Pumpakin 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 mini-game 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 refers to Super Mario Bros. in that, up until the final castle (in level 8-4), whenever Mario saves the Toads from Bowser in the castles, they always say to him, "Thank you, Mario! But our princess is in another castle!" Interesting to note, in the same toon, Bubs is dressed as Lou Albano.

The Stinkomanual's story also tells the player not to "expect any weepy Princess crap".

Super Mario Rescues the Princess

In this animated short by Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, Mario confronts Bowser on a bridge over lava in his castle à la Super Mario Bros.

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 gives up and 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.
