Mario and Dr. Mario: Same guy?
Do we know Dr. Mario is just Mario wearing a doctor suit? Maybe we do, just want to make sure.

- I'm pretty sure... I think this was directly stated in a Nintendo Comics System comic, and then there's the whole thing about Mario and Dr. Mario never showing up at the same time and all of that. Stumpers! 11:45, 3 February 2008 (EST)
That's true. Just seems a bit un-Mario-ish for him to be working as a doctor. But, maybe... CrystalYoshi
- "The Doctor is in... Over his Head" we have a plot synopsis for it if you want to look. Stumpers! 17:47, 3 February 2008 (EST)
Yes, he is the same guy. The following is an excerpt from the Dr. Mario NES manual (p. 3):
Hi everybody! I'm Mario. How's it going? Over the last few years, I've been involved in some pretty wild adventures. Now, believe it or not, I work in the virus research lab at the Mushroom Kingdom Hospital. Today I'm about to begin my research as usual.
Just wanted to note that. Time Questions 14:20, 4 February 2008 (EST)
gallery
should we create a gallery for dr.mario?
Merging
Should we just add this to the Mario article? IT IS THE SAME GUY! User:Mario freak
I agree on that. MarioManiac (talk)
- No. Dr. Mario, despite being just an alter-ego, has his own large series and even was playable in one game. We even have a Featured Article that is about an alter-ego and stated alter-ego only appeared in one episode of the cartoon!

Skin Color
I noticed that in SSBM he has a darker skin color.

- So does Mario, and lots of other subjects look different than their core franchise depictions too. It's just a style thing. - Walkazo 13:15, 25 August 2011 (EDT)
Ssbm art
The ssbm art of him should be added for his "Newer" look. --Goombob XD (talk) 18:51, 14 May 2013 (EDT)Goombob (I had to edit I forgot my signiture ;))
- It should stay the way it is since it's a relatively modern picture of him, and the game it's from came after Super Smash Bros. Melee. Plus, it illustrates him better (the one from Super Smash Bros. Melee has a background).
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 20:38, 14 May 2013 (EDT)
(character)
Do we really need the "(character)" in the title? None of the characters have that in their article title. The plumber version of this guy is "Mario" not "Mario (character)". The guys that have their own series like Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Wario, their main pages are the characters. Why would we need this distinction for Dr. Mario?
