1080° Avalanche (GCN)

File:1080Snowboarding.PNG

• On the bottom of Ricky Winterborn's "8-Bit Soul" snowboard, an All-Stars sprite of Mario can be seen (or Luigi on the alternate color of that board).
• In Ricky's biography, it is mentioned that he likes to play Nintendo games such as Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda.
• An NES controller board makes the Super Mario Bros. jump noise when the jump button is pressed and the Super Mario Bros. Bullet Bill sound when landing.
• At the end of the stage Midnight City is an ice sculpture of Mario in a victory pose.

The Adventures of Willy Beamish (Multiplatform)

• The main protagonist, Willy, playing a "Nintari" game entitled "Monster Squad", appears to be a spoof of Super Mario Bros..

Alex Kidd in Shinobi World (Sega Master System)

• During its development, the first boss of this game was "Mari-Oh", who bore a striking resemblance to Mario. (This was likely a way to mock Nintendo, as the Alex Kidd games were all made by Sega, Nintendo's brutal business rival.) By the final game, however, Mari-Oh was replaced with the unrelated "Kabuto" boss.

Angry Birds Space (iOS/Android/PC/Mac)

The second Eggsteroid is a homage to Level 1-1 of Super Mario Bros., with rocks acting as Question Blocks and wood acting as Brick Blocks. The upper "Question Block" contains a pig which moves in a similar manner to the Super Mushrooms. Unlike the original game, the birds can break the ground.

Animal Crossing (GCN)

File:AC Luigi Trophy.jpg

File:AC Mario Trophy.jpg

• When Rover would call Tom Nook, Rover says "It's-a me! Good impression, huh?"
• There are many rare NES that the player can find and play once they are in their house. Among them are several Mario games, including Donkey Kong and Wario's Woods. Super Mario Bros. can be found in the game's coding, though there is no known way to get it legitimately.
• Two items in the game are the rare Mario and Luigi statues.
• While rowing to Animal Island, Kapp'n sings one of a few random songs, and a line to one of them is that he sings better than Mario. After rescuing Gulliver, the player might be told of how he left his pet goldfish in Hyrule and Toad Town.
• There is also a series of Mario-themed furniture that could be unlocked with special cheat codes from Nintendo Power if the player told them to Tom Nook. They include: Warp Pipe, Starman, Fire Flower, Mushroom, Flagpole, Koopa Shell, Cannon (or rather a Bullet Bill Blaster), ? Block, Brick Block, and a Coin; also, there was a wallpaper called "Mushroom Mural" which was an exact replica of the backdrop of the first level in Super Mario Bros., and a carpet called "Block Flooring" which was identical to the brown brick ground Mario walked on.
• There are four Mario-related shirts: the big bro's shirt, a red shirt with Mario's trademark 'M', the lil' bro's shirt, a green shirt with Luigi's 'L', the turnip shirt, on which a pattern resembling vegetables appears, and the toad shirt, which is a red shirt with Toad spots; for some reason, the name in-game incorrectly spells "Toad" with a lowercase t.
• There is a crocodile named Alfonso, who sports the red M shirt, and whose initial catchphrase is "It's-a me". One of the gorillas, Louie, greatly resembles Donkey Kong (who, ironically, wears the lil' bro's shirt). Lastly, if the player sends Bob the code on his E-card, he will write back in a letter claiming he had a dream of the player running around an island with a water pump on their back; this is a reference to Super Mario Sunshine.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf (3DS)

Animal Crossing: Wild World (DS)

File:Mario Luigi ACWW.JPG

• The furniture pieces from the original Animal Crossing are available once more, with some new ones added in. However, this time they must be received from Nintendo by Wi-Fi letters.

• There is an area accessed through a Warp Pipe in WCW Arena named "Internetus" which is somewhat of a tribute to the Mario games. There are POW Blocks, Thwomps, Mushroom platforms, Piranha Plant designs on the floor, and more. Even the music sounds like Mario.
• In the secret entrance to Las Vegum, there is a menhir painted white with green spots, resembling a Yoshi Egg.
• The wall behind the Eiffel Tower in Lutetia is designed to look like the background of a Mario level.
• Near the boss in WCW Arena, there are wall tiles made to look like blocks from Mario games.
• In the night-time area of Venetia, there are giant statues of Donkey Kong, Princess Peach, and a Shine Sprite. Additionally there are two more Shine Sprites in an underground tunnel in the same room.

Marty responds by telling her "the Mario Brothers," and Edna goes on to comment that "the Italians do so many good works".

Banjo-Kazooie (N64/Xbox Live Arcade)

• In the level Click Clock Wood, there is a large beaver named Gnawty who needs Banjo and Kazooie to destroy the rock blocking the entrance to his home. However, he is different in appearance from the Gnawties of Donkey Kong Country and is a reference to them obviously. He mainly resembles Very Gnawty, due to size, color, and strength.
• In the level Bubblegloop Swamp, Tiptup appears and is the conductor of a singing group of turtles.
• In the voice questions at Grunty's Furnace Fun, Donkey Kong and Cranky Kong's names are seen as answers.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts (Xbox 360)

• To show the power of the vehicle editor in the game, a Mario on wheels is shown in the trailer in Nutty Acres. It then gets destroyed by Banjo and Kazooie. The trailer was later edited to remove the portion when the 8-bit Mario is destroyed. However, the shot of it prior to the destroying remains.
• In the opening sequence, when Banjo, Kazooie, and Gruntilda encounter the Lord of Games for the first time, Kazooie at one point remarks that they have been in several games already, and LOG responds by saying that they've been in "nowhere near as many as that Italian gentleman."
• In the Jiggoseum level, on a balcony in the south end of the main area is a pile of giant, metallic dice cubes that Kazooie can pick up and move. Hidden behind them is a large, golden cube with a metallic white question mark on the side of it. This is a quite obvious reference to the "? Blocks" of Super Mario fame.
• The achievement unlocked for opening the "Terrarium of Terror", an outer-space forest themed world, is called "Super Banjo Universe," a parody of Super Mario Galaxy.
• One of the questions given by LOG in the quiz at the end of the game is "Which game featured a Banjo appearance but wasn't a Banjo title?" The correct choice is Diddy Kong Racing, another clear reference to Rare's Donkey Kong series even though they shouldn't be able to.

Banjo-Tooie (Nintendo 64/Xbox Live Arcade)

File:Mario's reference in BT.PNG

• In Grunty Industries, Banjo and Kazooie find Loggo, a toilet from the previous game, who says that he needs unblocking. Kazooie suggests calling a plumber, and says that she thinks Mario's free at the moment. Loggo says he doesn't think Mario does that kind of work anymore. In the Xbox 360 version of the game, the dialogue is altered slightly for legal reasons; Mario's name is replaced with "Italian plumber" instead.
• Bottles' daughter, Goggles, plays with a Donkey Kong doll.
• During the final battle with Hag 1, Gruntilda asks the question "Who appears on the cover art?", and one of the answers is "Banjo, Kazooie, and Donkey Kong".
• In the Inferno section in the Haunted Zone in Witchyworld, there is a picture of a face at the top of the large slide here which many believe looks exactly like Bowser's head.
