mario Teaches Typing]]'' and ''Mario's Mansion'' is a fictionalized alpha version of ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', which shifted focus towards Luigi after Mario said "This game sucks, give it to Luigi." Other games featured include ''Mario Weight Loss Adventures'', ''Mario Tax Returns'', ''Mario XXX'', ''The Sims: Mushroom Kingdom Edition'', ''Mario Office'', ''Mario Yoga'', and ''Mario Kart: DMV Edition''. In the video, Anthony plays Mario and Ian plays Luigi.
*In the episode "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MS_NKaKnYnA&list=UUY30JRSgfhYXA6i6xX1erWg&index=1 WE'RE IN SUPER MARIO!]", Ian and Anthony travel into ''Super Mario Bros.'', but Ian proves to be terrible at the game. Upon reaching the end of World 1-1, Ian breaks his legs after failing to reach the Goal Pole, and in Anthony's attempt to reach it, he ends up being impaled on the goal pole instead. Seriously injured, the two of them decide to travel into the game ''Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball'' instead.
*In the episode "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7187SoBl6d0 SEXTING GONE WRONG!]", Mario (played by Anthony) appears as a random character to provide backup nude photos (with the threat of posting them online as part of a defense mechanism) and ends up dying of shock after seeing the nude photos of Timothy (the lead male character in the video, also played by Anthony).

[[File:DBZ Abridged Donkey Kong reference.png|thumb|250px|The Great Ape holding up a barrel like Donkey Kong]]
TeamFourStar have made a few references to the ''Super Mario'' franchise throughout their Dragon Ball Z Abridged series.
*There is a recurring gag in the series that consists of calling Namekians (usually Piccolo) [[Yoshi]]s. Some examples includes:
**In Episode 2, Goku asks Piccolo if he is a Yoshi due to them both being green and having been born from eggs, which Piccolo sarcastically says he is one. Then Goku asks if he can ride him, just like how Yoshis are rideable in most games they appear in.
***In the ''Dragon Ball Z Kai Abridged'' Episode 1, this scene is recreated and shortened a lot, with Goku only asking if Piccolo is a Yoshi, which he answers "Hell yeah".
**In the Christmas Tree of Might Movie Part 1, when Piccolo first meets Turles, he says that he looks like Goku, while Turles replies that he looks like a Yoshi.
**In the Lord Slug Movie, when Goku discovers Lord Slug's species, he almost calls him a Yoshi, but gets interrupted by King Kai telling him not to call him a Yoshi, and then proceeds to tell him he's a Super Namekian.
**TeamFourStar are even selling two shirts featuring Piccolo as a Yoshi, with the second one being called "Piccoloshi's Island" depicting him with a baby Gohan on his back, parodying the video game ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''.
*In Episode 4, when Gohan transforms into the Great Ape, music from ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' plays and he hoists a barrel up, much like [[Donkey Kong]]. When he transforms back into Gohan the power-down music from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' is heard.
*In Episode 25, when Krillin gets impaled by Frieza's horn, he claims that it's the worst pain he's ever gotten, but then Frieza continues stabbing him multiple other times, which gives Frieza [[Extra life|1-Up]]s. Also at the end of this episode, there is a parody of Frieza's transformation where he hits a [[? Block]] to get a [[Super Mushroom]] that transforms him into his second form. This scene is also accompanied by ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''{{'}}s overworld theme.
*In Episode 28, after Frieza finished the "game" he's playing with Goku, he asks him if he liked the game. Goku then responds that it was okay, but it was no ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'', which has a "[[50m|pie level]]."
*In the Revenge of Cooler Movie, when Gohan is on his way back to Goku and Krillin, Cooler's henchmen interrupts him and asks him "Well hello, [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]]. Where's [[Donkey Kong|Donkey]]?" Later on, after Salza kicks Gohan away, he says he's going to give the coup de gras to the king of [[Kong]]s, referring to Goku.

*The group's logo is a modified version of a [[1-Up Mushroom]], and one version of the bumper featured at the start of their highlights videos on YouTube incorporates both a [[Thwomp]] grunt from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and the 1-Up sound effect from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' (both audio clips were later modified due to copyright concerns).
*''[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHmR7c8zbVZQAoT3GIcionEesK4oQtr19 The Adventures of Mario & Luigi]'' is a series of redubs of the [[DIC Entertainment]] cartoons, typically depicting Mario and Luigi in crude situations while poking fun at the poor quality of the shows' animation.
*A recurring character in the group's content is Sponge, a parodic third Mario brother who keeps the ''Mario'' series cheery and bright by absorbing negative energy. Coincidentally, Sponge's design depicts him with orange clothes, predating the discovery of [[List of Super Mario 3D World pre-release and unused content#Unused content|two unused icons]] depicting an orange Mario and an orange "S" emblem in the data for ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''.

YouTube Poop refers to a style of YouTube videos consisting of randomly edited clips from various sources, usually to nonsensical effect<ref>https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/subcultures/youtube-poop-ytp</ref>. Among the more popular sources are clips from the ''Super Mario'' animated series (particularly  ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' and its episode "[[Mama Luigi]]"<ref>https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/mama-luigi</ref>), as well as cutscenes from ''[[Hotel Mario]]'', although other ''Super Mario''-related media has been used as sources as well. The phenomenon became significant enough to be acknowledged by some of the creators behind the original material, such as screenwriter [[Phil Harnage]]<ref>https://youchew.net/index.php?/articles/interviews/phil-harnage-interview-r370/</ref> and voice actor [[Marc Graue]];<ref>http://cdii.blogspot.ca/2008/07/marc-graue-voice-over-of-mario-in-hotel.html</ref>{{dead link}} Graue has even actively participated in the ironic fan community surrounding ''Hotel Mario''.

===={{wp|Zach Boucher}}====
{{rewrite-remove|section=yes|excessive information|Section is overly long and goes into too much detail. It's to be expected that there will be references to the ''Super Mario'' franchise in videos about them, so stick with the basics.}}
Canadian YouTuber Zach Boucher, professionally known as SploogeGaming, has made various rap songs and rap battles about the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. These include the "Intense [[Super Mario 64]] Rap", a rap song about [[Mario]]'s adventure to save [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and the [[Power Star]]s; "Intense [[Super Mario Sunshine]] Rap", another rap song that now centers about Mario's disastrous vacation in [[Isle Delfino]]; "Intense [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]] Rap", a third rap song that highlights Mario's adventure in the game; "Intense [[Luigi's Mansion]] Rap", a fourth rap song that centers on [[Luigi]]'s ghostbusting adventure to save Mario; "Lap One: A [[Mario Kart 8]] Rap", a rap song which highlights the flow of a typical ''Mario Kart 8'' race; "Ultimate [[Super Smash Bros.]] Rap Battle Parts 1 & 2", which has various characters from the base ''Super Smash Bros.'' roster rap against each other, including ''Super Mario'' representatives Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, [[Yoshi]], [[Donkey Kong]], [[Bowser]], and [[Bowser Jr.]]; "[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U|Super Smash Bros.]] Rap Battle: DLC Edition", which has all of the DLC characters from ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' engage in a rap battle; the "Smashing [[Dr. Mario]] Rap Song", which is a rap about ''Super Smash Bros.'' from Dr. Mario's perspective; and "Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Rap Battle Part 3," which brings Dr. Mario for a second round of rapping, and includes [[Wario]], [[Rosalina]] & [[Luma]], and [[Diddy Kong]] as contestants. Zach Boucher has produced "Rage Rap: Rainbow Road", which has him rap about the frustrating course layout of ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''s [[Rainbow Road]], while showing gameplay footage of [[Toad]] and [[Toadette]] from the same game. On October 30, 2019 Zach Boucher released "[[Luigi's Mansion 3]] Rap," which indirectly alludes to [[Gooigi]].
 
[[Portrait ghost]]s such as [[Biff Atlas]], [[Miss Petunia]], [[Sue Pea]], [[Neville]], [[Lydia]], [[Slim Bankshot]], and [[Vincent Van Gore]] are mentioned throughout the ''Luigi's Mansion'' rap song, and are shown as part of gameplay footage; [[King Boo]] makes rare appearances throughout the rap song; foes like [[Hooktail]], [[Sir Grodus]], and [[Lord Crump]] are referenced in the ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' rap song; and finally, the ''Super Smash Bros.'' rap battles feature numerous references: Mario (voiced by VideoGameRapBattles) says his signature catchphrase "It's-a me, Mario!" at the beginning of his verse, and references his famous status by referring to himself as "the lovable, idolized [[Nintendo]] character" and "what everyone wants to be"; Luigi (voiced by Adam Purski) references his [[Fireball]]'s disruptive capabilities by saying "Believe me, get hit by floating fireballs. That'll just completely f*** up your entire combo", and talks about his up aerial, [[Luigi Cyclone]], and damaging taunt; Bowser (voiced by NemRaps) references his [[Bowser Bomb]] and Flying Slam specials (ex: "Hit you with a [[Ground Pound]], cowards catchin' feelings" and "You'll expire when hit by my [[Flying Slam]]!"); Bowser Jr. (voiced by DefMatch) starts his rap by saying, "I'm Bowser Jr., [[Mechakoopa]]s will chew ya!", referencing his down special move, and later on, "I brought my seven brothers hovering above in these [[Junior Clown Car|Clown Cars]]", referencing the [[Koopalings]] and the mass-produced Junior Clown Cars; Yoshi (voiced by Zach Boucher) references his egg laying capabilities and fast attacks; lastly, Donkey Kong (also voiced by NemRaps) raps about his attack speed and KO power, while referencing his tantrums when the [[Kong]]s' Banana Hoard is stolen (ex:"They say I'm going bananas, but I don't feel ya, I kill ya."). Donkey Kong's next line is, "What's a monkey to a gorilla?", possibly referencing [[Diddy Kong]]; additionally, Donkey Kong's last few lines are, "Battling this O.G.? Homie, you're history. {{wp|King Kong (character)|King Kong}} ain't got shit on me!", which may reference the [[List of controversies#Legal and Copyrights|Universal City Studios, Inc. v. Nintendo Co., Ltd. lawsuit]], where {{wp|Universal Studios}} considered ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' a copyright infringement of King Kong. Later on, the court ruled in favor of [[Nintendo]], saying that, "''Donkey Kong'' is a unique game that does not share any similarities with King Kong".
 
There is a notable error in "Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Rap Part 1", where Bowser Jr. says "I brought my '''seven brothers''' hovering above in these Clown Cars", even though the Koopalings comprise of six males ([[Larry]], [[Lemmy]], [[Iggy]], [[Morton]], [[Roy]], and [[Ludwig]]) and one female ([[Wendy]]). Additionally, the Koopalings are not currently officially considered Bowser Jr.'s siblings. Bowser Jr. also references [[Shadow Mario Paint|his Final Smash]] and the ability to become [[Shadow Mario]] at the end of his verse. "Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Rap: Part 1" is notable for featuring the most ''Super Mario'' characters, with 6 in total, while Part 3 features 3, Part 2 features 1, and the DLC Edition features none. Several ''Super Mario'' characters also have beats inspired from existing tunes, though with added trap beats: Mario raps to the [[Hammer]] theme from ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'', Luigi raps to the Ground Theme of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', Peach raps to the [[Super Star]]'s arrangement from ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', Donkey Kong raps to [[25m]]'s theme from ''Donkey Kong'', and Rosalina & Luma rap to [[Gusty Garden Galaxy]]'s theme from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Interestingly, Bowser Jr. raps to a dubstep/trap arrangement of "Gourmet Race", a song from ''Kirby Super Star''.

Mari0 is a PC game that combines elements of Super Mario Bros. and the Portal series. As Mario, the player wields a portal gun which generates portals that warp the player, enemies, and objects to other areas.

Poptropica

  • On Game Show Island, "Bowser" is the correct answer to a question in the Braniacs! trivia game. The question is under the "Bad Guys" category, reading: "When he's not busy capturing Princess Peach, this spikey-shelled villain finds time to race go-karts against Mario and his friends." Incorrect answers include "Donkey Kong", "Luigi", and "Toad".[2]
  • Mocktropica Island, which contains many references to video games, has a part where the player's character enters a fake loading screen. They must equip a helmet and break the letters on the screen by hitting them from below, causing them to shatter like Brick Blocks, and obtaining an achievement called "Classic!"

Super Chick Sisters

As part of their campaign against fast food chain Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC), PETA published a satirical New Super Mario Bros.-inspired game called Super Chick Sisters on their kentuckyfriedcruelty.com website. The game's main characters mimic the appearances of Mario, Luigi and Princess Peach, with the final boss Colonel Sanders wearing a Bowser mask. Mario, Luigi, Toad, Princess Peach, Yoshi, Koopa Troopa and Dr. Mario themselves also appear in the game in various cutscenes.

New Super Chick Sisters

For a campaign against fast food franchise McDonald's, a sequel titled New Super Chick Sisters was released in 2010 on PETA's mccruelty.com website.

Super Mario ReMaker

Super Mario ReMaker was a remade version of Super Mario Maker for PC. The game had exclusive features such as the Rex enemy and the ability to customize costumes for Costume Mario. It has since been taken down by Nintendo.

Super PiCO World

Planning Center Online features a promotional game entitled Super PiCO World. It is a recreation of the first two levels of Super Mario Bros. with alterations to the gameplay and characters; the game replaces Mario with the company's mascot, PiCO, and is set in a world with various corporate-themed elements, such as folder-shaped power-ups and computer windows of Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel acting as Warp Pipes.[3]

Super Tanooki Skin 2D

Super Tanooki Skin 2D is a parody Flash game starring Tanooki, a skinless Japanese raccoon dog who is chasing Mario to get his skin back. The game has the player jump over obstacles to dodge them as they chase Mario. The game was released online by PETA to call attention to the practice of live skinning raccoon dogs in China and the supposed promotion of this practice by Nintendo's then recently-released game, Super Mario 3D Land, which features a power-up that gives Mario a Tanooki suit.

Stinkoman 20X6

This is the Only Level TOO

  • One of the level's iterations references World 1-2 of Super Mario Bros. In order to advance, the character must break two blocks in the ceiling and jump above it, then walk to the right as they access a Warp Zone-like area with pipes that lead to the next iteration.[4]

Memes

This section is for Super Mario-related Internet memes that have been particularly influential on Internet culture and do not have any particular association with specific online games, websites, or videos. Because memes are highly subjective, please ensure that any entries added to this section are backed up by credible sources, such as having a "Confirmed" status on Know Your Meme at the bare minimum.

0.5x A Presses / Parallel Universes / Scuttlebug Jamboree

0.5x A Presses is an Internet meme that circulated around 2016 regarding a certain video that concerns the Hazy Maze Cave stage in Super Mario 64. In the video, Super Mario 64 player pannenkoek2012[5] describes how to complete the objective Watch for Rolling Rocks in half an A Button button press. The video is well known for its absurdly complex analysis of the physics of Super Mario 64 and the technical manipulation of the game, though these traits (especially the former) are present in the majority of his videos. A comment by user TJ "Henry" Yoshi, "An A press is an A press, you can't say it's only a half.", has also been highlighted as a catchphrase associated with the video. Popularized phrases from the video itself include "Misaligned QPU" and "building up speed for 12 hours." The video has two variants, with one being commentated by pannenkoek2012 himself[6] and the other without the commentary.[7]

Bowsette

Wikipedia article: Bowsette
A panel from the comic that started the "Bowsette" meme
The final panel from the original web comic featuring what came to be known as "Bowsette" (full comicMedia:Super Crown by Ayyk92.png)

Bowsette is a meme which depicts Bowser using the Super Crown power-up (which, contradictory to the meme and its derivatives, can only be used by Toadette and cannot affect any other characters) to transform into a Princess Peach lookalike, stemming from a comic[8] posted on Twitter and DeviantArt by user ayyk92 on September 19, 2018. In the comic, Bowser uses the power-up after he and Mario are rejected in marriage proposal by Peach in Super Mario Odyssey's ending, with the implication that the resulting Peach lookalike got into a relationship with Mario (depicted as being during Mario Tennis Aces). The comic became immensely popular, after which the name "Bowsette" was appended to the character (despite not following Peachette's naming structure properly), to the point of the Peachette page being the Super Mario Wiki's most visited page for a time, followed by associated pages,[9] and the meme being the #1 trend on Twitter of Japan.[10] It spawned a large amount of fan art, parodies, and permutations, and ayyk92 went from just 78 followers to over 50,000 after posting the comic, having garnered over 1000 within a single day.[11]

The artist later made a sequel comic due to the original's popularity, featuring the transformed Bowser, with a cup of tea and an engagement ring, at the "Bad-Anon" from Wreck-It Ralph, to the other members' confusion.[12] Numerous other comics were also made, including one posted after Peachette was announced as a character in Mario Kart Tour, almost a full year after the original post, in which Peachette gets revenge on Bowser for the meme using a pair of Spiny Shells.[13] Two days after the actual anniversary, Haniwa posted a picture of an apron-clad Bowsette holding a cake while Mario and an upset Peach (wearing a "happy" mask) look on, an "HD" version of the original comic's final panel, and a self-made critique of the original.[14] Nintendo acknowledged the meme but stated they have nothing further to say about it.[15] On the launch date of New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, ayyk92 received a glass trophy from Niconico and Pixiv.[16]

Coincidentally, during the conceptual stages of Super Mario Odyssey's development, it was planned for Bowser to have his own version of Cappy. In one of the concepts shown in The Art of Super Mario Odyssey, Bowser is shown using his cap to capture Peach, becoming "Peach Bowser".[17] Additionally, the character Bowletta from 2003's Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga is an official incarnation of Bowser physically fused with a female character (namely Cackletta).

DK Rap

The DK Rap from Donkey Kong 64 has been subject to numerous memetic parodies, which are largely attributable to its highly quotable and allegedly "cheesy" nature (which was intentional on the part of composer Grant Kirkhope[18]). These parodies include citing and corrupting Lanky Kong's verse with emphasis on the word "he" (usually stylized as "HE"), as well as remixing the song in general, either to mock its lyrics or as a mashup with other songs (as has been done many times on SiIvaGunner's channel). YouTuber brentalfloss created a mock version of the DK Rap, describing what the five main Kongs of Donkey Kong 64 supposedly went on to do afterwards;[19] this version replaces Chunky Kong's verse with the statement that "He's dead" followed by a pause in the music, which itself became a meme.

Expand Dong

The "Expand Dong" meme.
Donkey Kong's face, along with the text "EXPAND DONG"

Expand Dong is a reaction image depicting Donkey Kong's face from the boxart of Donkey Kong 64, with the eponymous phrase (formed from letters of the game's logo) displayed below his face. The meme is strongly associated with a clip from the song "Our Love is Stronger Than a Golden Banana" from the Donkey Kong Country episode "Raiders of the Lost Banana", in which DK sings "I'd shower you with coconut cream pies",[20] as well as DK's expression on the cover of the Donkey Kong Country: The Legend of the Crystal Coconut VHS boxMedia:DKC Legend of the Crystal Coconut VHS.jpg, due to the perceived lewdness of both. Derivatives of the meme exist featuring other fictional characters and similar captions (which may be innuendos or otherwise). Coincidentally, court documents from Universal City Studios, Inc. v. Nintendo Co., Ltd. show that "Kong Dong" was one of many candidates for Donkey Kong's name during the original arcade game's development.[21]

Fat Yoshi

The big Baby Fat
"Fat Yoshi"

Fat Yoshi (also known as Big Yoshi or Beeg Yoshi) refers to official artwork of Baby Fat from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. It became popular after Tumblr user SupperMarioBroth uploaded a reconstruction of the artwork on January 13, 2017.[22] A higher quality version was found on a Japanese trading card and posted on SupperMarioBroth's Twitter account on October 2, 2018.[23]

"Fat Yoshi" is featured in the thumbnail of a YouTube video titled "BEEG BEEG YOSHI", which was uploaded by videogamedunkey on January 26, 2019. It has eleven million views as of March 2023. The video consists of videogamedunkey prank calling several businesses, including a Barnes & Noble, to ask about a stuffed animal of "the big Yoshi", and a Party City to ask an employee to search "big Yoshi" on Google Images.

On January 31, 2019, a video titled "Harassing people with fat yoshi" was uploaded to YouTube by anthpo. The video has twelve million views as of March 2023. A sequel to the video was uploaded on June 5, 2019, which has four million views.

On March 13, 2024, the official Nintendo of America account on X referenced the meme in a post that simply reads "Big. #SuperMarioRPG", accompanied by a short video of Baby Fat in his fat state in the Nintendo Switch remake of Super Mario RPG.[24]

i've won...... but at what cost?

Image used for the "I've won, but at what cost?" meme for the List of references on the Internet#Memes page.
Original image uploaded to Tumblr

"i've won...... but at what cost?" is the caption of an image macro depicting a slightly transparent version of Wario's losing sprite from Mario Party 8 over a cloudy sky. It is often used as a reaction image in scenarios where someone contemplates the severity of a negative consequence of an otherwise good achievement.

The meme's earliest known appearance was on April 17, 2014, when Tumblr user hocotate-civ uploaded it to the website.[25] The image was reposted by Tumblr user ambipom on July 2, 2014 with the caption "when u beat a game with a sad ending".[26] As of September 2023, the posts have respectively received 48,300 and 290,400 notes.

Luigi's Death Stare

Luigi in Mario Kart Tour.
A screenshot of Luigi staring at the camera in Mario Kart Tour, posted by the official Mario Kart Tour Twitter account

Luigi's Death Stare refers to the combination of Luigi's determined facial expression and his face's tracking his opponent when he overtakes them in Mario Kart 8 (though the expression is neither exclusive to him, being shared by Mario for example, nor did it originate in Mario Kart 8). Originally brought to attention in user-uploaded clips of the game,[27][28] Luigi's "death stare" grew in popularity when it was featured in the video "Luigi Ridin' Dirty", which set one of the aforementioned clips to the song "Ridin'" by Chamillionaire.[29][30]

The meme was referenced by Nintendo in a Japanese commercial for Mario Kart 8[31] and mentioned in the Nintendo Digital Event at E3 2014. It was later referenced in-game in Paper Mario: Color Splash by Huey after he, Mario, and Luigi arrive at Black Bowser's Castle;[32] in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope through Luigi's Steely Stare ability; and in Paper Mario: The Origami King by the green Toad at the start of Picnic Road.[33] On October 19, 2019, Mario Kart Tour's official Twitter account posted a screenshot referencing Luigi's Death Stare in a tweet announcing Luigi's appearance in the game.[34] A Nintendo Switch News article promoting games with Luigi references the meme, stating: "From capturing spooky ghosts in Luigi’s Mansion 3 to giving other racers the stare in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Luigi has been a charismatic protagonist of many great titles."[35] Luigi can be seen in the same pose in a promotional screenshotMedia:MK8D BCP Wave 6 characters.png for Wave 6 of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass.

Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing

Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing is a series of videos depicting, as its name indicates, an immobile Luigi winning games (usually minigames from the Mario Party series or sometimes battles in the Super Smash Bros. series) as his AI-controlled opponents, who are all often set to the easiest difficulty (highest in Super Smash Bros. games), defeat themselves. The original video, featuring Mario Party 2, was uploaded on YouTube on October 11, 2009, and has over 8.5 million views as of July 2020.[36]

The meme was referenced by the official Nintendo of Europe and Super Mario UK Twitter accounts, which, on November 29, 2017, both posted a clip of an immobile Luigi winning in the Mario Party: The Top 100 remake of the Mario Party 2 minigame Bumper Balls (one of the minigames featured in the original video) with the caption "Yes, it still works."[37][38] The meme was again referenced in the April 2021 edition of "Nintendo Monthly Rewind" by Nintendo of America, in which Super Mario Party's 1.1.0 update is mentioned alongside footage of Luigi's turn, at which the narrator says "But will Luigi win by doing nothing? We'll leave that part to you".[39]

Mama Luigi

Luigi saying, "That's Mama Luigi to you, Mario!" in the Super Mario World cartoon
"Mama Luigi"

Mama Luigi is a meme based on the version of Luigi from the Super Mario World TV series, in particular the episode "Mama Luigi". He wears a green hat, matching overalls, and a blue shirt, and has green eyes that are sometimes cross-eyed (which is actually taken from the ending of the episode "The Yoshi Shuffle"). His favorite food is bagels and his most recurring catchphrases are "Or is it the bagel?" and "That's Mama Luigi to you."

Due to the meme's popularity, the "Mama Luigi" episode was re-animated by a collaboration of fans organized by Andrew Dickman of Electronic Heroes, with each animator recreating a different scene. The project was finished and uploaded to YouTube on August 29, 2017.[40]

New Funky Mode

The North American cover art for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze on Nintendo Switch
North American boxart for the Nintendo Switch version of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, featuring "New Funky Mode" in the top-right corner

New Funky Mode is a meme derived from the box art of the Nintendo Switch version of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, which features a cut-in in the top-right corner showing Funky Kong alongside text reading "NEW FUNKY MODE" in the North American version or "FUNKY NEW MODE" in the European, Australian, and New Zealand versions. Instances of the meme usually involve editing the "New Funky Mode" or "Funky New Mode" tags onto box art for other games.

The meme was referenced by the official Nintendo UK Twitter account on March 19, 2018, which tweeted about Nintendo's presence at Insomnia62 with games such as Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, along with an image showing the "Funky New Mode" tag on the Insomnia62 logo.[41]

So Long, Gay Bowser

Mario saying "So long kinga Bowser!" in Super Mario 64

So Long, Gay Bowser refers to one of Mario's voice clips from Super Mario 64. Whenever Mario lets go of Bowser's tail after spinning him around in the boss battles with him, he exclaims "So long kinga[sic] Bowser!"[42] However, this line is frequently misheard as "So long, gay Bowser!"

In the Shindō Pak Taiō Version of Super Mario 64 (and by extension the version in Super Mario 3D All-Stars), as well as in Super Mario 64 DS, Mario instead says "Buh-bye!" when throwing Bowser in the boss battles, likely due to Bowser's Japanese name being Koopa.

Wario Dies

Wario shouting "Oh my God!" in the Japanese version of Mario Party

Wario Dies is a series of YouTube videos that typically consist of sound effects and voice clips that depict Wario engaging in regular activities (such as eating or driving a car), only for something to go wrong and Wario to shout "Oh my God!" before dying. The earliest instance of the meme occurred on April 22, 2016, when Tumblr user tmcb uploaded an audio file titled "wario car crash.mp3".[43]

The voice clip of Wario shouting "Oh my God!" originates from the Japanese version of Mario Party, in which it is heard when Wario loses or otherwise suffers misfortune; in Western versions of the game, this voice clip is replaced with Wario saying "So ein Mist!" (a voice clip taken from Mario Kart 64 and slowed down), which is a German expression of disgust, similar to "Oh, shoot!" or "No way!"

Ironically, Wario cannot die in Wario Land II and claims to be immortal in the game's instruction booklet. With the exception of the final boss battle, he also cannot die in Wario Land 3.

Weegee

The artwork of Luigi used for the "Weegee" meme. For the List of references on the Internet page.
Weegee

Weegee is a widespread Internet meme based on a sprite of LuigiMedia:Luigi Sprite MiM.png used for the PC versions of Mario is Missing!, which appears to have a blank stare and a hunched-over posture. This led to the creation of a vectorized image based on the sprite that became the basis for the meme. The most common use of the meme is to edit "Weegee" or his face into images to create a sense of awkwardness and discomfort. Variants for other Super Mario characters also exist, most notably "Malleo", which is derived from Mario's sprite from the same game.

Yoshi commits tax fraud

Yoshi committing tax fraud is a meme that began in 2016, when Tumblr user Druddigon responded to a list of 64 things wrong with Yoshi games (each of them being "nothing") with a claim that Yoshi has committed tax fraud. Upon being demanded to show proof, Druddigon responded with an edited image of Yoshi's Fortune Street artworkMedia:Yoshi FS.png with a text bubble saying "i committed tax fraud," with no capitalization or punctuation. The meme gained traction in 2018, following YouTuber SiIvaGunner using the meme in some of his "high-quality rip" remixes.

Coincidentally, Yoshi is the only playable character in Fortune Street to request tax exemption should the player build a new tax office on the playing board, predating the meme by roughly five years.[44]

The meme was referenced by Nintendo's official esports Twitter account on February 9, 2019, which, in a tweet about a player winning a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament as Yoshi, stated "This Yoshi is no fraud!"[45]

Homestar Runner

"pØwned! Or however you say that!"
Super Kingio Bros.
The King of Town dressed as Mario in a Super Mario Bros. parody.
  • Pumpkin Carve-nival - In this cartoon, The King of Town is dressed as Mario. When the toon is over, if he is clicked on, a secret minigame called "Super Kingio Bros." will be able to be played. The game however, is an obvious joke, as the player plays as the King of Town, who is too fat to hit any of the blocks or jump over the first Goomba. Also, when the King of Town learns that his pumpkin entry in the contest receives a "worst place" prize, he laments, "Sorry, king, but our princess is in another castle." This is a reference to Super Mario Bros. In the same toon, Bubs is dressed as Lou Albano.
  • Halloween Potion-ma-jig - In this cartoon, The Cheat is dressed as Toad. At the end of the toon, clicking on The Cheat will have him make a noise similar to Toad's "I'm the best!" from Mario Kart 64 before flying up in the air and landing with a "POOMP" as if hit by an item.
  • Teen Girl Squad Issue 10 - The character Tompkins is apparently playing a Super Mario game on an old Game Boy during the cartoon. Tompkins says he "has Bowser on the ropes" and a red shell "pØwn"s So and So. Later on, the Ugly One says "Let's get it on like Diddy Kong".
  • Halloween Fan Costumes '06 - One person dressed up as Homestar (who has his head visible from the costume) is next to a person in a Mario costume. Strong Bad says to the person, "Wait a minute, Homestar, who's that in your mouth? Did you eat Luigi?" The real Homestar responds by saying, "Yes, Strong Bad, I ate Luigi. He tasted like mushrooms."
  • The King of Town's Very Own Quite Popular Cartoon Show - The title character calls his men "Beezos".
  • Weekly Fan Stuff - The weekly Fan Stuff featured on March 13, 2008 is a custom level from Super Smash Bros. Brawl shaped like Trogdor.
  • Strong Bad E-Mail 22 - Before checking his email, Strong Bad hums the music from the first level of Donkey Kong.
  • Most in the Graveyard - Strong Mad is dressed as a Thwomp. At multiple times in the toon, he jumps and causes the ground to shake, similar to real Thwomps.
  • Super NES - This cartoon was made in Mario Paint. Also, the page title "Super Homestario Bros." references Super Mario Bros.
  • Store Thank You Messages - The page title, "Thank you so much for to buying our crap!!" is a reference to the Super Mario 64 ending, where Mario says, "Thank you so much for-a playing my game."
  • Email Japanese cartoon - One of the NES endings in an Easter egg is the ending to Super Mario Bros. 2.
  • Awexome Cross - The sound effects for jumping, crashing and collecting buxx are taken from Super Mario Bros. The jump sound is the solid block hit sound, the crash sound is the Brick Block breaking sound and the buxx collect sound is the Coin collect sound.
  • Email pom pom - When Pom Pom is pounding Strong Bad, various sound effects from Super Mario Bros., such as the Coin collect sound and the 1-Up sound, are heard whenever Pom Pom connects.
  • Duck Guardian - The falling robot heads resemble the original Thwomp and the eggs resemble Yoshi Eggs.
  • Email redesign - Strong Bad is shown playing a videogame called "Sundae Driver". When he catches a cherry, a message that says "Cherry Get!" appears. This is a reference to the infamous broken English "Shine Get!" message found in the Japanese version of Super Mario Sunshine.
  • Email comic (DVD Commentary) - In the Easter egg, Matt and Mike first mimic and then make reference to the 1-Up sound.
  • Sbemail 150?!? - One of the storyboards of Strong Sad's email idea involves Homestar wearing a Snifit mask.
  • Homestar Runner Goes for the Gold - A hidden scene viewable by clicking on the "end" title shows Strong Bad and Homestar attempting to use Mario Paint to animate the cartoon before giving up and deciding to use Flash instead, which Homestar sarcastically states is "way less obsolete".
  • The Homestar Runner Enters the Spooky Woods - Pom Pom is dressed as Burt the Bashful. Pom Pom also recreates Burt's death animation after Strong Bad asks him to "provide some Mode 7".
  • 2022 Costume Pack Now Available - Strong Bad is dressed as Dr. Crygor in his appearance from WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! Strong Bad also parodies a typical microgame by mimicking a microgame jingle and laughing like Wario. The microgame itself parodies Shaving Scream with the Stave it Off guy in place of Wario. Strong Mad also tells Strong Bad that he should have dressed as the "Disco Guy" instead.

Lego Ideas

Lego Ideas is a website where people submit their own Lego projects. If the project gets 10,000 supporters, it goes into a review. If it passes the review, the project becomes an actual product and the maker will get 1% of the profit. One of the more popular projects was Super Mario-themed (predating LEGO Super Mario), which was archived due to rival company K'NEX owning the Super Mario license at the time:

  • Super Mario Project

Project Description: "The icon of game history: Super Mario along with his brother Luigi and the rest of the Mushroom Kingdom, have inspired and entertained us for 27 years. And will hopefully keep on doing so for many years to come! An idea came to me the very moment I discovered the "Ultimate Block" system of LEGO bricks. The idea was so simple yet it inspired so much undefinable nostalgia and inspiration. The block idea I got consists of 4 parts, a 2x2 plate, two 2x1 bricks with brick relief, and a 2x2 tile with a centered stud on top. This became the most common Mario element, the Brick Blocks! Iconic as they are, and some may feel the Mario nostalgia kick in and see the potential LEGO and Mario combined would possess! The Mario games are varied, but the most memorable ones are the classic 2D side scrolling adventures of this amazing plumber, and not to forget, his Brother. So the idea is simple, Bring the best elements of Mario to the LEGO format... And as an initial idea, a 2D side scrolling adventure in 3 dimensions, is the perfect solution! Having several sections would allow you to expand the world as desired. There are 5 different sections, but it would not necessarily mean 5 different products. Presenting a single product containing all the parts needed to construct one of the 5 sections, would allow you to build the section you like the most, and rebuild it to another once you feel the need of change in scenery. This would allow one single product that can expand your world by every set added to your collection. The parts included would also allow a whole new world of possibilities to expand your own visions of a Mario world! Should it prove successful enough to become a continued theme, it would on a longer term introduce other themes and colour pallets so the variety would be expanded drastically. Also introduce larger play sets which would inspire even more. The Blocks will be essential in every set, with a greater number of Brick blocks, and some unique blocks in addition, such as the Mystery Block, Used Blocks and Note Blocks (Jump Block). These Blocks would require prints for 2x2 plates and 2x2 tiles (or center studded tiles), as well as 2x2 bricks. Including the essential items is a must, the Coins, Mushrooms, Fire Flowers, Super Leaves, Stars and 1-Up Mushrooms, to name the current ones."

Movoto.com

In "Real-life Bowsers Castle: Jump on this deal before Mario Does", David Cross has done the math on how tall, how wide, and how expensive Bowser's castle would be as it appears in Super Mario Bros. 3 in real-world terms. He published the results in a blog post[53] and an infographic[54]. Cross, in "Super Mario Bros: Cash in Your Dollars for 8-bit Gold", states that a single Coin would be worth $508,829.16 in real-world money.[55]

In Natalie Grigson's article, Grigson calculated that Peach's Castle is worth $950,972,940 in real-world money, not including the moat, land or paintings, and in another she priced Donkey Kong's Tree House at $3,800.

Randy Nelson's "The Real-World Price of Luigi’s Mansion", sets the mansion's price at $17,170,029[56]. R. Nelson also did an article on "30 reasons to move to the Mushroom Kingdom"[57]. Bowser's Castle, Peach's Castle, Luigi's Mansion, and Donkey Kong's Tree House are among the buildings in R. Nelson's "15 Famous Video Game Houses Built With LEGO Bricks"[58].

MS Paint Adventures (Homestuck)

On page 5781, during Act 6 Act 5 Act 1x2 of Homestuck, Andrew Hussie, speaking through the narrative prompt, likens Trickster Mode to Mario ("a small Italian plumber who goes on sideways adventures") using a Super Star to power through the levels. He argues that being able to "win" without any effort thanks to being rendered "magic and invincible" by the Star is "actually devastating to his development as a human being" because "Mario NEEDS to stomp on all those mushrooms. He NEEDS to bonk those bricks with his head, for the sake of his personal growth." Hussie then admits that "Maybe Mario isn't the best example" since he is a "one-dimensional friendly cartoon plumber" and thus isn't quite applicable to the Trickster Mode situation that befell the teenage protagonists of the story.

Mike Nelson: "Mommy, why is there a lady at a church in a city? Where are the Mushrooms and the turtles and the coins?"

Mike Nelson: "Oh! My favorite Mario Party minigame: delousing the genitals."

Mike Nelson: "Forget this, the boss has me trained to throw an endless supply of hammers for some reason. How about you?"
Kevin Murphy: "Ugh, boomerangs. Never ends, does it?"

Bill Corbett: "Mario, if you make it out of this, I'm doing that mansion game on my own!"

Mario: "Ugh, I hate heights."
Bill Corbett: "Says the character who frequently sprouts a tail and soars above the clouds."

Mike Nelson: "All the fun of Mario Kart! Minus the competition, the test of skill, the powerups, the iconic characters, the good graphics, the tight controls, the classic sound effects, the well-thought out levels, online play, battle mode... On the other hand, no [bleep]ing Blue Shells.

Kevin Murphy: "Say! The Mushroom Kingdom, after dark!"
Bill Corbett: "So, like Level 8 of Mario 3?"
 Kevin Murphy: "No, that's not what I meant!"

Bill Corbett (when Yoshi appears): "Mario! Is that really you?"

Mike Nelson: "Whoa! They... they actually did it! A... a... a faithful representation of the skank slalom level in Super Mario Brothers 2!"
Kevin Murphy: "Wait, skank slalom level? I don't remember that!"
Mike Nelson: "Of course you do, Kevin. You know, you ride a stained mattress down a frozen pipe and can only access it by playing as Daniella, Mario's Italian girlfriend."
Bill Corbett: "Daniella's in the game?"
Mike Nelson: "Sure is! You have unlock her character by dancing with a large woman at the Boom Boom Club and playing Toad's famous harmonica melody back.
 Kevin Murphy: "Toad's harmonica melod-"
Mike Nelson: "Yeah, but that's only after you fix your van's radiator, beat Scapelli to a plumbing job; and take your girlfriend Daniella, your foster child Luigi, and his date, Daisy, to a fine Italian meal."
Bill Corbett: "Huh! I... never realized ...uh... I have to check that out."
Mike Nelson: "Oh, don't bother. This is nothing like any Super Mario game. But it is a spot-on recreation of Ecco the Dolphin down to every last detail!"
Kevin Murphy: "Uh, uh, Ecco the Dolphin is a skank slalom level?"
Mike Nelson: "It's a masterpiece..."
Kevin Murphy: "Okay..."

The Infinite Source

The Infinite Source is an American YouTuber who makes videos pitting characters from various TV series, films, books, graphic novels, and videogames against each other in rap battles. There are a few rap battles involving Super Mario characters, such as: "Link vs. Mario: The Rap Battle", "Sonic vs. Mario: The Rap Battle", "Mario vs. Luigi: The Rap Battle", "Luigi vs. Tails: The Rap Battle", "Princess Peach vs. Princess Zelda: The Rap Battle", and "Mario vs. Bowser: The Rap Battle." All rap battles are formatted so both contestants each have two verses (i.e., Mario raps his first verse, then Luigi raps his first verse, Mario raps his second verse, Luigi raps his second verse). Many of the Infinite Source's rap battles have extended versions (stylized as "Extended + Remastered"), which simply gives both rappers a third verse each; out of the Super Mario-related raps, only Peach's, Bowser's, and the Super Smash Bros. rap battles lack extended versions.

Throughout the rap battle videos, various artworks of Mario, Luigi, and Peach, both official and fanmade, are seen, while gameplay footage of several Super Mario games is shown as well. While Mario is rapping, multiple voice clips of him from various games tend to be used in between (e.g. Mario's "Here we go!" voice clip from Super Mario 64 plays before he says "It's-a Mario! Don't call me fat!" in the rap battle against Sonic). In his first and second verses against Sonic, Mario raps "Way back since 8-bits, I've been busting bricks with bare fists!" and "In the game since '81, this plumber's done it all," referencing both his platforming adventures since Super Mario Bros. and his wide range of games since Donkey Kong. In his third verse against Sonic, Mario says, "Miyamoto shocked Japan with the original Jumpman! My legacy will still survive, that's why my kart just got a ride!", referencing his original name in Donkey Kong and the real-life Mario Kart-themed amusement ride in Universal Studio's theme park. Mario also references Goombas, Koopa Troopas, Princess Daisy, and other characters and games in his verses, while Luigi similarly name-drops Yoshi in the rap battle against Mario.

Mario begins his rap battle against Bowser with the line, "Fire Flower spitta hitta with a temper growing two sizes! No sudden moves, fool, Mario don't like surprises!" He name-drops the Fire Flower (using wordplay by comparing throwing fireballs to rapping really well), and references the fact that Bowser's boss fights often include second phases and/or powered-up battles (e.g., the appearances of Dry Bowser, Super Bowser, etc). Mario later says, "Items all on full. At the castle, who's next?," which references both the item inventory that appears in some games, and the many minions and traps that Bowser often loads his castles with.

One of Bowser's lines are, "Recognize King Koopa bouncing back, yeah, believe that! Say you're a fire spitta? Recognize cause I breathe that!," which alludes to both his signature Fire Breath, and his constant plots to steal Peach regardless of his past defeats. In his 2nd verse, Bowser raps, "Super Smash you into concrete - true fire dissing. When this battle is over - sequel to Mario is Missing!" He alludes to the Super Smash Bros. series, and throws a reference to the game Mario is Missing!, where Bowser kidnaps Mario.

In both that rap and the rap battle against Tails, Luigi often references his own adventure in New Super Luigi U, as well as the Year of Luigi, his superior jumping abilities over Mario's, and the increasing amount of popularity he's been receiving for the last decade. Luigi also says "It's-a me, Luigi! I'm-a gonna win!" at the very begin of his first verse, being a spin on Mario's famous catchphrase, as well as Wario's signature quote from Mario Kart 64. Luigi also says "I'll drop a mascot, just like my fraternal twin! I'm a real slim thug; been in the game since '83!" This is a direct callback to Mario's rap battle against Sonic, as Luigi is similarly rapping against Tails; both characters are often the sidekicks of the main protagonists' adventures. Luigi's very slight age difference is also referenced, as he was only born moments after Mario; additionally, he references his debut game, Mario Bros., which came out in 1983, and him being taller than his brother. He also raps, "This is Luigi's Mansion: your final resting place," name-dropping the eponymous mansion in which the series is named after; and, "I'll bust a shell cap in your back, and hit you with a death stare!", referencing the powers of a Red Shell and the angry, determined expression made by Luigi whenever he passes by an opponent (which evolved into the infamous death stare meme).

The Infinite Source also made a Super Smash Bros.-themed rap battle, which features Mario and Donkey Kong. In that rap battle, DK says at differing points, "Hold up! This is Donkey Kong's country!" and "I've been stomping bitches out since my pops was back in 8-bits!". Donkey Kong references his signature series of adventure games, as well as Cranky Kong, who was originally thought to be his father in early Donkey Kong Country games, though this was later retconned in Donkey Kong Country Returns, in which he is stated to be Donkey Kong's grandfather; additionally, his references Cranky's debut game and only solo adventure. On a side note, Sonic and Mario's rap battle itself is referenced twice: in the "Sonic vs. Shadow" rap battle, Sonic raps "I cannot be beaten - ask Mario!" (as Mario was his prior opponent); in the "Mario vs. Luigi" rap battle, Luigi raps, "They got it right the 2nd time: you're too fat and too slow!" referencing one of Sonic's lines directed at Mario. In the Sonic vs. Knuckles rap battle, Knuckles raps, "In a blaze since the Sega days, I had to come through - it's time for big red to finally drop a big blue!," alluding to Sega's rivalry with Nintendo, and referencing Sonic's rivalry with Mario - a "red" character just like Knuckles himself.

Luzării de pe Electrolizei

Mario appearing in Luzării de pe Electrolizei
  • The episode "Luzării și Vrejul Fermecat" (eng. The Losers and the Magic Beanstalk) of the Romanian animated web series Luzării de pe Electrolizei involves Mario helping the main characters destroy a magic beanstalk that has grown out of one of their friends' rectum. Mario exclusively talks in English throughout the episode, although he is able to understand what the other characters say and converse with them freely. He is affectionately called "Marius", a common name in Romania, by one of the characters.
As Frătzică and C8ilu' reach the top of the beanstalk to seek a solution to their problem, they enter a Coin Heaven-like area, where they find a "plumber" whom they agree to ask for help. The plumber explains that there are two ways to get rid of the beanstalk, the first one of which involves using a Super Mushroom; however, when Mario hits a ? Block above to produce a mushroom, the characters accidentally let it slide into the beanstalk, causing it to grow even bigger and the Hungarian Bulan to scream in pain down below. The second way to destroy the beanstalk, Mario explains, is to hit with a Koopa shell, which he is willing to sell for 10 coins. While C8ilu' goes to get coins from a nearby ? Block, Frătzică asks Mario if his wife is well, to which Mario answers that "the Princess is okay, taking piți-photos in the bathroom with the iPhone". When C8pilu' is finished, he offers the coins to Mario and the two protagonists receive the Koopa shell in return. Mario warns them that the shell is unstable and instructs them to throw it onto the beanstalk, which causes it to shrink down. Frătzică thanks Mario for his help and, as a sign of gratitude, invites him and Luigi to a barbecue some other time.

One of the blocks has coins, while the other has a variety of gross junk. Although the hosts are usually the titular Rhett and Link, they were replaced for the one show by Game Grumps hosts Arin Hanson (who dressed as Mario) and Dan Avidan (who dressed as Luigi). The episode, titled "Super Mario Smash Block Challenge ft. Game Grumps", featured Dan coincidentally having items dumped on him in every round.

The two forms of Mario derivative "7 GRAND DAD", both of which reference Fred Flintstone due to the character's origins in a Flintstones bootleg game. "GRAND DAD" is one of the most frequently-recurring elements on the SiIvaGunner music channel.

SiIvaGunner (formerly known as GiIvaSunner) is a YouTube collective known for uploading avant-garde remixes and parodies of video game songs, many of which are from the Super Mario franchise or contain elements from it (along with related series such as the Super Smash Bros. series). Additionally, several of the channel's major elements are Super Mario-related:

  • One of the "main characters" as depicted by the channel is a variation of Mario known as "7 GRAND DAD", who is depicted in two different forms: a recolored, off-model Mario sprite, and Fred Flintstone with Mario's head. The character originates from a bootleg Super Mario game known as “GRAND DAD 3M 原始瑪莉VII” (the Chinese translates to "Primitive Mario") that was in fact a minimally-edited version of The Flintstones: The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy, with the odd Mario graphic originating from another Mario bootleg, Dian Shi Ma Li.
  • The "CG Rap" is a parody of the DK Rap from Donkey Kong 64 in which most of the lyrics are replaced with "coconut gun". Most other remixes and uses of the DK Rap on the channel are based on this parody and/or reference "coconut gun" in a similar style.
  • During the channel's "Christmas Comeback Crisis" story arc (a parody of the Kirby series), a false finale titled "Waluigi's Tacostand" was uploaded, which features the misadventures of Waluigi opening a taco stand and interacting with the channel's other characters.
  • During the channel's "King for a Day" tournament, Wario and Waluigi as a duo and Geno were contestants that participated in the tournament. In its sequel, "King for Another Day", alongside the Super Mario-themed contestants from the past tournament, Donkey Kong was also a contestant in the tournament, based on his incarnation from the Donkey Kong Country cartoon.
  • In addition, their arrangement of the Fossil Falls theme from Super Mario Odyssey was used by Nintendo of Italy in a promotional YouTube video for the game.[72]

The white Toad reappears with the magic carpet after the narrator says "Z" and the Toads fly away.[73]

Smosh

Smosh referencing Mario in their "If Video Games Were Real" video
The Mario segment in the "If Video Games Were Real" video
  • Smosh's 2010 video "If Video Games Were Real" features a parody of Super Mario Bros. Here, Princess Peach is implied to be a prostitute, as her pimp (played by Ian Hecox) demands that Mario (played by Anthony Padilla) "pay up" if he wants to be with her. Mario then proceeds to punch a Brick Block to get a Coin, but instead injures his hand screams, and swears.
  • In Smosh's video "REAL VOODOO DOLL!", the video starts with a frustrated Anthony playing Super Mario Bros., where he constantly loses lives to a Lakitu. Later in the video, Anthony is given a voodoo doll of Ian by an unseen entity who is later revealed to be a Lakitu. Ian asks the Lakitu to give him a voodoo doll of pop singer Ke$ha, but the Lakitu hits him with a Spiny instead. In addition, some Mario plushes and a Super Mario Galaxy poster are also spotted in the video.
  • Several Super Mario-related objects are located around the house where most episodes take place, such as a painting of Yoshi and Yoshi Eggs.
  • One of Smosh's licensed T-shirts is of Yoshi biting into a sign containing his name (in Super Mario-style font).
  • Smosh's "REJECTED MARIO GAMES" video is entirely about made-up Super Mario games that were canceled due to their absurdity, and the beginning shows boxart of several past Super Mario games. Mario Teaches Walking is a parody of Mario Teaches Typing and Mario's Mansion is a fictionalized alpha version of Luigi's Mansion, which shifted focus towards Luigi after Mario said "This game sucks, give it to Luigi." Other games featured include Mario Weight Loss Adventures, Mario Tax Returns, Mario XXX, The Sims: Mushroom Kingdom Edition, Mario Office, Mario Yoga, and Mario Kart: DMV Edition. In the video, Anthony plays Mario and Ian plays Luigi.
  • In the episode "WE'RE IN SUPER MARIO!", Ian and Anthony travel into Super Mario Bros., but Ian proves to be terrible at the game. Upon reaching the end of World 1-1, Ian breaks his legs after failing to reach the Goal Pole, and in Anthony's attempt to reach it, he ends up being impaled on the goal pole instead. Seriously injured, the two of them decide to travel into the game Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball instead.
  • In the episode "SEXTING GONE WRONG!", Mario (played by Anthony) appears as a random character to provide backup nude photos (with the threat of posting them online as part of a defense mechanism) and ends up dying of shock after seeing the nude photos of Timothy (the lead male character in the video, also played by Anthony).

TeamFourStar

Reference to Donkey Kong from Dragon Ball Z Abridged
The Great Ape holding up a barrel like Donkey Kong

TeamFourStar have made a few references to the Super Mario franchise throughout their Dragon Ball Z Abridged series.

  • There is a recurring gag in the series that consists of calling Namekians (usually Piccolo) Yoshis. Some examples includes:
    • In Episode 2, Goku asks Piccolo if he is a Yoshi due to them both being green and having been born from eggs, which Piccolo sarcastically says he is one. Then Goku asks if he can ride him, just like how Yoshis are rideable in most games they appear in.
      • In the Dragon Ball Z Kai Abridged Episode 1, this scene is recreated and shortened a lot, with Goku only asking if Piccolo is a Yoshi, which he answers "Hell yeah".
    • In the Christmas Tree of Might Movie Part 1, when Piccolo first meets Turles, he says that he looks like Goku, while Turles replies that he looks like a Yoshi.
    • In the Lord Slug Movie, when Goku discovers Lord Slug's species, he almost calls him a Yoshi, but gets interrupted by King Kai telling him not to call him a Yoshi, and then proceeds to tell him he's a Super Namekian.
    • TeamFourStar are even selling two shirts featuring Piccolo as a Yoshi, with the second one being called "Piccoloshi's Island" depicting him with a baby Gohan on his back, parodying the video game Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
  • In Episode 4, when Gohan transforms into the Great Ape, music from Donkey Kong plays and he hoists a barrel up, much like Donkey Kong. When he transforms back into Gohan the power-down music from Super Mario Bros. is heard.
  • In Episode 25, when Krillin gets impaled by Frieza's horn, he claims that it's the worst pain he's ever gotten, but then Frieza continues stabbing him multiple other times, which gives Frieza 1-Ups. Also at the end of this episode, there is a parody of Frieza's transformation where he hits a ? Block to get a Super Mushroom that transforms him into his second form. This scene is also accompanied by Super Mario Bros.'s overworld theme.
  • In Episode 28, after Frieza finished the "game" he's playing with Goku, he asks him if he liked the game. Goku then responds that it was okay, but it was no Donkey Kong, which has a "pie level."
  • In the Revenge of Cooler Movie, when Gohan is on his way back to Goku and Krillin, Cooler's henchmen interrupts him and asks him "Well hello, Diddy. Where's Donkey?" Later on, after Salza kicks Gohan away, he says he's going to give the coup de gras to the king of Kongs, referring to Goku.

  • The group's name is a reference to the vines in the Mario Party 5 minigame Leaf Leap and the emphatic suffix "-sauce".[74]
  • The group's logo is a modified version of a 1-Up Mushroom, and one version of the bumper featured at the start of their highlights videos on YouTube incorporates both a Thwomp grunt from Super Mario 64 and the 1-Up sound effect from Super Mario Bros. (both audio clips were later modified due to copyright concerns).
  • The Adventures of Mario & Luigi is a series of redubs of the DIC Entertainment cartoons, typically depicting Mario and Luigi in crude situations while poking fun at the poor quality of the shows' animation.
  • A recurring character in the group's content is Sponge, a parodic third Mario brother who keeps the Mario series cheery and bright by absorbing negative energy. Coincidentally, Sponge's design depicts him with orange clothes, predating the discovery of two unused icons depicting an orange Mario and an orange "S" emblem in the data for Super Mario 3D World.

YouTube Poop

YouTube Poop refers to a style of YouTube videos consisting of randomly edited clips from various sources, usually to nonsensical effect[76]. Among the more popular sources are clips from the Super Mario animated series (particularly Super Mario World and its episode "Mama Luigi"[77]), as well as cutscenes from Hotel Mario, although other Super Mario-related media has been used as sources as well. The phenomenon became significant enough to be acknowledged by some of the creators behind the original material, such as screenwriter Phil Harnage[78] and voice actor Marc Graue;[79][dead link] Graue has even actively participated in the ironic fan community surrounding Hotel Mario. The first ever YouTube Poop, which predates YouTube itself, "I'D SAY HE'S HOT ON OUR TAIL," was based off the The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode Recycled Koopa.[80]

Zach Boucher

It has been requested that this section be rewritten to have excessive information removed for the following reason(s): Section is overly long and goes into too much detail. It's to be expected that there will be references to the Super Mario franchise in videos about them, so stick with the basics.

Canadian YouTuber Zach Boucher, professionally known as SploogeGaming, has made various rap songs and rap battles about the Super Mario franchise. These include the "Intense Super Mario 64 Rap", a rap song about Mario's adventure to save Peach and the Power Stars; "Intense Super Mario Sunshine Rap", another rap song that now centers about Mario's disastrous vacation in Isle Delfino; "Intense Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Rap", a third rap song that highlights Mario's adventure in the game; "Intense Luigi's Mansion Rap", a fourth rap song that centers on Luigi's ghostbusting adventure to save Mario; "Lap One: A Mario Kart 8 Rap", a rap song which highlights the flow of a typical Mario Kart 8 race; "Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Rap Battle Parts 1 & 2", which has various characters from the base Super Smash Bros. roster rap against each other, including Super Mario representatives Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Bowser, and Bowser Jr.; "Super Smash Bros. Rap Battle: DLC Edition", which has all of the DLC characters from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U engage in a rap battle; the "Smashing Dr. Mario Rap Song", which is a rap about Super Smash Bros. from Dr. Mario's perspective; and "Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Rap Battle Part 3," which brings Dr. Mario for a second round of rapping, and includes Wario, Rosalina & Luma, and Diddy Kong as contestants. Zach Boucher has produced "Rage Rap: Rainbow Road", which has him rap about the frustrating course layout of Mario Kart: Double Dash!!s Rainbow Road, while showing gameplay footage of Toad and Toadette from the same game. On October 30, 2019 Zach Boucher released "Luigi's Mansion 3 Rap," which indirectly alludes to Gooigi.

Portrait ghosts such as Biff Atlas, Miss Petunia, Sue Pea, Neville, Lydia, Slim Bankshot, and Vincent Van Gore are mentioned throughout the Luigi's Mansion rap song, and are shown as part of gameplay footage; King Boo makes rare appearances throughout the rap song; foes like Hooktail, Sir Grodus, and Lord Crump are referenced in the Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door rap song; and finally, the Super Smash Bros. rap battles feature numerous references: Mario (voiced by VideoGameRapBattles) says his signature catchphrase "It's-a me, Mario!" at the beginning of his verse, and references his famous status by referring to himself as "the lovable, idolized Nintendo character" and "what everyone wants to be"; Luigi (voiced by Adam Purski) references his Fireball's disruptive capabilities by saying "Believe me, get hit by floating fireballs. That'll just completely f*** up your entire combo", and talks about his up aerial, Luigi Cyclone, and damaging taunt; Bowser (voiced by NemRaps) references his Bowser Bomb and Flying Slam specials (ex: "Hit you with a Ground Pound, cowards catchin' feelings" and "You'll expire when hit by my Flying Slam!"); Bowser Jr. (voiced by DefMatch) starts his rap by saying, "I'm Bowser Jr., Mechakoopas will chew ya!", referencing his down special move, and later on, "I brought my seven brothers hovering above in these Clown Cars", referencing the Koopalings and the mass-produced Junior Clown Cars; Yoshi (voiced by Zach Boucher) references his egg laying capabilities and fast attacks; lastly, Donkey Kong (also voiced by NemRaps) raps about his attack speed and KO power, while referencing his tantrums when the Kongs' Banana Hoard is stolen (ex:"They say I'm going bananas, but I don't feel ya, I kill ya."). Donkey Kong's next line is, "What's a monkey to a gorilla?", possibly referencing Diddy Kong; additionally, Donkey Kong's last few lines are, "Battling this O.G.? Homie, you're history. King Kong ain't got shit on me!", which may reference the Universal City Studios, Inc. v. Nintendo Co., Ltd. lawsuit, where Universal Studios considered Donkey Kong a copyright infringement of King Kong. Later on, the court ruled in favor of Nintendo, saying that, "Donkey Kong is a unique game that does not share any similarities with King Kong".

There is a notable error in "Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Rap Part 1", where Bowser Jr. says "I brought my seven brothers hovering above in these Clown Cars", even though the Koopalings comprise of six males (Larry, Lemmy, Iggy, Morton, Roy, and Ludwig) and one female (Wendy). Additionally, the Koopalings are not currently officially considered Bowser Jr.'s siblings. Bowser Jr. also references his Final Smash and the ability to become Shadow Mario at the end of his verse. "Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Rap: Part 1" is notable for featuring the most Super Mario characters, with 6 in total, while Part 3 features 3, Part 2 features 1, and the DLC Edition features none. Several Super Mario characters also have beats inspired from existing tunes, though with added trap beats: Mario raps to the Hammer theme from Donkey Kong, Luigi raps to the Ground Theme of Super Mario Bros., Peach raps to the Super Star's arrangement from Super Smash Bros., Donkey Kong raps to 25m's theme from Donkey Kong, and Rosalina & Luma rap to Gusty Garden Galaxy's theme from Super Mario Galaxy. Interestingly, Bowser Jr. raps to a dubstep/trap arrangement of "Gourmet Race", a song from Kirby Super Star.
