Mario Family is NOT your average game. In fact, it is not a game at all! Just what IS this strange game? In 1978, Maruzen, an important Japanese sewing machine manufacturer, changed its name to Jaguar Sewing Machine Co. This eventually became Jaguar
International Corportation. In 2000, Jaguar launched the first ever sewing machine to be operated by a Nintendo Gameboy: the JN-100. Another more recent model, the JN-2000, also works with a Gameboy.
The way that these models work is that they receive instructions from the Gameboy, and with these instructions embroider special designs onto fabric. The game that Jaguar created for use with these sewing machines was called Mario Family.
The Mario Family cartridge had 32 patterns stored in it. Here are the patterns:
- Two designs of Mario standing and holding up two fingers on his right hand
- Two designs of Yoshi standing with a grin on his face
- Two designs of Luigi standing with one hand in the air
- A design of Princess Peach standing and looking surprised
- A design of Wario looking crafty
- A design of Mario with a Wing Cap, landing with one foot down
- A design of Mario's head and hand in front of a disc with a star
- A design of Yoshi standing on his toes, looking very happy, with a star
- A design of Boo
- A design of a Cheep Cheep looking very full
- A design of a Paratroopa
- A design of a Koopa Troopa
- A design of a small and a large Monty Mole
- A design of a Swoop
- A design of a Goomba walking
- A design of an angry Paragoomba
- A design of a Banzai Bill
- A design of a Rex
- A design of a Spike Top
- A design of a Blooper
- A design of some kind of fish
- A design of the 3-Up Moon
