The Cat Mario Show is a video series available via the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U Nintendo eShop produced and published by Nintendo. It can also be seen on YouTube. It is aimed to educate and entertain younger players.[1] The show is hosted by hand-puppets of Cat Mario and Cat Peach, who present each episode with facts, strategy tips, quizzes, and other content relating to games for the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS, as well as the Nintendo Switch in later episodes.

The series began in Japan on February 26, 2014; in Europe on July 17, 2014; and in North America on December 18, 2014. In 2016, levels created by the actor and actress for Cat Mario and Cat Peach released as event courses in Super Mario Maker. Completing them unlocks Cat Mario and Cat Peach costumes.

List of puppets[edit]

  • Cat Mario is one of the two main hosts of the show. He often misinterprets words (e.g., hearing the word "girly" as "gari," a type of pickled ginger in Japanese cuisine). He also forgets things easily, such as souvenirs for Cat Peach when he travels to E3.
  • Cat Peach is the co-host of the show. One of this show's running gags is whenever something particularly amazing or surprising happens, she often says, "Unbelievable!" Sometimes she takes a role like a tsukkomi performer in the Japanese version, which is reflected generally with the comedy of their mistakes and exaggerations, as opposed to Cat Mario.
  • Captain Toad sometimes appears as an assistant for Cat Mario and Cat Peach, starting in Episode 20. Unlike the other puppets, he does not talk in full sentences.
  • Bowser occasionally interrupts the show by talking about the enemies and traps in certain games, such as Super Mario Maker. He also interrupts the show for advertising Bowser-related things, such as for a T-shirt of himself in the original Super Mario Bros. for Animal Crossing: New Leaf in Episode 13. Unlike the other characters, he is a stuffed animal and not a puppet.
  • Link appears as a host in some episodes with The Legend of Zelda-series-related segments, using his design from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. He speaks with the verbal tic "deyaa," as Cat Mario and Cat Peach speak with "nya."
