I think I never heard of someone born between the 80's and 90's that never played one of Mario's video game, maybe because pretty much everybody loves Mario. He's undeniably the most famous video game character, so here a little tribute from us to this icon.

Detachable Super Mario inspired potted piranha plants
via techi.com
The Nintendo Super Mario game was all the rage back in the 80’s and early 90’s, it was for many kids a Saturday morning tradition to sit on the floor and fight for Mario’s love, Princess Peach. Those kids are now all grown up, many with kids of their own but are often reminded of those fond memories by awesome items that take us back in time. If you are that grown up kid, the detachable Super Mario inspired potted piranha plants is a treasured find.
Looking back, technology was a lot simpler, although at the time it did not seem that way, if you had a Nintendo system you were cool and many feet would trample the carpet within your family homes’ living room. Today, we are even more entrenched with technology and have an array of gaming systems to choose from including the classic Nintendo, although it has had quite an update since the days of cartridges.

The Evolution Of Mario
via noupe.com
There aren’t many video game characters that are in the consciousness of the general public, however Mario certainly has made great strides in this area. It’s rare to meet someone who has not heard of the Italian plumber named Mario, but those who don’t play video games often may be unaware of his humble beginnings.
Mario was not the main character in his first video game appearance. You may be surprised to know that he wasn’t a plumber, and his name wasn’t Mario either. He made his first appearance in the 1981 pioneering Nintendo arcade game Donkey Kong. Mario’s character was called ‘Jumpman’ and he was a carpenter rather than a plumber. ‘Jumpman’ had to jump over barrels that were being thrown by Donkey Kong in order to save a damsel in distress (which would later be called Princess).

The latest platformer to star Nintendo’s moustachioed icon combines the clever, three-dimensional level design and graphical polish of the Super Mario Galaxy games with the bite-sized sweetness of entries in the Super Mario Bros. series.
