You’re trying to tell me a baby starred in that game? A literal baby, fresh out of the womb? Get your math straight.

Welcome to back pain, Mario.

I am the same age as mario… i have a shirt that says made in 85. Mario is 3 months older than me… Im getting to the top of the hill.

I don’t think mario came out of the womb as an adult with a mustache
InvalidName2@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
And yet you still play video games, curious.

This meme is a lie. The first appearance of Mario was donkey kong in 1981.
razzazzika@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
Yeah… true. My shirt is wrong too. Its been 40 years since Super Mario Bros on the NES, but there was Donkey Kong in 81 and Mario Bros in 83.
carrylex@lemmy.world 6 months ago
uhm anyway belated happy birthday :)

My 40th is in 3 months. Mario is 3 months older than me.
Nikls94@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Happy 40th Mario! Birthday Bros. Entertainment!
Someone definitely got a stroke making this.

Nintendo makes great games but they are becoming very greedy
TachyonTele@piefed.social 6 months ago
When the OGs are retiring and dying off, the next generation is always greedy for their money.

Shame about Nintendo becoming such a shitty company though...

The fact that they killed a few emulators kills them for me

Nintendo’s always been litigious and controlling of their brand. What they haven’t been (until recently) is price-gouging peddlers of derivative schlock resting on their laurels. They used to be afraid of low-quality games and rehashes diluting their brand (they witnessed the carnage of 1983). Now they just don’t care.
Zorque@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I’m sure when they were a hanafuda maker they were a little less litigious…
Tuxman@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
Couldn’t agree more
Good thing we have 40 years of history to play through instead of giving them new money 😁
taiyang@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Given their lawsuits, emulation is 100% the right way to piss them off. Lol

Was just playing this on my Famicom earlier. :D

It’s just a picture? Or is there more to the post?
TachyonTele@piefed.social 6 months ago
I still have the Mario35 game. Though it's not playable. But i do have the 3D All-stars game, and it works great. So stupid of them to sell that as fomo. They could've been taking in money for years on that.
prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 months ago
Even worse is that they just announced that they’re releasing a Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 collection (and it’s $70 on the eShop).
So if you got 3D All Stars, you only got Galaxy 1, and if you want to play 2 on a modern system (without emulation), then you need to buy 1 again.
Psythik@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Low key kinda glad they made it a FOMO game cause the game fucking sucks, so when I sell it for hundreds of dollars in a couple of years I won’t feel bad about it at all.
TachyonTele@piefed.social 6 months ago
How did it suck? It's three critically acclaimed games for the price of one.
Tuxman@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
You want a ripoff?! The 25th Wii game! It was straight up a SNES rom of All-Stars (and not even the revision that included Mario World) 😅
PerfectDark@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I’m a sucker for a slip-case, though. And this one looks really nice!
TachyonTele@piefed.social 6 months ago
I bought that at a pawn shop for $20 back then.
ghostlychonk@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Are they just talking about Super Mario Bros.? Because Mario is like 44 now.
TachyonTele@piefed.social 6 months ago
Yes. Super Mario Bros (pictured) came out in 1985.
That was 40 years ago.
jj4211@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Right, but it says “Mario”, and that was not the first game that featured the character.
the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
Donkey Kong came out in 1981. Mario is 44.
