      I think they’re so iconographic, we don’t even think about how creepy they really are. Also, thanks to this character art, my brain is recasting Mario as a paunchy, mustachioed John Krasinski.

    Oh shy guys… how I loved to steal their stilts in Yoshis island.

    John should be in the next mario brothers movie…

    I love how are like this really makes you see just how crazy games really are.
