Mario



Its everybody's favorite Mario

Mario is a fictional character created by Shigeru Miyamoto in 1981, where he first appeared in the video game Donkey Kong on the Arcade's. Despite his lengthly history, Mario is in many ways an undeveloped character, with many details of his accepted biography having been created through a complex lore spawned from the imaginations of comic book artists, cartoon writers, and fans.

Officially, Nintendo producers have stated that Mario's biography is kept simple in order to make the character versatile, and reusable in many different games and situations. Mario is one of the most underdeveloped characters in the Mario universe however, with characters such as Bowser and Princess Peach having more complex, consistent, and unique back stories.

In his first appearance in Donkey Kong, all that was stated was that he was a carpenter who had to save Pauline from Donkey Kong. His third appearance in Mario Bros. changed his profession to plumber, which was more fitting with the pipe theme of that game. Here, Mario and his brother Luigi cleaned out the sewers of Brooklyn. This fact, in addition to both the cartoon series and the movie, led many to believe that Brooklyn was Mario's original home. Newer games and manuals, however, state that he grew up in the fictional Mushroom Kingdom. Some have suggested that the brothers were taken to the "Real World" at an early age, while others disagreed it because it contradicts the other games and the Super Mario 64 guide which was written after Yoshi's Island.

Over the course of his many games, Mario has rescued a number of women from captivity (including Pauline, Princess Peach, and Princess Daisy) and has become regarded as a great hero in the Mushroom Kingdom. There is no definitive timeline for the events in the various games, most of which could be placed in nearly any order. Mario's distinctive look is due to technology restrictions in the mid-'80s: with a limited number of pixels and colors, the programmers could not animate Mario's movement without making his arms "disappear" if his shirt was a solid color; they did not have the space to give him a mouth; and they could not animate hair, so Mario got overalls, a moustache, and a cap to bypass these problems. Mario's creator Shigeru Miyamoto has also stated when interviewed that Mario wears a cap because he finds it difficult to draw hair.

When Mario was first conceived, he looked, more or less, as he does today: a short, plump man with the trademark hat, brown hair, black mustache and overalls. He normally wears blue overalls on top of a red shirt, but such was not always the case. Originally, he wore red overalls on top of a blue shirt â€” almost exactly opposite what he wears now. The American Super Mario Bros. 2 was the first appearance of his modern outfit (the box had the red overalls-on-blue shirt, but the game itself had a blue overalls-on-red shirt); however, it was Super Mario Bros. 3 that standardized today's blue overalls-on-red shirt outfit. (Incidentally, the original Super Mario Bros. has neither in-game; Mario wears a brown shirt with red overalls).Mario's outfit rarely changes, though he's known to change it on occasion if the situation calls for it. For example, in Super Mario Sunshine, Mario wore short sleeves instead of his usual long sleeved shirt, and could even forgo this entirely in favor of a more tropical shirt design worn over his normal shirt, which he always wore with sunglasses.

Mario is the venerable hero of the Super Mario Bros. video game series, as well as various offshoot games. In The Thousand-Year Door, he is on a treasure hunt for seven Crystal Stars, and teams up with Goombella and Koops, among others, during the game. He is voiced by Charles Martinet. Boots - Mario has many Jump skills, which assist him both in and out of battle. In battle, he can attack flying enemies, and out of battle, he uses his Jumping skills to get around. Hammer - Mario's Hammer assists him both in and out of battle, by attacking some enemies who have spikes, and out of battle, he can use it to knock items out of trees, hit blocks, hit switches, etc. Mario also can be equipped with special badges to boost his stats.

Story of Mario: Mario Mario was born on Yoshi's Island under the care of Mary and Ryan Mario. When he was being transported from the hospital to his family via stork, meanwhile an evil Magikoopa Kamek, who was the advisor of King Morton and the babysitter of Prince Bowser, foresaw a prophecy that two young men in red and green would overthrow the Koopa Kingdom. So he set out and snatched Luigi, missing Mario completely. Mario fell down towards Yoshi's Island and landed on Yoshi's back. Yoshi did not know how, but the baby mysteriously knew where to go. Yoshi and his friends took Mario to Morton's castle, where Yoshi and Baby Bowser faught. It was easy, but then Kamek, enraged, made Bowser grow to immense size. It was a tough fight, but in the end, Yoshi won. Yoshi returned the babies to their parents.

For a couple years Mario and the Yoshis bonded, and they tought him to swing and jump; this is why he is such a good acrobat. At the time, however, Bowser was old enough to know one dreadful word: "War". The Koopas declared war on the Yoshis. The Marios' parents, knowing they could save their babies, sent them in a warp pipe to Brooklyn, New York, along with a letter. They were then brought up by two Italian parents named Tony and Sophea Fernandez.

In kindergarten Mario and Luigi were bullied by two kids named Brutus and Jones Scapeli. Their only freinds were a blonde-haired boy named Peter, a red-haired girl named Christie, a shy child named Alex, and his twin brother Bob. One day Mario stood up to the bullies, and punched Brutus in the face. (Later the two changed their names to Wario and Waluigi.) Mario and Luigi were very unpopular throughout elementry, middle, and high school. When Mario was in high school he was very depressed. As a result he started bullying children as well as smoking. His friends also had moved away. When he was in 11th grade he bumped into a girl whose name was Pauline. They talked, and became boyfriend and girlfriend after a while. Luigi was left dateless.

When Mario and Luigi graduated from high school, they went to Yale. Also, Mario got a part-time job at McDonalds. When Mario and Luigi were in college, they heard that there was a murderer on the campass. Mario fought the murderer and won. Pauline rewarded him with a kiss. After graduating from college, Mario and Luigi tried getting jobs as a doctor, a referee, and a chef. Then Mario and Luigi decided to get jobs as construction workers. It turned out that their boss, Foreman Spike, was evil. They defeated their boss. Latr Mario heard about a giant ape on CK island called Cranky Kong. Unfortunately the beast escaped and kidnapped Pauline and fled to the Empire State Building. Mario scaled the building and defeated Cranky Kong, saving Pauline. Mario, thinking he could get some fast bucks, captured Cranky Kong and put him on display. Pauline could not stand this and left him. Unfortunately, Cranky Kong's son, Donkey Kong, saved him and left Mario with nothing.

Mario and Luigi became plumbers. Famous ones at that. But one day while battling strange turtle creatures the Mario Brothers fell into a warp pipe that took them to the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario met Peach and fell in love. Peach was captured by an evil Koopa King named Bowser. Mario rescued her. Later on they got married and had two Kids named Holly and Dyllan...
